Albuquerque Hotels with a Hot Tub for Your Stay
A hot tub fits Albuquerque well. The city sits at about 5,300 feet in a high desert, so days are sunny and dry while evenings, especially from late autumn to early spring, turn cool. After a day at the Sandia Peak Tramway, in Old Town or on a Route 66 drive along Central Avenue, warm water is a simple pleasure. The hotels on this page all list a hot tub, from a rooftop tub at The Clyde Hotel to indoor tubs at suite hotels near the airport and on the north side. I describe what each listing actually says, and I note which tubs are indoor, outdoor or part of a spa, so you can choose.
Albuquerque is laid-back and outdoorsy, with Sandia Mountain views, Old Town's adobe plaza, Route 66 neon and a university crowd. The high-desert climate means warm days and cool evenings most of the year, which suits an end-of-day soak.
Hot tubs to end a day in Albuquerque
A hot tub is a practical feature in Albuquerque, where mornings can be crisp even when afternoons are warm, and where many stays involve hiking, walking Old Town or long drives. I list hotels whose descriptions mention a hot tub, and I say what comes with it: an indoor pool, a rooftop view, a spa, or breakfast. Descriptions do not always say how big or how hot a tub is, so I stay with what is written and avoid guessing.
The Clyde Hotel is the most distinctive option for a hot tub downtown. It is described as Albuquerque's tallest hotel, with luxurious Pueblo Deco accommodations, and it features an outdoor rooftop pool, a hot tub and a sauna, along with a fitness center. Dining includes Carrie's Restaurant, a Starbucks and the 1922 Lounge, and the hotel is pet-friendly and close to the Albuquerque Convention Center. With 728 reviews and an 8.2 rating, it is better suited to travelers who want a downtown setting and a rooftop soak than to those looking only for the quietest room.
Hotel Parq Central Albuquerque combines a hot tub with character. The listing describes a boutique hotel built in 1926, with free WiFi, a flat-screen TV in the rooms, a rooftop bar, a hot tub and spa and wellness facilities, plus shuttle services to the airport. Its 8.8 rating comes from 392 reviews. Hotel Albuquerque At Old Town, off Interstate 40, is described as a luxury hotel with gourmet dining, an outdoor pool and a hot tub, and most rooms have a private balcony. It is pet-friendly and holds an 8.8 rating from 609 reviews.
On the north side, the Hampton Inn & Suites Albuquerque North/I-25 offers family rooms with kitchenettes and sofa beds, an indoor pool, a hot tub, a fitness center and a complimentary daily breakfast, near Cliff's Amusement Park. The Drury Inn & Suites Albuquerque North also lists an indoor pool and a hot tub, with complimentary hot breakfast, free WiFi in all rooms and pet-friendly accommodations, and its 8.9 rating rests on 1,067 reviews. The Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Albuquerque North has an indoor pool and hot tub too, with 79 reviews behind its 8.5.
Several airport-area hotels add a hot tub at a practical location. The Best Western Plus Rio Grande Inn lists a covered outdoor pool, a hot tub and a fitness center, with The Wild Avocado restaurant and the Cork & Tap lounge on site, and 515 reviews at 8.5. The Hampton Inn & Suites Albuquerque Airport has an indoor pool, hot tub and a spa and wellness center, and the Holiday Inn Express & Suites Albuquerque Airport offers an indoor pool, hot tub and fitness center. Comfort Suites Albuquerque Airport lists a hot tub and a fitness center, with 1,092 reviews at 9.3.
A traveler's perspectiveFor a hot tub with a view, I would choose The Clyde Hotel: its outdoor rooftop pool comes with a hot tub, a sauna and a fitness center, near the Convention Center. For a quieter stay with more space, I would pick the Hampton Inn & Suites Albuquerque North/I-25, with an indoor pool, a hot tub and kitchenettes. My advice is to decide first if you want an indoor tub for winter or an outdoor one for evening air.

Local tips
- 1Decide between an indoor and an outdoor tub: indoor ones work all year, while outdoor and rooftop ones are best in the cool evening air.
- 2Ask the hotel about the hours of the pool and hot tub, since some close earlier than the lobby and a few close for cleaning.
- 3Pack a swimsuit even for a winter trip, because high-desert evenings are cool but the water is warm and the air is dry.
- 4At altitude, drink water and keep soaks short after a long hike, since Albuquerque sits at about 5,300 feet.
- 5Look at Central Avenue after dark for the Route 66 neon, then return to the hotel for a soak instead of a late drive.
- 6Book early for October, when the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta fills hotels across the city.
