Located within 1.9 km of Robert Brady Museum and 25 km of Archaeological Monuments Zone of Xochicalco, Gal - Habitaciones Confortables provides rooms in Cuernavaca.

At the hostel each room has a private bathroom with a shower.

We booked this hotel as an inexpensive way to spend 12 hours to refresh before an overnight bus ride. It was perfect for this purpose. The room is a tad spartan but clean. The shower was quite functional and the location was central.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    I'm enjoyed swimming everyday especially after a workout and how close it was to centro, grocery stores, nearby daily fresh food markets, and taco stands. It was one of the best stays I've had while traveling in Mexico over the course of two years. I've stayed at hostels, hotels, Airbnb, and booking.

    We loved the pool! It was filled with beautiful, cool spring water! The entire family loved it! The room was large with a good sized family room, a full kitchen with refrigerator and a wonderful bathtub and shower! Overall the hotel was beautiful and had a great location. We will be back for sure!

    Juan, the host, is an extremely nice man who will go to great length to make your stay as comfortable as possible. The place is in a gated community, and very safe. Breakfast is great, with fruits, yoghurt, grains, coffee, pan dulce, and eggs to your liking. The room is great, richly decorated, comfortable, private. Beds are also very nice. I loved the little balcony in my room. Garden is very green and lush, with a little swimming pool - absolutely beautiful.

    The hotel is set in a really nice old colonial style building with a nice courtyard area. Rooms are very big, and very clean and modern with cable tv and wifi. Great location close to the centre of town. Very affordable prices!

    A/C is automatically set to 21° you can bot change it. It was cooler outside of the room. Bed is hard as a rock. Jets in the jacuzzi come on for 60 seconds every 10 minutes. The room was clean. Parking was nice, well lit and safe. Staff was kind and helpful.

    Perfect hotel centrally located yet quiet slightly set back off the main street. The lady in charge was welcoming, friendly and helpful. She spoke English - which was very handy. She gave us a choice of two rooms. Ours was light bright and spacious and clean. With everything you needed including a safe. There was a beautiful pool well maintained. Also a small breakfast each morning - coffee còokies fruit. I highly recommend this hotel with such lovely people running it.
