Top Rio Grande Nature Center State Park Hotel Reviews

Hotel Albuquerque at Old Town

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful hotel!"

The Querque Hotel

8/10 Good

"The breakfast was late 15 minutes, the bagel toaster was not plugged, so I and another guest had to open the cabinet below and connect the toaster. The public bathroom was dirty , no soap in dispensers, hand paper towels was not loaded into the machine, so the roll was left on the sink area. Fresh (decaffeinated), coffee dispenser was lukewarm."

Travelodge by Wyndham Albuquerque West

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely room with great pricing. Enjoyed my stay!"

Garner Hotel Albuquerque West by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Nice hotel, suprisingly spacious room"

Quality Inn & Suites Albuquerque West

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing. The room was clean. It was a smoking room so the room smelled of an ash tray. That was expected. The staff was friendly and helpful. I was very disappointed that I overslept and missed the free breakfast. But, as I was leaving, I smelled bacon, from the missed breakfast. It's a real breakfast, not a doughnut and coffee. I highly recommend this hotel!"

Econo Lodge Albuquerque Old Town

8/10 Good

"Older building, could use some refurbishing. That said, the bed was clean and comfortable, the room was quiet. Breakfast was excellent, as good as some restaurants. Cost was reasonable (especially given that it was the start of the Balloon Festival). Location is awesome -- easy walk to Old Town, Biopark, Rio Grande greenway."

The Monterey Motel

8/10 Good

"It’s a nice motel with Route 66 ambiance. Liked the bar with the live music. Close to the center and beautiful botanical gardens. Thumbs up."

Hotel Chaco

"Incredible hotel! Clean, beautiful!"

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Albuquerque West
