History
Established in 1906.
Located in the heart of Aztec’s Historic District, The Leanor is more than a restored venue and Airbnb—it’s a place rooted in legacy and community. Named in honor of my mother, Eleanor Kelly, a dedicated nurse, and my grandmother who shared her name, the building reflects their values of hard work and service. Built in 1906 during Aztec’s railroad boom, it showcases modest yet refined brick architecture with original woodwork and decorative cornices. I purchased and began restoring the building in 2022 to preserve its history and create a space for connection, celebration, and renewal. The Leanor is where heritage and hope meet.

The Leanor is more than its historic brick walls—it’s a symbol of belief in Aztec’s future and a commitment to building a resilient, inclusive local economy. Built in 1906 and lovingly restored in 2023, The Leanor now serves as a gathering place where people come together. On the first floor, the Wines of the San Juan Tasting Room & Wine Bar offers a welcoming space to enjoy local wines, while upstairs guests can stay in our beautifully appointed four-bedroom apartment that blends modern comfort with timeless charm.
Aztec itself is a special destination, surrounded by thousands of miles of hiking, mountain biking, and horseback riding trails. Visitors can enjoy vibrant public art, great local food, world-class fly fishing, and the internationally recognized Aztec Ruins National Monument. The Leanor is more than a venue or a place to stay—it’s a space for celebration, connection, and renewal, where every guest becomes part of a story still being written.
