There’s a lot more to Albuquerque than visits to the historic Old Town, including the popular Nob Hill Neighborhood. Unlike Old Town, it’s not within walking distance of our Inn, but the Nob Hill restaurants and attractions you’ll find there, including famed Historic Route 66 attractions, make a trip to this part of Albuquerque more than worth it!
Though many of our guests love the convenience of walking to dinner in Albuquerque’s historic Old Town – which happens to be home to some of the best restaurants in Albuquerque – we also love sending our guests to delicious meals at Nob Hill restaurants. Visiting these restaurants also offers the perfect excuse to explore this unique part of Albuquerque!
Nob Hill was named after the neighborhood of the same name in San Francisco. It was developed extensively between 1920 and 1950 and now features several destinations on the National Registry of Historic Places. The neighborhood is also home to some of the top attractions on Historic Route 66, as Central Avenue runs right through the heart of it.
Luckily, the neighborhood and its many fantastic Nob Hill restaurants are just 15 minutes from our Bed and Breakfast in Albuquerque, making it easy to get out and enjoy an evening. Our central location is one of the best things about staying with us – especially if you plan to spend time in Albuquerque’s walkable Old Town. There’s truly no better place to stay in Albuquerque.
