Super cute and comfy hotel! The room felt luxurious and the staff was very friendly. The location was perfect except for the weekend cruising up and down Central, which gets a bit loud!

This was our first time staying at the Arrive in Albuquerque. The room was a perfect stay for our stay-cation. Service at the bar, for food and house keeping were slow (30 minutes to get two bath towels), but the staff was very friendly.

Fast ballgame weekend
Came for a weekend ball game and thoroughly enjoyed the stay and hotel. Very clean, well decorated and in a prime location to see all the vintage car scene on Sundays. Food and pool were amazing, nothing but good things to say about hotel staff, room decor, bathroom, and bed. All was great. Loved the restaurant and patio areas.
