Information & Amenities
The historic La Posada de Albuquerque was opened in 1939 by New Mexico native Conrad Hilton, who honeymooned here with his bride, Zsa Zsa Gabor. John F. Kennedy, Jimmy Stewart, Bill Gates, Lucille Ball, Spencer Tracy, and Al Gore have all signed the guest registry at this hotel.
Capturing the essence of the Southwest, this hotel features an elaborate Moorish brass and mosaic-tiled fountain, hand-crafted circular balcony, massive vigas, and Native American war-dance murals.
The hotel is located close to the convention center and the Route 66 Entertainment Corridor, two miles from Old Town Albuquerque.
A day spa, a restaurant, a lounge, and meeting space are provided. Guests have access to a health club and swimming pool across the street. The hotel is also home to Jane Butel’s Southwestern Cooking School.
