Fantastic hotel. The breakfast was a highlight. Be warned that the bathrooms, though beautiful, were “open concept”. The location between the Palacio de Belles Artes and the Cathedral, right next to a wonderful walking street was perfect. No taxis needed!

All the staff are helpful and friendly. The experience probably depends on which room you are allocated. I booked a queen room. It turned out to have no window, very dark, and the high ceiling gives a creepy feeling. I acknowledge this may be a personal taste.

The room was beautiful and huge. It was loud outside (our room faced the street), but with the fan on and the doors closed it was fine. We didn't need the ear plugs the hotel provided. Room was a bit dark with the windows closed, though. Lights were dim. Very romantic!

I suggested on our last nite that breakfast plates should be pre-heated especially that mornings are pretty chilly. On the morning we left, I got a nice surprise with an omelette, fried beans and sautéed zucchini with corn on a hot plate! Just the best!

Downtown Hotel Mexico, was fantastic. Great location in the hub of the city, a short walk to the main square & cathedral. The hotel is in a historic building, which has a lively vibe with 2 restaurants in its coutyard. For more of a relaxing atmosphere, head to the rooftop bar & pool, which have great views of the rooftops. Staff were extremely friendly & helpful, with the hotel in great condition, clean, given the age of the historic building. If you are after a quiet retreat, it may not be your cup of tea, but we loved it!!
