    We had a very good experience while staying in this hotel. I was expecting some things to be not so good because of a lot of the negative reviews but for the most part, we had a good stay. Which I'm thankful for because we spent more time in this hotel room than in any other before. It's nice to know you can just hang out when you don't feel like doing most of the activities you had planned. We came in around 3pm, just to check to see if we could check-in early. If not, we had plans, but luckily Jenna was able to finagle a room for us. YAY!!! We took a little siesta and then enjoyed the rest of our night out. First things first though and when you gotta go, you gotta go. Unfortunately, the toilet never stopped running after that first flush and then would not flush at all. We called the front desk and within 5 min someone was up in our room, fixing the toilet. Within 10 min, he was done. So polite and professional. We didn't have a problem with the toilet for the remainder of our stay. We also stopped at the front desk on our way back in Friday night to ask for another box of Kleenex. Two boxes were delivered to our room within 3 min! This has never happened to me, even in fancy, expensive hotels. So I was quite impressed. Our room was clean and well appointed. I loved the shower, especially the doors and the water pressure. I hated the sink handle but hey it's just not my style. The love seat in Courtyards is my fave and we spent a good time sitting on it this trip. The bed was so comfy and it even had foam bumpers in front of the wooded headboard. Lovely! The main lobby and the courtyard in the middle of the hotel are so cute. There are a lot of seating areas, including a roaring fireplace. We were quite disappointed that the fire pits outside were never turned on, even though we were told they would be, but tbh we didn't need to sit outside in the cold anyway. We didn't eat here but the eating area looks clean and fresh and we saw people enjoying themselves. The location is good. The freeways in this area do a weird no exit on or off so it was a bit confusing at first, but you get used to it. We just started avoiding the highways completely and never had to drive more than 15 min to places, including Old Town and Los Poblanos Ranch. Overall, I'd recommend this property!

    The lobby is nice, and it's great to have a pseudo restaurant and bar, but the rooms were pretty bad. Dust everywhere, I complained and they cleaned it the first day, but the next cleaning was so bad, more dust, forgot to leave me soap for the sink, did not refresh the glasses, and worst of all, I found a roach one night. My allergies were so bad in the room, and it's because of all the dust. The shower they gave me was a handicapped shower with a rusted drain. I usually stay at a different Marriott, but it was booked. When I saw the roach, I decided to change hotels and my usual was open. My first night at my usual . . . No sneezing. I have to say, the staff here was some of the nicest hotel staff I met. They seemed to understand and gave me 7000 points. Also, my sister and her husband had the room next to me and were unable to close the sliding bathroom door because the floor was uneven.

    Overall pulling up to the hotel, it has the classic Albuquerque exterior sort of Pueblo style that's cool compared to a standard modern build. Check in was smooth but the receptionist was very short meaning there was zero conversation. Didn't ask the standard Marriott "have you stayed with us before?" "What are you in town for?" or share the amenities or breakfast info etc. Not that I care, it was just an observation I made because I'm so used to the speech I can recite it myself. I always check for bedbugs before I even bring my suitcase in and found none- that's always good. Checking out the room you can just tell it isn't the cleanest. Random mystery stains on the couch pillows, on the cheap (and peeling) wallpaper, and every baseboard had separated from the laminate flooring creating gaps into the walls. Go to sleep and overall, bed and pillows were actually comfy. Wake up this morning and hop in the shower. Shower is already kind of tight but some guy (much smarter than I am I am sure) decided it would be great to add two built in shelves to the shower surround to make the space even tighter. As I was contortioning around the shower, I ultimately knocked off one of the shower shelves from the surround and it appears it was being held onto the surround by caulking and the good lords blessing. Get home tonight and there is a friendly roach in the room and I can't catch the damn thing to kill it. He is using the cracks in the baseboards to go into the walls so I assume there's more in there. Needless to say, it will work in a pinch but I will never book here again. Hope your stay is better than mine! One last thought. If you normally use the toilet in the dark you're going to love this place because if you turn on the bathroom light, the fart fan automatically kicks on (no separate switch) and it sounds like Elon Musk is setting off on another rocket adventure. Plus- speaking of Elon- they do have a full Tesla charging station to the rear if that's important to ya.

    I booked this hotel for our last night of vacation. We arrived from Santa Fe and needed a place to stay our final night in order to visit friends in Albuquerque. I booked the room with the Marriott app using points on my phone and was able to secure a good points redemption rate thanks to my Marriott status and loyalty. This also gained us early check in as well as guaranteed late check out. Brianna at the front desk was super friendly and attentive. Service from staff was friendly the duration of our visit. The hotel looks like a Spanish Pueblo building and the exterior condition and grounds were tidy and pleasant. It's located in a convenient position off the access road with restaurants a short walk away. Parking is ample and well lit. The indoor pool was clean and enjoyable. The interior courtyard is beautiful with flowers, a fountain, shaded tables and sofas. Chris and I purchased lunch from the deli down the road and enjoyed our picnic in the courtyard. Our room on the second floor faced the back of the hotel. We had two queen beds and a small balcony. The room was spacious and clean. The beds were comfortable. The ceilings are low and this is by no means a luxury property but for a such a small points redemption or paying the cash rate of $159 it's a good value. The shower is a bit narrow but perfectly useable. Minor quibbles include no safe in the room. I was therefore forced to carry my work laptop everywhere since my employer requires it to be secured 24/7. The carpet in common areas is worn and needs replacing. The location is convenient for visiting the Sandia tramway and just 18 minutes in light traffic to old town. It's also convenient for booking a sunrise balloon ride. We recommend this hotel!!

    Very clean hotel! I loved the bright lightening in the hallways. The hot tub was great! Very nice outdoor pool. I swam in ( 70 degrees in March). There were plenty of pillows, and the bed was super comfortable.

    Our toliet over flowed onto the floor, the decor was dated, the mattress was soooo hard (I don't mind firm but this was hard) so hard that my shoulder would fall asleep anytime I laid on my side. I kept waking up shifting positions. I could not get comfortable. My kids also didn't sleep either which also drove me crazy. Then I would go to the bar at 4:30 (when they said it would open) but it did not open ... waited til 4:50 when I finally gave up and went to restoration pizza across the parking lot. Never again! I'm a huge Marriott fan but this one did not meet that standard.

    Room was very clean. Completely remodeled. Gorgeous room with all new amenities. The restaurant and bar was great. Wife had the chicken Caesar salad and I had the Rueben sandwich both were great. The Bartender "Anita" was so sweet. She had such a personality that you felt like long time friends. The courtyard was beautifully kept. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I know I'm sounding like I'm putting too many nice things about this place, but I haven't found a negative at all. This has been a great stay followed with a great time here. Hold up on that car wash gentlemen.. housekeeping started knocking at 8:30, then again at 9:15.. then started vacuuming the hall right outside the door, with the guest across from us with a do not disturb sign on their door. We wanted to sleep in, check out was at 11. However, up at 8:30 and out the door. Poor housekeeping management.

    Affordable and Comfortable Stay Near Old Town Albuquerque - With a Few Caveats…read more We stayed at Sandia Peak Inn - Old Town ABQ (a Howard Johnson by Wyndham), and I'll start by saying this: the price was definitely right. While it's not a luxury hotel, we more than got our money's worth, and I'll give an honest, balanced review. One of the main reasons we chose this property was the availability of EV charging. They offer both a J1772 and a Tesla destination charger, with a $10 nightly fee to use them. That was a great convenience and worked without issue. We booked the accessible oversized king room, which was very spacious, nicely decorated, and included a comfortable bed. We thought it had a sofa but found a day bed instead. The room also featured a small work table and a nice easy chair--well equipped for a short stay. The parking lot is tight, with narrow spaces and limited room, but our reserved EV charging spot helped avoid problems. Breakfast was modest but acceptable. There was a waffle maker, juice machine, coffee, peanut butter (the only visible protein), various breads, jams, and some overripe bananas. Vegetarian-friendly, but not very filling. One downside we experienced was related to smoking. Although our room was non-smoking, the moment I stepped outside in the morning, someone was smoking nearby. While I don't know how frequent this is, it would be preferable if the property were entirely smoke-free, especially near room entrances. The neighborhood felt like classic Old Town Albuquerque. I didn't feel unsafe, but I wouldn't recommend walking the area late at night. The exterior of the property has been nicely styled with Southwestern décor, which adds charm despite the budget-conscious operations. In short: everything wasn't perfect, but it all worked--and for the price, we walked away satisfied.

I'm moving cross country - WA to FL. I've driven cross country several times moving east to west and west to east plus I'm an army brat so I have lots of experience moving, long drives, and hotels. With that in mind take this review as you will.... I was looking for a hotel that accepted a cat, had a spot to park a moving van and towed car, and had a hand held shower. I called 5 hotels this is where I ended up & below are the results. 1. It is not a place for travelers who are moving and towing vehicles - it's in a residential area. If you are experienced driving large vehicles you will be fine otherwise you might want to stay somewhere else where it's easier to get a parking spot. If you are driving a pickup or car there's plenty of parking. 2. I requested a room with a hand held shower as always this seems to stump hotels when I call so it took them awhile to discover they had a ADA room with tub and hand held shower head. Take a look at the shower pics do you see what's missing and what the issues are? 2a. The hand held shower head is hung so high you can't use it when seated on the shower bench! Which defeats one of my 3 reasons for picking this hotel. ‍ 2b. There's no tub. So their guide sheet the clerk referred to when I called is wrong. 2c. The shower curtains (there's 2) don't reach the floor so the entire floor of the bathroom will get wet. Especially as the shower floor and bathroom floor are not graded to allow for the water to drain to the shower or the drain in the middle of the bathroom floor. 3. The drapes were open and the ac was off so the room was hot. The gauge says 76. I lowered it to 66, it's been 90 minutes and the room is still warm. So if you are as me and sensitive to hot weather be warned. It doesn't make alot of sense to have the shades open in a hot climate especially when the view is a parking lot. 4. The tv remote is missing. As I am a paranoid sort I called the front desk immediately not wishing to be charged for it. They offered to bring another which was nice but I can live without tv for one night. 5. The room and bathroom is large/spacious if you have kids or have accommodating devices like walkers you will have plenty of space. 6. The room appears to be very clean but I didn't take a black light to it; some things are better to be left. 7. Breakfast was interesting. 8. There is only one luggage cart and it rather large which is an issue as it doesn't fit well in the second elevator. When I pointed it out to the desk clerk he said oh use the other elevator. Umm sir when you press the elevator call button you get the elevator you get you don't get to pick as both don't appear. He seemed stumped by that. Recommendations - hotel to purchase several airport luggage carts they are more easily stored and maneuvered.

When we walked onto the patio and took in those sweeping views of the Sandias, I was ready to love this place. Los Poblanos has all the ingredients of a truly special dining experience: a gorgeous setting, a thoughtful farm-to-table ethos, and a menu that promises something above the ordinary. Which is exactly why the evening's annoying missteps were so disappointing. Service was well intentioned but unpolished. Our waiter seemed overwhelmed and, at times, unfamiliar with the menu -- a problem when guests are asking genuine questions about the food and wine. We ordered bread which came before our drinks were served. Wine service was inconsistent. I ordered an Albariño by the glass - 6 oz. My sister ordered the Cabernet listed on the menu as a recommended pairing for her entrée, priced at $11. After we placed our drink orders, the waiter returned to inform her that the menu price was incorrect -- the wine was actually $18. She agreed to proceed. He then asked whether she wanted "a half glass or a full glass," which is an oddly imprecise question at a restaurant whose menu specifies pours in 3, 6, and 9 oz increments. She said half glass. What arrived was 3 oz of wine in a small serving carafe, which the waiter simply poured into her glass -- no bottle presented, no taste offered. My own Albariño, by contrast, was brought to the table in the bottle with a proper taste before pouring. The disparity in service between the two of us was striking. A simple, clear statement -- "3 oz of this wine is $18, not $11; would you still like it?" -- would have resolved everything cleanly. Instead, the vague "half or full glass" framing left my sister without the information she needed to make an informed choice. For what it's worth, the wine itself was extraordinarily tannic -- borderline undrinkable -- and I would have sent it back. My nephew ordered a top shelf whiskey. The waiter told him "we don't have that". My nephew said "it's on your menu" to which the waiter responded "oh, let me check on that". There seemed to be too many instances of the waiter running back to the bar to check on stuff. Anyway, it was available. The waiter apologized. We ordered the bread which was served before our drinks arrived. Food took about an hour which is fine - I don't have an issue with that but during that time we never saw the waiter again. I ordered the soup of the day - potato and leek which was delicious. Followed by the blackberry salad, which was my main course. Both arrived simultaneously, with the salad placed in front of me and the soup set to the side as an afterthought. At a restaurant at this price point, the expectation that soup precedes salad is not an eccentricity -- it is simply correct service. When I expressed my surprise, the servers seemed genuinely puzzled, which suggests this may be a training gap rather than an isolated incident. As for the salad itself -- it was pleasant, but pleasant is not enough here. The blackberry salad was the kind of thing you might enjoy at a well-run casual chain: competently assembled, inoffensive, and forgettable. At a farm-to-table restaurant with access to exceptional local ingredients, I expect the plate to reflect that -- more intentional presentation, more layered flavors, something that is more elevated than what was presented. This one didn't. The gap between the setting and what landed on the table was wider than it should have been. My sister and nephews ordered the filet mignon and rib eye. Both arrived pre-sliced -- a presentation trend that has made its way into fine dining, though one that divides opinion. My concern, beyond personal preference, is practical: sliced meat loses heat faster, and at roughly $80 per entrée, guests should receive their steak in the condition that best showcases it. The quality was good, not exceptional. Los Poblanos is a restaurant with genuine promise and a setting that few can match. The concept is right; the execution needs work. The issues I encountered -- inconsistent wine service, course sequencing, and a discombobulated waiter-- are not kitchen problems. They are fixable. I hope the restaurant takes that seriously, because the bones here are excellent and the experience should be too.

It does make it confusing when you bring in your own stuff, but I managed :) Staff here is great, accomodating and very friendly. What sells me on this place is the location. Situated on a golf course, the views are great and if are up early enough you can see the hot air balloons. The hotel is set back from the main street so for the most part, it's a very quiet area. (I say most part because you do get the occasional tee time announcement over the loud speaker but it wasn't bad). You are also close to a lot of restaurants and shopping. Getting into the city is also easy, maybe 20-30 minutes away. So... the real question. Would I stay here again? If I am traveling solo or with my wife, yes. As a family, probably not. I am not sure what other room styles they have but with no microwave and only a mini fridge, I need something larger for the family.

Located about 30 minutes north of Albuquerque and 45 minutes south of Santa Fe, made it easy to spend time in either. We were able to check in early, which was so nice after an early travel morning. Our room was large and included the classic hotel amenities, including waters. We were staying slightly during the off season, so two pools were open, which was fine as it wasn't that busy and it didn't get hot until about noon. Due to the location of the resort, it is easiest to eat at the property and there are a couple of options available: The Corn Maiden - nicer dining experience, Santa Ana Cafe - casual sit-down, Rio Grande Lounge - bar and bites, and Plaza - pool cafe. During our visit the Plaza pool restaurant was only open on Saturday. We tried in-room dining for breakfast one morning, as we were up early, the eggs had little to no flavor, and a couple of our items were forgotten/late. Not a huge deal as we understood they were training a lot of staff during the time of our stay. Overall, the food throughout all the dining options was just okay, and if there were more dining options close by, I would probably go there. The restaurants all tasted the same and there didn't seem to be much variety. It would be nice if at least one of the dining options was a different kind of cuisine to bring some variety. Overall, we enjoyed our stay, the staff was so friendly and helpful. There are plenty of activities to do at the resort and we loved that they had nightly s'mores. The room was great, but food could be better.

The resort is in Santa…read moreAna Pueblo, which is about 25 minutes outside Albuquerque and another 50 minutes from Santa Fe (though with the conference schedule, I was unable to make it to Santa Fe). The property itself is beautiful and expansive, sits on Tamayame land, and at the outset of the conference a member of the Native American tribe welcomed us and shared about the land and setting. The property has with multiple event spaces, an on-site trail, a large gym, and several pools. It is a fairly large resort (our room was at one end, so it was about a 7-10 minute walk to the main lobby area). Each day began with a large breakfast buffet, and lunch was similarly well done. One of the highlights was being able to sit outside during meals at large tables overlooking the grounds, mountains, trees, and fresh air made for a really peaceful setting. For breakfast, I enjoyed the red/green chilies chilaquiles (New Mexican style breakfast), it was very flavorful and I enjoyed trying but was very spicy/heavy. From a conference and events perspective, the resort is very impressive. There is a large main conference room with a stage, and the room can accommodate over 100 people (at round tables), along with many smaller breakout rooms. Over two evenings, we attended events at different venues on the property, one about a 10-minute walk away (with hotel mini-bus transportation available), and another closer to the main area under a tent. The more distant venue was quite large and set apart, likely used for weddings and larger celebrations. That evening included a buffet dinner, DJ, dancing, and multiple bar setups. The second evening closer to the main hotel was a seated dinner under a tent, with music and performances in a more contained setting. There is also a nice bar and restaurant in the lobby, as well as another more casual restaurant by the pool. Given time constraints, I was not able to fully take advantage of all the amenities (including the spa, horseback riding, and longer trail walks), but I would absolutely recommend this property. It is incredibly scenic, serene, and feels immersed in nature, and I would gladly return.

And...wow..the interior of this hotel was magnificent! I loved the very interesting feel of it. Food for the eyes for sure! The bartender at a lobby greeted me immediately and he was very friendly and helpful with some food and drinks information there. I had a good chat while enjoying my evening snacks for sure! I had a guac + salsa...and I didn't expect it to be anything different..but..wow..the way they dressed the food..it felt worth more than $12 price tag for sure! Sorry, I forgot my phone in my car but...possibly the fanciest dressing of guac and salsa order I had in the longest time! The only minus was you have to find street parking or go valet (but..if you aren't there to stay..its probably not worth paying for the valet). Street parking is also likely harder to find downtown on weekdays. I got super lucky with one last parking spot that opened up across the street on a weekend day evening..so I snagged it and headed into the hotel. I thought this was a good way to check out the hotel for sure! I think if I needed to use up my quarterly credits from my credit card, this was a wonderful way to spend it for sure!

On a busy convention night, the dining room was packed, yet the energy felt festive rather than frantic. Thanks to a well-timed reservation, my party settled in comfortably despite the initial blast of aggressive air-conditioning--a smart move after last week's heat, though the growing crowd of happy diners soon brought the room to a more pleasant temperature. Service was excellent from the start. We were warmly greeted by the hostess, a supervisor, and our server, setting a tone of genuine care that never wavered. The pacing was near-perfect: attentive without hovering, with drinks refreshed proactively and plates cleared at just the right moments. To begin, I ordered the green chile beef stew. It arrived promptly, hot and deeply flavorful, with tender beef and that signature New Mexican green chile heat that lingers just enough to wake up the palate. For my birthday libation, the S'mores Old Fashioned was a delightful twist--smoky, sweet, and dangerously smooth. The entrées showed Char's Southwestern strengths. The enchiladas were deeply comforting, while the carne asada arrived perfectly grilled with robust flavor. Both were elevated by the bright, creamy Mexican Street Corn on the side--charred kernels, cotija, and a hint of lime that cut through the richness beautifully. We closed the evening with the new arroz con leche from the updated dessert menu. Warm, cinnamon-kissed rice pudding topped with a generous scoop of cinnamon ice cream proved to be the ideal sweet finale--comforting yet refined, with contrasting temperatures that made every bite exciting. From the thoughtful service to the consistent execution of both classics and new offerings, Char once again proved why it's a go-to spot for special occasions. If you're in Albuquerque and want elevated NM dining, Char meets the need.

I really like that parking is included and not an extra charge like some hotels. We were located near a Target and lots of restaurants as well. Our room was located on the 12th floor and it was busy as the last ever Gathering of Nations was taking place at the fairgrounds. The employees whom helped us were very nice and efficient and checked up on us with a phone call once we got settled in our room. As for the room itself, it was perfect for what we needed. We had a great view of the city. The only cons we had was the HVAC system was not working properly. The room was very stuffy and no matter what temp we lowered it to (went all the way down to 60) the A/C did not kick in). The fan was working but not blowing any cold air (the hallway's A/C was working). I reported it to the front desk upon check out. The other item was the shower's knobs were located on the opposite side of the shower head and I had never seen that before. It was very awkward as the glass sliding door does not open on the side with the shower head. I felt that it was unsafe as you turn on the water but cannot feel the temp of the water cause it is on the other side. Overall, stay was good and it was pretty quiet other than hearing a couple of guests out in the hallway. I would stay here again if in the area.

They gave us free WiFi and two water bottles but no microwave oven in the room and no mini refrigerator. What sets this place apart from every other hotel is that they have quiet rooms with concrete floors and thick walls. You don't hear much of anything. The AC controls are very functional and WiFi connection is flawless. The staffs treated us nicely since we are Bonvoy Gold Member. Pretty decent hotel IMO!

We brought our 2 little puppies with us and even they were comfortable here. Although it was close to the highway, we didn't hear the noise. Breakfast is your usual hotel offering. All the staff we encountered were very friendly and helpful. The elevators worked well while we were there. There are restaurants nearby including PF Chang's, which is just a skip and a hop away. If there is one thing that is a negative about this hotel, there is no grassy area around for the pets. It's all rocks. Other than that, we would not mind staying here again if we are ever in the area.

Definitely in need of an update for the price we paid but that wasn't the issue. The air conditioning did not work in our room. We alerted the night clerk after going in our room and she told us there were no other rooms available and that maintenance would look at it the next morning. That's it. We asked if there was a fan we could borrow. Nope. We had to go out and buy our own fan to help circulate the air in our room. The next morning we had a knock on our door at 8am. It was maintenance wanting to fix the AC my sister was in the shower so I told him he would have to wait about 30 minutes and we'd be done. We left for our event and returned around 3:30pm. AC was still not working. We contacted the front desk and asked for management, no manager on site but the front desk would send them a message. Crickets. About an hour later I contacted Hilton corporate and surprisingly we had a manager at our door about 15 minutes later. She affirmed that the AC was not working and that she'd been told it was fixed. She called maintenance while in our room and he walked her thru a few things. The unit did finally cycle on and blew cold air for about 3-4 hours. When we returned from dinner it wasn't working again. We called the front desk and requested another room because we had been told earlier that would be an option the second night. But nope. No other rooms so we had to sleep in the heat again. We were told the next morning when checking out that we would be refunded for those 2 nights but we would have to go through Corporate get it. So we paid for our rooms. Once home, I contacted corporate for our refund and I received an email from the general manager of the hotel in Albuquerque telling me he did not believe us and that no refund would be given. I contacted Hilton corporate again and all they did was reimburse me for ONE night and give me 10k points. Really??? Don't stay at this hotel! Terrible customer service and not worth the price anyway. Furthermore Hilton corporate should have stood behind their customer!
