Elaine's is absolutely incredible. A beautiful building full of antiques and comfortably furnished. The architect is stunning. Abbey runs the place and is a wonderful person. She cooks a mean breakfast also. I would highly recommend Elaine's and hope to stay here again in the future

Clean and serene! Abby and Stella are great hosts - thoughtful and friendly. I had a great nights sleep and a beautiful morning in the dog-friendly room. The accommodations are homey (in a fancy way) and unique. I loved hearing about the family business! Hope to return with my mom!

Welcome to Elaine's!

We just spent 2 WONDERFUL days at Elaine's in the little village of Cedar Crest, which is snuggled into the East Mountain region of New Mexico. This gorgeous and spacious B&B is an idealized version of a log cabin, but with all the modern amenities, and it exudes warmth and charm. Our room (the one with the bunnies carved into the headboard of our four-poster bed) was airy, spacious, well decorated and clean as a whistle. It had a large closet, a private bath, a fireplace, and a patio. For $159, it was a very good deal. Elaine O'Neil is a charming hostess, who personally cooks breakfast (included) each morning. Another huge selling point is the AMAZING array of books, new and old, on nearly every topic, from biography and history to potboiler and serious fiction...and everything in between. Next time we journey to the Albuquerque area, we will most definitely return to Elaine's.

As much as I want to be brief it's impossible. My husband and I wanted a peaceful and relaxing getaway from Los Angeles and we found it at this secret hideaway. From the extremely friendly welcome from Myra the family puppy ( Big puppy) to meeting Elain's grandson David and friend Marge we felt at home. We stayed up late chatting with the family and playing with Myra who by the way guilted us into playing fetch. Breakfast was wonderful. Our only regret was that we could only stay one night. But we will be back.

Downtown Historic B&B has been on my list since their open house last year. Finally, I got my…read morechance and it did not disappoint. It would be best just to give a play by play of our stay. Once we booked we arrived we followed the instructions on our confirmation. It gave us a code to a secure box where we were to find the rest of the details for our stay. It felt a lot like a scene from Clue. Fun! Inside looks exactly how you'd hope it to look based on the outside. It's filled with authentic built in furniture in solid sturdy wood. Ours was the Garden Room which was more of a suite than a room. In addition to the queen bed, there is also a separate room (like a living room) with a pull out couch. The living room has a door that leads out to a balcony that looks over the entire property. From there you can see a huge courtyard with a fireplace and luxurious lounge chairs, hammocks and benches. There is a pond, or more of a brook that runs through the back courtyard. I never determined if there were fish. The entire setting is a place for anyone but particularly those who want to take a few days to catch their breath. I sure did. In the morning the DH B&B served homemade quiche, multigrain pancakes, piping hot coffee and juice. If you are going to be in Albuquerque and are doing some comparisons, this one is more than just clean; it's delightful. I am a local. Even so, I'll be treating myself to this again..and again.

Lovely rooms with all the comforts of home. Very clean and well kept historic inn. Breakfasts are…read moretasty and they make homemade yogurt! So good! They also make all of the bathroom products in the rooms. Central location, easy to get to any of the main freeways and super close to the airport. I highly recommend trying Groves which is a 2 minute walk away for to go coffee, sweets or food. Very trendy little place with amazing homemade English muffins. Definitely worth supporting over the chain places in town. It made for a unique travel experience.

Stopped by the lobby, really more of a living room, to inquire about the historic inn and rooms…read more Food is served at Campo and there's also a Farm Shop that serves coffee/tea/pastries and a library bar. I appreciated Elizabeth's service at the inn in providing room rates, pictures, and information.

I was in town from Denver visiting for my nephew's graduation. We had reservations for a Friday…read moreevening. 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.
