    As New Mexicans, we sometimes don't take the time to see the richness of our own State. We needed a weekend away and wanted to spend time in Old Town Albuquerque. The Bottger had one room left. We parked the car upon arrival and didn't get back into it until we left two days later. The evening music in the Plaza was great. Chuy, with the Cultural Affairs Department of the City of Albuquerque, took time to visit with us and make us welcome. We wandered Old Town, took the Ghost Tour, looked at the Tiffany Exhibit, ate at Seasons, Church Street Cafe, and Antiquities and thourghly enjoyed ourselves. Without Steve and Kathy Hiatt at the Bottger Mansion our welcome and stay would not have been the same. The hospitality was wonderful. We stayed in the Christy Bedroom, which is light and airy with a tall ceiling. We'll be back.


    Great place to stay!

    Good food, nice rooms and friendly people. Little extras make a big difference. For example, there were a few cookies in the dining room when we arrived later than expected, and small packets of flower seeds for us to sow when we returned to our homes.

    Clean, lovely rooms, perfect location at the heart of Old Town. The Innkeepers went above and beyond the norm. We were stunned and delighted that THEY checked in with us before our visit to check on special needs like food allergies.

    My husband and I stayed at Bottger Mansion at the beginning of our first trip to New Mexico. We couldn't have chosen better. It's a wonderful place: clean and friendly, in a great location, with great breakfasts and incredibly generous, helpful hosts. Kathy and Steve know the area well, and their advice helped us get to the places we wanted to see, as well as to great places we didn't even know about beforehand! It was a wonderful start to our trip. We highly recommend Bottger Mansion! Carol and Don San Francisco

    My husband, 15 yr old son and I very much enjoyed our stay. Beautiful historic house, good beds, and Excellent breakfast. Wi-Fi was dependable. Living room (with board games or TV if you wish) was nice. Hummingbirds and other birds in the yard, viewed from glassed in porch was a fun addition to breakfast. So close to Old Town we felt part of history! Free parking in reserved spots in town parking lot directly across the street. Steve & Kathy are gracious hosts-- helpful and pleasant (but not overwhelming). We recommend a stay here.
