Flight
Albuquerque Airport (ABQ)
We suggest flying in and out of the Albuquerque airport (called Albuquerque International Sunport). It's a 20-minute drive from Los Poblanos. Car rental shuttles provide free transportation between the terminal building and the Car Rental Center. Shuttles run every 5 minutes from the commercial lane located outside the 1st level of the airport terminal building. It's also possible to take an Uber from the airport to where you are staying in Albuquerque. Expect to pay around $20 each way.
Hotel
Hotel Chaco
Albuquerque, NM 87104 (505) 246-9989
Hotel Chaco is our favorite hotel option in Albuquerque not named Los Poblanos and it's located right next door to the Friday night Welcome Party. The hotel is a 7-minute drive to Los Poblanos and it’s also walkable to Historic Old Town. Super cool vibe, modern layout, sunny pool, and nice views of the Sandia Mountains from their rooftop bar. No joke, John Stamos, The Beach Boys and Tom Hanks’s crew were all staying here when we visited in March. We highly recommend it.

Hotel
El Vado Motel
Albuquerque, NM 87104 (505) 361-1667
Vintage gets an upgrade! When it opened in 1937, El Vado was one of New Mexico’s first motels to greet travelers on famous Route 66. Today, El Vado is a unique blend of historic character and charm, combined with modern comforts and amenities. There's a pool here as well and it's not far from Hotel Chaco and Hotel Albuquerque (where the Friday night Welcome Party will take place). 9-minute drive to Los Poblanos.
Hotel
Los Poblanos Historic Inn and Organic Farm
Los Ranchos de Albuquerque, NM 87107
Los Poblanos, the site of the wedding, does not have enough guesthouses to accommodate everyone, but the other hotels we have listed are close-by and Ari and Chris approved. The pool on the property can be used by all of our wedding guests (but you didn't hear that from us).
