We spent one night here after flying into Mexico City. Location and price make the hotel stand out. The room was nice and large, but a bit dated. We had a nice balcony/patio on the top floor. The staff was very attentive and helpful. Everything is literally right outside your door. More

I recently stayed here as a second choice. My first choice wasn't available my first night. The rooms were a bit old, but well maintained. The staff is very attentive, and the location can't be beat. Hard to find a real bath tub, but this hotel does have that luxury. I would recommend the hotel to anyone wanting to be... More

We stayed at Hotel Gillow over Christmas and New Year. It was our first trip to Mexico and I can't tell you enough how wonderful Hotel Gillow is. The staff were really friendly and helpful even though we can't speak Spanish. The resturant was superb and the rooms were clean and lovely. The lady on reception even organised for me... More

We stayed for several days at the hotel and then went to Chihuahua for a few days. We left a backpack with them for safekeeping and an old pair of ladies sandles was attached in a bag to the outside of the backpack (there was no room inside). When we got back and retrieved the bag from their store-room the... More

I recently stayed at this hotel for a week with family (including children) and our experience was very, very positive!! The room was large (including a shower/tub bathroom) and always very clean. The staff were attentive and friendly at all times; my nephew became ill late one night and the hotel staff were compassionate and resourceful in trying to find... More

I discovered Hotel Gillow by default after not being able to get a booking at Hotel Catedral. It's clean, the location is excellent and the front desk staff, friendly. The rooms at the Gillow are much improved after the remodeling of the floors (the old carpet was removed and new wood-like flooring installed). Although the Gillow doesn't have the services... More

Hotel Gillow could not be more central. It is right in the middle of everything. Walking distance from Bellas Artes and the Zocalo. It's really a perfect location for a visit to Mexico City specially if it's your first time. The rooms were clean and the beds were very comfy. The staff was friendly and helpful. The prices were great... More

Hotel Gillow was originally recommended to us by friends who also stay here regularly. We make our reservations in advance and have never had any problems with them. The staff is always friendly and helpful. The location is great. But be sure to ask for a room away from the street on an upper floor. The restaurant is good and... More
