“A Gem in Old Town Albuquerque”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

We drive thru Albuquerque at least twice a year from AZ to MN and have never stayed in the area before - That may very well change. This hotel is fantastic: nice sized rooms, great hotel grounds, the staff was very friendly and helpful and the food in the restaurants was outstanding. What more could you ask for! BTW - Old town and the museums are within a couple of blocks are well worth the day. The hotel is located 2 blocks off I-40 and within a mile of the I-25 and I-40 intersection.

“Quite please.”

Stayed there for a wedding. Got there a couple hours before regular check in. The desk staff was great by getting us checked in early. Room was nice with a good view of Sandia mountains. Unfortunately the sound proofing was less than ideal. And the plumbing could use improvement. Getting shower temperature was a problem. If you're looking for night life the Q-bar delivers. Would stay again.

The room was large and clean with a great view. The hotel decor is traditional New Mexico style and they serve a great breakfast. Staff were very friendly.Ideally located for walking around Old Town where there are lots of shops are restaurants.

Room Tip: Higher floors have a great view.

“Hotel is good, restaurants not so much”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 December 2011
2
people found this review helpful

The front desk staff and housekeeping people are quite good. The restoration of the former Sheraton has turned out well, evoking a Pueblo-Colonial style. The rooms are comfortable and well appointed. The hotel appears well laid out for conferences and meetings.

Both restaurants have problems. Cristobal's aspires to sophistication, but the poorly trained and unresponsive wait staff are not an advantage. The dinner was adequate, but lacked attention to detail. The salmon was overcooked and the risotto clumpy and almost tasteless, for example. The side vegetable serving was tiny. Cafe Plazuela is better, with a good quality New Mexico menu, but the wait staff is even less attentive and trained than at Cristobal's. We asked for coffee refills three times over a 25 minute period before someone other than a waiter brought it. Bent silverware was not replaced, though the wait person did at least make a joke about it, suggesting she was aware of the problem once we pointed it out. And food service at breakfast was very slow even though the restaurant was not even close to full.

So in sum, a satisfactory hotel with less than satisfactory restaurants.
