This structure, typical of the architecture
brought to the Southwest by the early set-
tlers, is regarded as the most unusual build-
ing of its type anywhere in the world. It was
built by the Community Spirit of Albuquerque.
The Hotel contains 175 guest rooms. Its lobby,
magnificently decorated, is the most artistic
interior in this section of the country. The
Hotel is especially adapted to the entertain-
ment of Clubs, Conventions and large social
gatherings. Every attention is paid to the
comfort of cross country tourists, whose pro-
longed stay is desirable to all Albuquerque.
