Top New Mexico Museum of Natural History and Science Hotel Reviews

The Monterey Motel

10/10 Excellent

"All in all good remodeled room. I know staff has a time frame to clean the room but just a little more dusting in certain areas. Other than we loved our stay beds were comfortable and not too far from old town. I will definitely stay there again. I had the double bed room with bunk beds and it was so convenient when traveling with other people and they get their own bed. Loved that I was able to check in through Expedia and just arrived to pick up keys."

The Querque Hotel

8/10 Good

"Need more lights in parking lot"

Econo Lodge Albuquerque Old Town

8/10 Good

"Cute place in a convenient location. Easy to walk to the river park or old town. Room was spacious and clean. The breakfast was pretty good. The pool wasn’t great, small and looked a little questionable, and the spa wasn’t very hot, so 4/5 for that reason."

Hotel Chaco

10/10 Excellent

"It was our first trip to this area, to Albuquerque-Santa Fe-Taos...."

Charming 1-bedroom casita with AC in Old Town Albuquerque

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location and very clean. Lovely outdoor space for sitting. Not very large indoor space but great for what we needed. Would definitely return."

Casas de Suenos Old Town Historic Inn, an Ascend Collection Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was attentive and detailed and cared about the accommodations. The room was clean and well furnished. The hot tub is something out of a reality show. The location is a close walk to old town. The breakfast was splendid offering many delicious options. I would stay here again when in ABQ. It’s great for couples."

Charming Gated Adobe in Historic Old Town

10/10 Excellent

"Great location we could walk to dinner"

Grandma's Old Town Adobe House!

10/10 Excellent

"A lovely vacation rental in Old Town ABQ! So easy to walk to Old Town shops and restaurants as well as the park and museums. The hosts were very helpful whenever I reached out. The hot tub is an added bonus. From the fireplace inside and backyard with multiple spaces to enjoy the outdoors, this place was a gem!"

Gorgeous Casita In The Heart Of Historic Old Town

8/10 Good

"Pros: Very cute studio loft. Close to Old Town Albuquerque with lots of little shops, museums, and galleries in walkable distance. Very nice covered balcony to hang out on and read or chat. Safe, quiet neighborhood. The lady who lives in the front unit was wonderful and lovely to chat with while I waited. Cons: there was maintenence happening when I arrived and they had to stop and clean up while I waited 20 minutes. The place was mostly clean, except for some very obvious hair in and around the shower. Each evening, the AC pulled in smoke from a nearby fire or smoker? Overall, a lovely stay and I would stay here again."
