Hotel Andaluz

I picked this hotel because I wanted to spend my birthday dancing. Since I live far away from the city, staying at a hotel was a must. We looked for a hotel that would have a dance plance near by. Turns out that this hotel had the dance place inside. I loved the music, modern and it was difficult not dancing. Great DJ!

No coffee makers in the rooms. You can call for them, which we did but it never arrived. First day housekeeping did not clean our room because the "do not disturb" sign was out. We specifically made sure the sign was not out when we left. The next morning the alarm went off at 5:45 and we had not set it. There is no way to accidently hit the alarm button. Saturday night was noisy. They have a rooftop bar and events.

Normally, "historic" can mean "getting run-down", but definitely not this hotel. They poured lots of money into renovations, and now it's a historic hotel with all the best amenities. Treat yourself to this place. It's one of the places with most distinct personality I've ever stayed in.

The Andaluz is a beautiful hotel, it really has been recently renovated and it looks it. (I remember when it was La Posada forty years ago.) Even if you don't stay here, just go into the lobby and look around. You can have a drink on the mezzanine, or go up onto the roof for a view of the city and Sandia Mountain. I think the rooms are over-decorated, though, with too different designs and colors and neo-western art to take seriously. Some artwork, like the partly filled beer cans and bottles on the wall, looked like leftovers from a previous party - it wasn't attractive or thought-provoking. Still, it's a very good hotel, quiet, with good amenities and helpful staff. Depending on your budget, I'd recommend it. Ask to see a room first if you're unsure.

The hotel is beautiful - but had zero noise proofing in our room - we heard motorcycles zooming around and around until 2a.m - called to front desk @ 1a.m. and 2a.m. - they were unable to help us out. Mentioned in the morning that we received little restful sleep - still no offer to slightly discount the room. Will not stay there again.

Great beautiful hotel and a fabulous room! Visually stimulating yet relaxing.

As good as most web reviews were, the stay far exceeded my expectations. Not only was the hotel in a prime location in downtown albuquerque. but it also had access to almost any train,bus to get to your desired destination. Room: beautiful, renovated, crisp & clean Staff: wonderful,young, extremely outgoing and helpful

The location was great, just a block from the convention center. The hotel is a gem. The lobby is quaint with small alcoves off of a large main room. The bed was very comfortable. I was upgraded to a larger room that was very stylish and made for a restful environment. During check-in, I was offered and requested an in-room coffee maker. However, it was inadvertently removed after the first night and I had to request it again. The lights in the bedroom and bathroom had dimmer switches and after a few minutes would go out and it would take a bit of fiddling with the switch to get them back on. This would happen again and again. This became rather annoying.

Great hotel located in the heart of Albuquerque. I was told the facility received a major overhaul in the past three years. The rooms are all updated including the bathroom and closets. While I did not have a tremendously large room it was a king bed and I had ample room for my needs. Staff is friendly and very accommodating. Good "bar scene" which livens the spacious lobby. I will return.

There are a lot of options for dining and entertainment within a short walking distance. The hotel is very nice and the staff is very friendly.
