Hotel Andaluz is a historic high-rise hotel building built in 1939 as the Hilton Hotel but underwent renovations in 1984 and now operates as La Posada de Albuquerque. It is located at 125 Second Street NW in Downtown Albuquerque, New Mexico.
History
Opened in 1939, it was Conrad Hilton's fourth hotel and the first modern high-rise hotel in the state. Architect Anton F. Korn designed the ten-story building in the New Mexico Territorial style, with earthtone stucco, brick coping along the roofline, and southwest-style woodwork and furnishings. The hotel was renovated in 1984 and reopened as La Posada.
The old Hilton Hotel was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.
In March 2008, it was renamed "Hotel Andaluz" and reopened in 2009. The new property features Más restaurant, the rooftop bar Ibiza and 6,000 square feet (560 m2) of conference facilities.
