Alrighty then! You're going to figure out pretty quickly that most of what I talk about regarding the hotel will be about a month ahead of time. That's just how we roll in the tourism business... Mostly, there's not too much we can do to attract visitors for say, tomorrow. But next month, absolutely. So, with that being said, let me tell you what's going on!
Sporting tournaments are in full swing, actually starting this month, with volleyball tournaments and soccer (brrr!). March brings a slew of schools looking for accommodations for their teams. Since we have a cap on how many teams we can host, Submit Your Group Request Online, email us, or call toll free 866-345-0010 today and ask for Sales to reserve your blocks!
For those of us who are out of the scholastic season of our lives and are full-on into the daily grind, I have a balm for your hard-working soul: Golf Get-Aways! Starting at just $99 per person for one night at the hotel and one round of golf (based on double occupancy), these packages are a great way to really get away from it all. Email us or call toll free 866-345-0010 today and ask for Sales to make your reservations.

If you have stayed with us in the past and would like to leave a review or testimonial for us online, there are two venues for you. The first is TripAdvisor.com, a wonderful unbiased review site for travelers such as yourself looking for reviews of prospective properties. The other is our own Feedback Forum, where written and audio commentary are submitted, reviewed, responded to if requested, comments addressed and sometimes posted for our future guest's reference. I invite you to visit both pages and, if you are so inspired, leave us a review based on your experience with us.
OK - that's enough about the hotel. After my sign-off, you'll find a list of many events happening in Albuquerque through the end of February. For details on events past February, please visit our Albuquerque Current and Upcoming Events page.

Also, I invite you to create your own wonderful experience in Albuquerque. Spend some time researching what Albuquerque really has to offer. Ask the locals. There are so many great little day trips in and around the city - so much so that you can even have theme days!
1) Shopping: visit the Turquoise Museum to learn about the precious gem, then walk over to Old Town for strolling in galleries, shopping and eating.
2) Folk Art: Visit various artistic landmarks in Albuquerque - Art Museum, "Buick on a Stick", Barelas Neighborhood - with a stop at Barela's Coffee house for lunch. Then head out to TinkerTown in Sandia Park for the mother of all folk art displays!
3) Outdoor Adventure: Start with a morning hike and a picnic lunch at the petroglyphs. THen head up to the top of the Sandia Mountains, via the world's longest tram ride, for an afternoon hike along the top of the over 10,000ft above sea level Sandia Peak. Return at dusk, bathed in our magical pink-tinged sunset and have a bite to eat at Sandiago's at the base of the tram.
4) Start out at the Rio Grande Biological Gardens with a tour of their beautiful grounds - don't forget a visit to the Children's Fantasy Garden and Heritage Farms ( ! Then make a splash at the Albuquerque Aquarium, a great attraction for any age. Don't miss the new Koi pond - it's really cool! There are also shows on ecology and a theater that runs (7?) conservation and aquatic discovery films on a loop. Then hop the train to Tingley Beach and enjoy a picnic lunch by the model boat pond. After lunch, board the train again, this time to the Zoo! Spend the rest of the afternoon at our World Class Rio Grande Zoo. This Zoo is amazing, aside from all the animals there are to see, you can feed larakeets, stand protected inside a gibbon habitat and even take ANOTHER train ride through the back of the zoo to learn about new programs like the elephant mating program and the efforts to secure a panda (there's bamboo all OVER that place!). And be sure to catch the last train back to the Biological Gardens. Hmmm.... maybe take two days for this set of adventures...
There are hundreds of day trips just like these - discover what YOU can do in Albuquerque.
Wishing you a safe and prosperous journey until we meet,
