“I think the Imperial stands out for its fresh, modern take on mid-century design, a style that extends from the rooms to the on-site dining-I particularly appreciate the kitchenette options in some rooms. Its location places you near Albuquerque's attractions and business areas, and I noticed the seasonal outdoor pool, a relaxing touch. The accessibility and non-smoking policies are a definite plus.”
