Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Downtown Mexico is often praised for its central location, steps away from the Zocalo and near the Palacio de Bellas Artes, nestled within a well-preserved historic building in the Centro Histórico area. Guests consistently highlight the beautiful, spacious rooms and enjoy the rooftop bar and pool, which offers great views; however, some guests have noted noise from events held at the pool late into the night. Many appreciate the complimentary breakfast with fresh food and the overall fantastic atmosphere, particularly enjoying the restaurants and boutique shops on the second floor.

charmed by the downtown experience!

central locationhistoric buildingfunky smell

the location is central, steps from the zocalo area. i found a very well-preserved historic building within the centro histórico area. the hotel and guest rooms boast a really nice, contemporary design. i think the rooftop bar and pool have great views of the surrounding rooftops!

room number 3 had a distinct, funky smell. i suspect it was due to the air conditioner. this was good, even though the cleanliness was very good in general.

the rooftop bar provides excellent views with a relaxing atmosphere, and i loved that the pool area is spacious. two restaurants are available in the courtyard providing dining options. i liked the overall lively vibe!

Location

the hotel is in the heart of the city, a short walk to the main square and cathedral. i loved that i could easily explore the city's historical sites. i also found uber rides readily available to other neighborhoods.
