The Spotlight on Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Albuquerque Airport By IHG

Comfort and Convenience Near the Albuquerque Airport

Modern and dependable, the Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Albuquerque Airport offers a comfortable stay just minutes from the terminal and close to downtown concert venues. With clean, spacious rooms and thoughtful amenities, it’s a great base for music fans who want both accessibility and a peaceful night’s sleep.
Located less than a mile from Albuquerque International Sunport and just a short drive to popular live music venues and cultural centers, this hotel strikes the right balance between location and value.

Why Concert-goers love it

Its prime location makes it easy to get to and from shows without stress—whether you're heading to a stadium gig or a smaller venue downtown. The hotel is just under 2 miles from the National Hispanic Cultural Center and about 3 miles from the Albuquerque Amtrak Station, making it ideal for out-of-towners. 24-hour front desk service means late check-ins aren’t a problem after an encore-filled night, and soundproofed rooms let you recharge in peace.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for budget-friendly crash space
  • Solo travelers attending a must-see show
  • Couples planning a relaxed music weekend
  • Fans wanting a quieter space after a high-energy concert
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who still want comfort

Food and Drink Options

Fuel up in the morning with a free buffet or continental breakfast, served daily—perfect after a late night out. While the hotel doesn’t offer on-site dining for lunch or dinner, there are several quick bites and sit-down spots within a short drive. Fast food, local diners, and casual eateries make grabbing a meal easy and affordable. 24/7 coffee in the lobby is a bonus for late-night energy or early flights.

Nightlife Options

While the hotel itself is quiet and not nightlife-focused, it’s a short drive to Albuquerque’s downtown bar scene, live music lounges, and breweries. Catch a show, then explore nearby spots for a nightcap. Or, if you prefer to wind down, enjoy a soak in the hotel’s indoor hot tub before calling it a night.

What People Say

Guests love the cleanliness of the rooms, the friendly and helpful staff, and the unbeatable proximity to the airport and local attractions. Many mention the hotel as a quiet gem that’s still close to the action. The free breakfast also gets high marks for quality and variety.

Areas for Improvement

Some reviewers note that the hotel isn’t in a walkable neighborhood for nightlife, so rideshares or a car are usually necessary. A few guests mentioned that the decor is a bit plain and more functional than stylish—but it’s clean, comfy, and does the job.

The Bottom Line

This hotel is a smart pick for concert-goers who want easy access to venues, a great night’s sleep, and no-fuss comfort before or after the show.

Bonnie, Oklahoma, visiting Isleta Amphitheater

We went to see a concert at the Isleta Amphitheater. Very close to venue, but when you are leaving the amphitheater after your event you will be rerouted, so make sure you have a GPS. Very comfortable hotel. It was quiet and had a wonderful staff. I would stay here again.

Liked: Very clean room. Comfortable.
Disliked: Bus and semi truck took up much of the parking when we got in late.

We were met with friendly service and the accommodations were very nice. We asked for help in locating different things at the front desk and the staff was very nice and helpful. I plan on staying at the hotel again soon.

Camella Fri, 16 May 2025

Wonderful! Except...

Liked: I needed to take my son to the airport at 4 a.m. and this hotel was 2 minutes away so that was perfect. The staff was friendly, the beds were cozy, the room was clean and spacious and the free breakfast was good quality and had variety.
Disliked: We needed a third bed so we opted for a queen suite with a sofa bed. The sofa bed was terrible! You could feel the springs right through the surface. My son woke up with indentations in his skin from the springs in the mattress!
