While I would not consider Hotel Blue to be a luxury hotel, it is truly an excellent value for the money. What I like most are the Tempurpedic beds, I have one at home so it's much more like sleeping in my own bed (and they are very comfortable). They have a pretty decent complimentary continental breakfast included in the... More

I travel quite a bit for an association, so I'm always looking for the sweet spot between services and value. The Hotel Blue wins on a lot of counts (terrific, friendly service; free shuttles; cleanliness/safety/location) and, predictably at this price point, craps out on a few others (aesthetics, high-end amenities, exquisite attention to detail). There's a bar-restaurant in the works... More

I stayed at this hotel when I was moving from NC to CA. I had mom, the dog and myself which was stressful in itself. By the time we had made it to Albuquerque, i was spent. The nicest thing happened. We were greeted by Ian who was very helpful wnd when I told him I had been unloading all... More

I have to admit, I was initially a little trepidatious in staying at a location not adjacent to the convention center. I'm happy now that I made this decision. The location was excellent. My daily walk to the convention center was only about 10 minutes, while still remaining in walking distance to Old Town. An even better bonus was the... More

I stayed a week at the Hotel Blue and it was a perfectly fine stay. This is not a plush hotel, so if you're after bells and whistles, this isn't the place for you. When I arrived, the Hotel was almost empty so the lovely girl at reception gave me one of their best rooms (5th floor, king bed, facing... More

The Hotel Blue is a fine, cheap, safe place to stay in Albuquerque. The rooms are a tad shabby, but they have the veneer of a remodel. The staff are friendly, the location is fun -- near clubs and restaurants -- and the place has personality. The Tempurpedic bed, however, was hell on my back. Like sleeping in quicksand. As... More

Booked the Hotel Blue when coming to Albuquerque for a conference. After comparing prices with other downtown hotels could not pass it up since I was traveling on a budget. Located on the edge of downtown, it was easy walking distance to the conference, eating and entertainment. Location was one of the few pluses. Pro's: location on the edge of... More

you just need to know that as soon we entered our room (4th floor) I screamed looking at the bath….two big "cucarachas"crowling on the walls….everybody agreed we couldn't stay one minute more!!!How can anyone in 2011 allow such insects in the rooms?? At 4th floor??? And they wanted our credit card even for taking a look at the room (because... More

Chose this hotel based on Expedia reviews. This place is a dirty dump. We stayed two nights. Broken elevator, dirty hallways and breezeways, stained carpet. Our door wouldn't shut and the room smelled bad. The nieghbors had drunken parties all night and fought with security. When we asked for a different room, the clerk looked at us like we were... More
