This hotel is an economical choice for Oaxaca. The rooms are placed around a series of three courtyards which are filled with green potted plants. The only problem we found was a lack of places to sit outside. I counted a total of seven easy chairs. When we were there a large party of French tourists occupied all the tables... More

Understated, Clean. Honest. Efficient. Beautiful gardens. Excellent Breakfast. We had many options for Oaxaca, and in the end, this was the place we stayed because of availability of two rooms. The rooms were truly simple and spotlessly clean. No amenities, really, other than internet, but don't let that deter you. This place was quiet and perfect. The courtyard gardens were... More

Stayed here in February for initially 8 nights then decided to stay another 7. We had a Double room at 1st which was lovely but the beds are really small doubles. We swapped to a King room for the last 7 nights and that was huge with a sitting area and lots of space. It's a lovely hotel with beautiful... More

We stayed here for 3 days in December and found the hotel clean, friendly and safe. The only downside was that our room was on the ground floor and just off the courtyard, so a little dark. The gardens are lovely and a nice welcome sight after the cold winter weather in Canada. We had breakfast the first morning, but... More

Having selected this small nice hotel for years it still is comfy and good value but the owner/operator gets very stingy e.g. not allowing to use a little room in the only refrigerator. Moreover the breakfast portions are getting smaller and smaller at only relatively moderate prices. Incredible : no coffee refills (usual almost everywhere), surcharge for same size milk... More

Stayed here again for Muertos 2012 for four nights. Solo traveler, but they only have and charge double room rate which was $600 pesos. This year my room was in the rear garden area (B15) and was great. I wrote a lenghty review in 2011 and nothing has changed except for the continued addition of free WiFi. In this regard... More

We travel frequently in Mexico, we have stayed at this hotel 3 times in the past. It is a wonderful small hotel with clean comfortable rooms, beds with good reading lights for a change, nice patios full of flowers add to the feeling of privacy. And a very good value for money.

Another great stay at Las Golondrinas. The back rooms are quiet, the gardens are lush, the wi fi works, the staff is friendly and helpful. We will continue to go back to this property. The cost remains reasonable, at 680 pesos for a king size bedroom "suite" for two people. Other rooms cost 600 or less. I was buying extra... More

First thing - avoid room A1 unless you love to listen to the buses which zoom past your wall all day. Second thing - the rest of the hotel is really nice, clean and peaceful. The courtyard and patio areas are a riot of magnificent plants which lend a tropical feel which I loved. Thirdly - you are within easy... More
