Was there during the Albuquerque Comic Con After-party at Doubletree. Fantastic hotel bar! Cool bar setup, nice lobby, etc. but the reason this place is so great is the staff. Especially bartender Mercedes! She’s a hell of a bartender, pours a solid drink, and in the midst of all the craziness of the con, with celebrities and other freaks dressed in costume, Mercedes was calm, cool, and collected. She took care of the bar like a seasoned pro (I’m guessing she can’t be more than 25, if that.) The only problem I have is that she wasn’t working Sunday, the last day of the con! Thank you Mercedes and the staff of the lounge and of Doubletree hotel!

Staying at the double tree, I ate here instead of going out, and it was pretty sweet. It was a top notch old fashioned, and the breaking bad salad. My server handled business, taking care of me and other people really well. I’m happy I stayed to eat and saved the time.

We were pretty impressed with the restaurant within a hotel. We needed a quick stack, and this place was able to provide a really really excellent burger. The food of Albuquerque is green hatch chile, and the burger was covered in a spicy, tangy chile.
They cook it with water, and their fries are actually pretty good: crispy and fresh.
The other times I’ve eaten here in the past, I’ve had good experiences (good nachos and loaded fries, both covered in that chile.

This is my 2nd time at this Doubletree Hotel in Albuquerque, NM. Each time I’ve had a great experience at the lounge. This is my first time having Michelle as the bartender and I must say she elevates the experience, has great customer service, and an awesome personality!! I truly enjoyed her!!!

We had an interesting addition to black history month here yesterday. I’d picked this hotel bar for a meeting because it had some outdoor seating and we were meeting around sunset time. The menu online looked decent and the reviews raved of the bar. They handled us walking in like a bomb. The server was normal, the manager was on pins and needles as soon as we walked up.
She walked back with the server when she gave us a menu and was interrogating us about our purpose in being here, if we actually planned on ordering food, if we had a larger group coming, etc. We were the only people in the room to start. I’m latina, my husband and his business partner are black. It was noticeably making our blonde manager very uncomfortable. She went from interrogating us to responding to things we were saying to each other like she was adding help. Then she came up with the server again to take our order like we needed to be handled specially. She’s not doing this for any other table (2/3 groups had shown up without the dramatics) and there’s 3 people. Her server did not need help to take our order.
We left. We told her that the vibes were making us deeply uncomfortable and we no longer wanted to be there. I left a dollar on the table for the server and we left without trying anything. Other than the obvious unspoken rules here, the space was cute. Not that I’d consider staying at the double tree after this, other wise a brand I was fond of.

Didn’t have food but both nights we had drinks they were good. Girls behind the bar are funny and seemed to have a good time. Outdoor patio area is nice and relaxing on a cool night.

The bar staff was amazing! So attentive, even though it was a busy night. My water was never empty and as soon as we finished a drink they were right there to ask if we would like another. I was so appreciative that I contacted the hotel to express my gratitude.

COVID has really caused problems when it comes to hospitality workers. The bartender was also wait staff. She was taking drink and food orders for bar patrons and room service orders. She was still awesome! No one complained for having to wait 5 extra minutes. The food was very good, especially the fries!

Look at the photo it says it all when they were so under staffed. When it was served to me it was cold and not well thought out.
