I was expecting great things from this small hotel on the edge of the main tourist district. Overall it was a pleasant enough stay but not spectacular. I had attempted to contact them once by telephone and was asked to email my reservation request. 5 days later I still had not had a response and so telephoned again and managed... more

We have stayed twice, both for more than 10 days at this quant, clean hotel. The patio gardens are well tended and the flowers are lovely to see each morning. The morning breakfast, prepared and served by either Rosy or Flor are tasty and a great value. Do not miss a chance to eat the exclusive Las Golondrinas breakfast with... more

We stayed at Los Golondrinas From August 1 though August 6, 2006. We loved the hotel. The courtyard and flowers were beautiful. The staff was very helpful. The rooms were comfortable, clean and reasonably priced. The hotel is only a short walk from many excellent restaurants, businesses and attractions. more

Las Golondrinas needs to shape up. Four years ago I stayed at this plant-filled, clean and mildly friendly and quiet hotel. This July, the plants were all still there, but the service, the attitude and the noise where all new unfortunate additions. It is not really a friendly place (in comparison to other affordable places I stayed in Oaxaca). They... more

My friend and I stayed at Las Golondrinas last week during during the teachers strike which closed most of the museums and restaurants near the zocalo. 60,000 protestors took over the zocalo, but we still had the most wonderful and magical time because of the charming gardens and cleanliness of our accomodations, the helpfulness of hotel staff, and our driver... more

Enjoyed five delightful nights at Las Golondrinas. The courtyards alone are worth the cost. Flowers everywhere, very helpful service, very clean and well-tended. Had reservation problems (our email at fault) but the staff worked very hard to accommodate our needs on the spot. Room GG on the first courtyard was a triple room (a double bed and single bed) with... more

Very sweet little place to stay. It's a "hide-away" so if you're looking to party, this is not it. But if you like a taste of Mexico and a relaxed atmosphere you will do well here. more

The Las Golondrinas is a small but lovely little hotel. There are lots of flowers and plants all around the little patios that are next to all the rooms. Our room was comfortable especially late in the afternoon with the fan running. The hotel has a small "cafeteria" where you can get a hot breakfast at a reasonable price. NOTE:... more

Since most of the recent reviews cover the basics, I will focus on what we discovered that was a surprise! We had been planning our trip to Oaxaca all year and read many positive reviews of the Los Golondrinas. Our experience there definitly exceeded our expectations! First, the front desk is staffed 24 hours a day which was a very... more
