The staff was amazingly attentive. We trunly enjoyed breakfast buffet on the rooftop. We also love the 24 hour central cafe. I didn’t have to stress about obtaining my morning coffee. They also had delicious food such as pizza, salads and sandwiches. The drinks such as cokes, juice, carbonated water and bottled water were always chilled to perfection. Truly an excellent stay. Would highly recommend anyone traveling to Mexico City to experience this amazing hotel and it’s amenities. 10/10 experience
