Narrative:
At FL360 approximately 100 mi west of ZZZ1 we received a hydraulic G lo lvl ECAM. We completed ECAM in accordance with established procedures. After consultation with dispatch and maintenance the decision was made to divert to ZZZ. En route all applicable checklists were run; reviewed; or referenced. Landing distance was reviewed and longest runway available was selected at ZZZ. Flight attendants accomplished a cabin advisory. Emergency was declared and uneventful landing was performed at ZZZ. Clear of the runway engines were shut down and aircraft inspected by fire crews. Everything appeared normal and aircraft was towed to the gate.
