My husband & I stayed at this lovely hotel for one night in early October 2026 before doing a Balloon Fiesta Tour. What a gem! Our room on the sixth floor, room #617 was nice. Lucky to have the upper floor so that we could view the balloons ascending in the early morning. Greatly appreciated the complimentary morning coffee in the lobby. Bed was super comfy & welcoming after a long train ride from the midwest. Shower was great! Amenities in the room were very nice too! Room was super-clean. Staff members - front desk, maids - all friendly & helpful. We were at the hotel on a Saturday night. There is a classic car, hot rod display on Central Avenue. So the noise level was a bit high but not too bad. The hotel provides earplugs in the room, very thoughtful. We felt we paid a fair hotel rate considering it was ABQ Balloon Fiesta time. If we return to ABQ again, I would certainly stay at the Arrive Albuquerque again - without a doubt.

My friend and I in ALB for one day and loved everything about this hotel. Thoughtful, cool decor, clean and such friendly , helpful front desk person when we checked in. A great location - we walked to Old Town (after breakfast down the block at Java Joe’s) and we had happy hour at the hotel /restaurant bar.My friend even made use of the pool for a dip and the peleton in the gym.

pros: king suite over the pool 6th floor is great, roomy, mostly quiet; functional, clean, hotel with restaurant , good location, bar, nice outdoor space, clean, art gallery, nice lobby, large pool area, valet parking, helpful staff, plenty of security.cons: street scene is sketchy, homeless (harmless?) campers congregate in and around the park, the Sunday cruise is loud, with heavy trafficif the street scene and Sunday night cruise don't bother you, this is a fine pick. If you go, check Java Joes a block away, for an early morning coffee shop, it's excellent.

Spent four days and three nights at ARRIVE. A pleasant stay near downtown and along historic Route 66. Liked the retro ambiance and the checkered pattern of the facade that capture hints of southwest motifs. A great library of architecture and design books. Recommend visiting the Railyards which have become A creative hub for artists and media designers ... a wonderful Farmers Market on Sundays.

Very noisy place to stay during the weekend. Streets are closed around the hotel on weekends; rooms have old mattresses which have back pain, no complementary water, coffee in the room. Doesn’t meet Marriott standards.
