Top Rio Grande Nature Center State Park Hotel Reviews

Hotel Chaco

10/10 Excellent

"Great Friendly Service. Comfortable Very Clean rooms"

Hotel Albuquerque at Old Town

8/10 Good

"The property is beautifully landscaped, well maintained and within an easy walk to Old Town. Breakfast choices are good. Arriving for the weekend on Saturday, we encountered several (maybe 3) wedding receptions at the hotel which made parking difficult. At check in, we were advised there’d be a wedding reception beneath our balcony that would be moved inside at 10:00 pm and it was."

Los Poblanos Historic Inn & Organic Farm

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed here almost by accident on way back from Taos. Our experience at Los Poblanos was fantastic! The grounds were beautiful. The staff was amazing. The food was delicious. The library bar was a great getaway. This was one of the more pleasant experiences we’ve had traveling. We have stayed at multiple Auberge (including Bishops lodge Santa Fe) multiple Ritz and Waldorf – Los Poblanos experience was on par with those other properties. The property is not opulent and It’s not fancy for sake of being fancy, but the property is what it should be down to the last detail for the experience they are offering. We will be back."
