Search hotels in Socorro, NM

Road work and repairs kinda made getting around a challenge since I never been there before. No hours of operations were posted on the San Miguel church so we missed that. El Camino family restaurant was great and ask for "Harmony" to be your waitress. She works hard and tirelessly and super pleasant. Overall, everything was at a relaxed pace and we loved it. The guys who worked the Rock Museum went above and beyond to find a couple of topo maps for me that were of another part of New Mexico and sold me a Geologic Highway map of the state as well. Great stuff.

Socorro is a small town with some very interesting sights around. We enjoyed looking at the Very Large Array on our way into town, and enjoyed the mining and technology college grounds near the motel.

Socorro offers the closest lodgings and dining for birders taking in Bosque del Apache National Wildlife Refuge. It's an easy drive down New Mexico 1 or I-25. I was there only one night, but there appeared to be a good assortment of hotels, restaurants, gas stations, a Walmart, all the essentials for a pleasant stay.
