This was a great property to explore the historical district of Mexico City. Claudia at the front desk was an absolute gem as was the cleaning staff, sorry I didn’t get her name. The restaurant attached was fantastic and couldn’t have been more helpful. My one warning, if you are a lite sleeper the street noise can be a bit over the top. It did get “ quiet” by 11 and was back at it by 600. I would return.

Hotel Gillow is a classy hotel with cozy rooms located in the heart of Mexico City. All the major attractions are easily within walking distance. A wide variety of restaurants, cafés, and taquerías are near, and daily housekeeping and 24 hour security are nice additions. I absoluteltely recommend Hotel Gillow to anyone visiting Mexico City.

Being right in the Historic Center makes this hotel a very good option. Easy to walk everywhere, staff are nice and overall good value for the price. The reason I gave overall 4 stars was because they have no airport shuttle, which was important to me on this trip. I specifically looked for shuttle services hotels when doing my search on Expedia and this came up as an option was in reality, they do not offer it. Aside from that, I have no complaints
