The Best Historic Bed and Breakfast in Albuquerque

New Mexico is filled with centuries of fascinating history. It’s visible everywhere you turn in town. From the many Old Town Albuquerque attractions and centuries-old Native American Pueblo history weaved into the fabric of everyday life to the vibrant Route 66 history, it’s hard to escape this city’s vibrant and diverse history. This unique cultural confluence is also evident at our historic Bed and Breakfast in Albuquerque, perched just off Route 66’s Central Avenue and on the edge of Old Town. 

Our fantastic location, which is walkable to so many of the top attractions in Old Town and surrounding neighborhoods, is one of the many things that make our historic Bed and Breakfast in Albuquerque the perfect place to stay while enjoying a fall getaway.

Things to do in Albuquerque’s Old Town

We’re perched on the edge of Albuquerque’s Old Town neighborhood, one of the most popular destinations to visit while in town.

Like our historic Bed and Breakfast in Albuquerque, you’ll find plenty of history to discover in Old Town. This part of town started as a farming community and eventually became a village in 1706. Over the years, it’s flown the flag of Spain, Mexico, and the United States. Today, the area is considered one of the country’s most unique cultural melting pots. Though Old Town is a relatively small part of town, there are many things to do here! Below, we’ve compiled a list of some of our favorite things to do in Albuquerque’s Old Town this fall.
