“Hotel Templo Mayor sits right by the Antiguo Colegio de San Ildefonso Museum, a perfect spot for culture enthusiasts looking to dive into the city's history; I noticed the building itself echoes this with its 18th-century bones and handcrafted decorations. The hotel provides large water bottles and eco-friendly shampoo, which I think is a nice touch. For those seeking an authentic taste of Mexico City, this hotel places you right in the heart of it.”
