Whether you're flying in for a big show or road-tripping with friends, this hotel blends comfort, convenience, and value in a prime location near the airport.

Why Concert-goers love it

With the Albuquerque International Sunport Airport just 1.2 miles away and major venues like the Kimo Theater and Albuquerque Convention Center under 4 miles, getting to and from shows is quick and easy. The free shuttle helps with late arrivals, and the quiet location away from the city center makes for a peaceful post-concert wind-down. The flexible 12:00 p.m. check-out is a big plus for anyone recovering from a late-night encore.

Who this Hotel is great for

Food and Drink Options

While there's no on-site restaurant, the hotel offers a free hot breakfast—ideal for a late morning after a night out. You’ll find plenty of walkable fast-casual spots and local eateries within a short distance, and nearby downtown Albuquerque has plenty of late-night bites to choose from. Room service is not available, but in-room fridges are perfect for stashing snacks or leftovers.

Nightlife Options

Though the hotel itself is more about quiet comfort than on-site nightlife, you’re just a short ride from downtown Albuquerque’s bars, lounges, and live music clubs. Whether you're after a craft cocktail bar or an after-party spot, options are close and easy to reach by ride-share or car.
