While the property has undergone an amazing overhaul and facelift it is nonetheless still a pretty basic motel on the main drag into ABQ downtown and a block or so from the freeway. We had one very noisy night - plenty going on the parking lot that night! - and one quieter night, and for this reason alone probably would not stay here again. The staff were great, and the restaurant and bar really convenient, even though there are plenty of other places very nearby. The room was spacious, clean and everything worked just fine. Easy access and certainly walkable. If rowdy motels are your thing, then you'd probably be fine with this property for a couple of nights..

This property just reopened after a remodel and everything felt so fresh and modern while still keeping a retro vibe. I checked in after midnight and the lady at the front desk was so friendly and inviting. I can’t wait to revisit in warmer weather to check out the pool! My stay was quiet, the bed was comfortable, and the rate was very reasonable. This place hit all the marks for me, I’ll definitely be back!

First impression was a 10/10. We were quickly greeted at the door. The property is super cute! Great amenities. The details and updates do not go unnoticed. Parking is easy and simply. Their toiletries smell great! Our trip was short, so we didn’t get to try the food but we would definitely return when we are back in the area.

The property is so updated and chick! Is in the famous route 66. Imperial Motel thought of providing you with all the confort you need. Parking, laundry, ice, drinking warer dispenser and regular morning brew coffee free. We never stay in motels, but this one is top of the line. Staff are very friendly too. Excellent food choices across the parking. Its really attached to the hotel. Buses are free. 2.5 from Old downtown.
