I stayed at this hotel during my trip to Mexico City and absolutely loved it. The location couldn’t be better — it’s right next to the Zócalo and the Metropolitan Cathedral, which makes it super convenient for sightseeing and exploring the historic center. The breakfast was included and honestly one of my favorite parts of the stay — delicious, fresh, and served in a lovely setting. The room rate also included access to the café downstairs, which was such a pleasant surprise and made the experience even more enjoyable. Overall, the hotel offers incredible value for money, with an amazing location, great service, and wonderful food. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Mexico City.
