The staff were courteous, friendly, and supportive. They offered guidance on destinations and arranged transportation. The hostess and cook in the breakfast area were accommodating and delivered excellent service.

10/10 Exceptional

All staff members were extraordinary! Incredibly helpful when working with my 86 year old mother as we were trying to arrive to the hotel (streets were blocked for a commemoration demonstration). The porter walked 5 blocks to us, then handled her and the luggage. Throughout our stay, everyone and everything was exactly as it should be. I have stayed previously, and had the same experience before. Whenever I am in Mexico City, this will always be my hotel of choice.

Spotless, spacious room and helpful staff made this a great place for my 4-day stay as a solo first-timer in CDMX. Plus the location can't be beat. Close to everything important for tourists. I would stay again and will recommend it to couples, families and singles.

Ask for a room on the 6th floor with a balcony you won’t regret it. Room 603 is where we stayed and we had a blast on the balcony. Everyone was friendly and it was very safe.
