Comfortable upscale Hotel in Old Town Albuquerque.

This is an upscale hotel in Old Town Albuquerque with delightful southwest decor, very comfortable bed, high quality linens, good layout for bathroom and closet/prep area. Service staff was excellent. Walking distance to old town shopping and restaurants. Complimentary valet service is appreciated. The restaurant in Hotel had good live entertainment and excellent Margaritas!

The property is very unique and authentic New Mexican and the staff is very friendly and accommodating however the pool is shared with the neighboring hotel and isn’t kept very clean also during our whole stay of 3 days only one elevator was working with a lot of hotel guests so long waits for the elevators.

Good and bad

Overall, a great location with a great view and near to Old Town. The hotel has a restaurant and bar which was ideal for me. The only things I would say to improve are some things in the room did not work well. The A/C buttons did not work, meaning I could not make the room hotter, colder, could not adjust temp, etc. The buttons were just like pressing nothing. For a $200 per nite hotel, this is not acceptable in August! I reached out to the front desk but it was hours before they got back to me and by then I was ready for bed. The shower the next morning also took 10 minutes on FULL HOT to even *begin* to be lukewarm and that is stretching it. It was barely tepid and I froze taking a shower. Again, for such a pricey hotel, not a good feature. BUT the views, restaurant, location, etc. make this hotel a great spot and I would stay again, but fix your basic shower/electrical appliances please? And be in touch sooner than 3 hours after someone reaches out?

Our family of four stayed in the room with two double beds for two nights. The room had a one cup keurig machine, a smaller than usual fridge, and no microwave. The double beds were very firm. All linens were clean and crisp. There are hard floors in the rooms which lends to the cleanliness. Our room was on the north side and had a beautiful view of the mountains and Westside so we got to watch sunrise and sunset. Hot air balloons were up and a couple sailed by the hotel. This would be a great place to stay during the Balloon Fiesta. The rooms on the south side of the building have balconies. We enjoyed the clean spaces and conveniences like cold bottled water at the pool. Sawmill Market is across the street as has tons of options for food and drinks. One elevator was inoperable and the other holds only nine people snugly. During our stay, the second elevator stopped working and we had to walk up to our 8th floor room. It was repaired but with two large weddings and other guests, I used the stairs a few times. The pool is shared with the adjacent hotel. It is 5ft at the deepest so it’s great for families. There are many shaded places with chairs and loungers. There is poolside service for food and drinks and plenty of towels. There are bathrooms in the pool area. All of the staff were incredibly kind and helpful. Parking is easy with lots all around the building.

The hotel was nice. Check in was great. Guy was super nice and accommodating. I had just driven 10 hrs from San Diego and was driving 10 the following day taking my daughter, her dog and her car to Oklahoma State University. When we got in late I was going to jump in the shower before bed but the shower wasn’t getting hot so I figured I’d just wait til morning before getting on the road for another -0 hr drive. No hot water at all. On check out I told them there was no hot water and they said some of the rooms had been reporting it. I asked that the manager call me and she did. She was apologetic and said she credited me room service (roughly $50) and the $26 hotel service fee. It was a nice gesture but man I couldn’t put a price tag on a hot shower after that drive. Sort of soured me on the experience
