Top Mexico and Central America Hotel Reviews

Gran Hotel Ciudad de Mexico Zocalo View

Gran Hotel Ciudad de Mexico Zocalo View

10/10 Excellent
"A true gem of awe-inspiring 19th century art-nouveau architecture and design that is centrally located in the Zocalo with a terrace view worth taking in. The only features that exceed its elegant feel is the top-notch service from the staff and its generous amenities. Rooms were immaculately clean with generous toiletries daily. The gym is modern and spacious. The food was gastronomically exceptional and original yet consisting of traditional cultural ingredients in addition to being discounted 30% for hotel guests. Public transportation is easily accesible and many city highlights and attractions are in the immediate proximity or within reasonable distance. This establishment is what a hotel should strive to be in every sense. It was worth the indulgence and I am truly glad to have booked here as the memory of its grandeur will forever be cherished as an indelible memory of my stay in Mexico City. Book it, you’ll be glad you did."
