🍹 Hotel Andaluz Albuquerque – A Historic Gem in the City!

Since we had some time before heading up to Sandia Peak at 5 PM, we drove downtown and stumbled upon this absolute beauty—the Hotel Andaluz, part of the Curio Collection by Hilton. And wow, am I glad we did! This isn’t your typical modern chain hotel—it’s filled with character, history, and a moody, romantic atmosphere. We just stopped in for a drink to cool off and rest our feet, but ended up soaking in the vibe. ❤️🍸 Parking was surprisingly easy! Right behind the valet area, there were a few metered spots—I snagged one and paid just $0.50 for 45 minutes. Perfect for a quick visit! 🅿️⏳ Inside, the hotel is stunning—Moorish-inspired architecture, dark wood, wrought iron details, and cozy seating areas that make you want to sit back with a novel (or a cocktail). We ordered iced teas and found a quiet corner to people-watch. Up on the second floor, a lively Mexican wedding reception was in full swing! 💃🎻 You could hear laughter, music, and the joy of celebration echoing through the courtyard. It added such a warm, vibrant energy to the whole place. If you’re in Albuquerque and want a taste of historic elegance (without the price tag of staying overnight), definitely pop into the Andaluz for a drink, some photos, and a moment of calm—or celebration! 📸✨ 📍 Location: Hotel Andaluz Albuquerque 125 2nd St NW, Albuquerque, NM 87102 #HotelAndaluz #Albuquerque #HistoricHotel #HiltonCurio #TravelBreak #NewMexicoVibes #MoorishStyle
