Best Western Plus Rio Grande Inn

We were hesitant about staying in Albuquerque because of the reputation of high crime, also we had stayed in another Best Western in a city not far from here and weren't very pleased with the cleanliness. We were so impressed with this Best Western Plus, it was convenient right off the freeway, clean, the staff was very friendly, and the breakfast was super! The breakfast was provided by Wild Avocado sooo good! Not just a pastry or granola bar they have quite the selection, we ordered off the menu from our room then they called when it was ready and we picked it up and hit the road. We have our dog that travels with us so it is important to us that we choose a place that has a place for us to take the dog out. They have two dog areas one is a small fenced area where you can take them off lease and the other has a small patch of astro-turf. This will definitely be our go to stop when we are passing through. less

This was our first time visiting Albuquerque, NM from California. We were on our way to Kansas for the holidays and while on the road we decided to stay over night at a hotel. I called one of their other locations and they informed me they didn't have pet friendly room available. Advised us to call their other location a mile away. Mind you this was at 3 A.M. Arrived at Rio Grande location and the front desk lady was very helpful and provided me a room for a stay for my husband, son and dog. We liked that they had a area for pets to use and provided poop bags. I The bed were very comfy. My only concern was that it was a bit loud but that wasn't the fault of the hotel but of rude guest. less

This was our first time visiting Albuquerque, New Mexico from Atlanta Georgia. We have a freshmen at University of New Mexico and she was moving in the Saw-loft area. This hotel was the perfect location and price for my family. We have a minimum of three more years here and this will be our stop. less

We were enroute from to Wisconsin to Arizona. This hotel was within the price range we wanted to spend. This was during COVID, the hotel was clean, check-in/out were quick and the hot breakfast was a nice surprise and good. Quick on and off of Hwy 40 too. We will be back. less

The Hotel is right off the highway and highly visible at night. The front desk staff member Zack got us checked in quickly and gave great information about breakfast and dinner in the COVID confines. Our room was well equipped and the area to walk our dog was very convenient. We ordered chips and guac to go the evening we arrived and then had a delicious hot breakfast to go the next morning. The hotel is very convenient to ABQ old town; so we will definitely stay here on subsequent trips from our home in DEN to other points in the SW. less
