The Best Western Mission Inn is a budget-friendly hotel at 1765 S Main St on the south side of Las Cruces, close to the Interstate 10 interchange. Travelers choose it for free breakfast, an outdoor pool, and low rates within a short drive of New Mexico State University, downtown, and historic Mesilla.
The low-rise property has Southwestern styling and a casual, family-friendly feel. Guests get complimentary Wi-Fi and a hot breakfast each morning, which helps families and road-trippers save money before heading out. The outdoor pool is a welcome break from the desert heat, and parking is easy for anyone driving between El Paso, Tucson, and Albuquerque. Guest reviews average about 4.3 stars and often mention friendly staff, good value, and a convenient location. The rooms are simple and practical rather than luxurious.
Visitor Highlights & Practical Info
Rates and occupancy climb during NMSU home football games, commencement weekends, and fall events such as the Southern New Mexico State Fair, so book early for those dates. Weekday stays in late fall, winter, and early spring are usually the calmest and cheapest. Summer afternoons regularly top 95°F, which makes the pool popular after sightseeing. Old Mesilla Plaza is about 3 miles southwest and is known for green-chile dining and adobe architecture. The downtown Las Cruces Farmers & Crafts Market runs Wednesday and Saturday mornings. Call the hotel directly to confirm pool hours and current breakfast service.
