    Bird crap on our window
    K B.

    What a dump! We stayed for 1 night. This is the view we got. Bird crap all over the windows, and stopped up drainage area. The bathroom came with the wall attached shower gel, shampoo, conditioner. The shower gel and shampoo bottles were empty. They left us with 2 rolls of tp on the holder, both no more than 1/4 full, and no replacement rolls. The place seems nice when you pull up. Typical HGI, but this room at least needs help, a deep cleaning, and housekeeping to do a QC on rooms to make sure room is stocked for next guest. I'm giving them a lower score, not zero, only because there is ample parking, and walking distance to Cracker Barrel, Applebee's and a few other places. That was handy since they do not provide free breakfast like many other hotels in the same catagory.

    Out of all the hotels we stayed at on our vacation, this Hilton Garden has truly been the best and most amazing stay. This property is very peaceful, and very clean. The rooms were clean. The beds were super comfortable, and there was no noise. We slept SOOO good! Shauna the front office manager truly was wonderful, kind, welcoming and made our stay exceptional. Kindness does go a long way and the staff here were genuinely nice and friendly. She was very helpful on re-directing us to the best places to eat in town. Jonathan the young clerk in training was also very sweet and helpful. We really enjoyed our stay here and will always come back when passing through. If you are considering what lodging in Gallup to book, just do it, you won't be disappointed.

    This inn is conveniently located off the 40, surrounded by other hotels, restaurants and commerce. Our third floor suite overlooked a massive Home Depot parking lot, with a Walmart visible to the west. The space was fantastic and welcome; we were on the first leg of a cross-country move with two cats (yep, we paid the hefty fee to have them in the room) and they were able to work out some energy. They really did enjoy the vista of Home Depot. The front lobby had a small luggage cart that was great for moving their cage. The entry room includes a fold out bed, chair, TV, and kitchenette-bar with a mini fridge (no freezer) and coffee pot. There is an attached bathroom. The bedroom has another TV and a larger bathroom with a shower and separate jetted tub. The shower got hot fast and had great water pressure, but the door didn't completely close and so some water puddled outside. The hairdryer had a strong burnt popcorn smell but worked as intended. My husband used the exercise room and found key equipment to be broken or missing, and there only two towels available. There were no wipes to cleanse things. We didn't have issues with noises within the hotel, but trains could be heard through the night and it sounded like someone used a leaf blower in the Home Depot lot from about 3 to 3:30AM. Check out was fast in the morning, and we again used a cart to move our cats and gear to the car.

    I travel a lot for work. I've been Hilton Diamond for six years (after achieving lifetime Marriott status after 10+ years of 75+ nights a year). I'm not saying this to brag, I'm simply letting you know how many nights I've stayed at hotels, and why I'm giving five stars. The customer service cannot be beat. Everyone was SO nice. The fourth week of my stay when I checked in, I was greeted by name. For someone with almost 20 years of traveling under her belt, I've never been treated so kindly as the staff did here. So appreciated! Rooms are very clean and very well kept. Cleaner rooms than in New York City or Atlanta or Miami or Chicago. And, if you've read this far, my coworker and I sat in the restaurant area in the morning on our laptops the first week I was here from 10-2 and noticed there are several employees that clean up the lobby/restaurant and stock the pantry after breakfast that have developmental disabilities. Much respect for this property. The way they maintain it and run it. Highly recommend if you are on your way through and need a place to stay.

    I have had a nice one week stay in this HGI conveniently located off the interstate. It is well kept and the employees from the front desk to housekeeping are friendly. I especially appreciate the clean guest laundry with a window instead of the usual dingy rooms in many other properties. I have only used the restaurant/bar once and the experience was fine. If the short menu is not to your liking, Applebee's is a few steps away on the other side of the parking lot and Cracker Barrel a short block away. Essentials can be had from the very busy Walmart across the street

    This property has a great location. Near food, interstate, Rooms are clean, good parking, and the restaurant not bad.

    This is the buffet... oatmeal is only hot dish with anything inside. The steel tray in back is EMPTY.

    Worst Hilton I've ever been too! Had better stays at Motel 6. Paid $250 a night to literally have to pay $16.99 for the continental breakfast. I made the mistake of adding it to the room when I reserved, a complete waste of money! I just paid $12 for one Activia yogurt. The one hot tray they had was empty. Milk for my coffee was empty. Staff was rude and unhelpful. If you're charging this much at least make it look like the pictures you post that encourage customers to buy the Buffett. The picture below looks nothing like the business owner posts of what's available. Don't pay for this, it's an embarrassment you're even charging for this especially $16.99!?!?!?!

    I do not know what the issue is, but when we stayed here there was a bad sewer smell. Worse when taking the elevator.

    "Charm of Yesterday, Convenience of Tomorrow"…read more I visited this hotel a couple of times during my stops in Gallup over the past year. I have yet to stay here, but I have eaten at the restaurant and toured the lobby area. El Rancho Hotel opened in 1937 and was built to be a place for people in the film industry to stay at while filming movies in Gallup. Several western movies were filmed in the surrounding area during the 1940s and 1950s. There is a lot of history in this hotel. Many movie stars have stayed here including John Wayne, Lucille Ball, Humphrey Bogart, Gregory Peck and Ronald Reagan. In the lobby area are several photographs and memorabilia that pay tribute to El Rancho's rich past. Historic El Rancho Hotel is located on historic Route 66. You can't miss its neon sign out front. In addition to rooms, it has a restaurant with a bar and a large gift shop. We came here one night to explore the hotel and walk through the gift shop. A gentleman welcomed us and shared with us his many stories about this hotel. We enjoyed his company and he mentioned to us that there is a secret hidden room upstairs. We eventually figured out how to access the room and enjoyed all the cool stuff in there that pay homage to the past. The courtyard area in front of Historic El Rancho Hotel has chairs to sit and relax on. The upstairs balcony also has chairs. The lobby is my personal favorite place in this hotel because of its grand staircase and the many black and white photos on the wall. We ate at the restaurant one time and enjoyed some delicious New Mexican cuisine. Someday I will stay here. But if not, exploring this place is still fun and a nice throwback to the old days of Hollywood.

It certainly did not disappoint when it comes to a point-of-interest. Cool looking exterior and interior with lots of reference to the years gone by. They really play-up their ties to celebrities such as John Wayne, Humphrey Bogart, Lucille Ball and many more. Tons of framed and many autographed photos line the wall. Good luck finding and figuring out how to enter the hidden room. :) We got our Route 66 Passport stamped and enjoyed taking photos as we walked the property.

Check in was easy though the rate was higher than other Choice hotels that we had been to earlier in the trip. The desk clerk was pleasant. We checked-in to room 207 and it smelled fresh and it was clean. A nice room is always welcomed after a long day on the road. The A/C quickly cooled down the room. The bathroom was clean and bright, an important touch in this situation. The bed was firm and comfortable and we had a great night sleep. The breakfast area was clean and well maintained and it was good to find a couple protein choices among the carbs. Though, I will add that the eggs looked a little dry and had been out for a while. Checkout was easy and again the AM clerk was very friendly. It was nice to be back on the road in the morning refreshed and with a full belly. Kudos to all the housekeepers and staff for a nice stay. Choice hotels is almost always a good stop. This location did not disappoint. Peace.
