Excellent location, walkable area, very close to El Zócalo. It's a commercial area, the hotel is surrounded by a variety of local businesses and commercial premises. The entrance is a little hidden, it was a little hard to find at the beginning but the staff of the hotel is very friendly and we had no problem with the check in.

It was a nice hotel, I felt very safe as I am a female traveling alone. The area was very busy during the day but quiet at night. Lots of policemen/women at all times. Only thing I didn’t like was that the bed was super hard and it made it difficult to get a good night’s rest. Mattress are hard as rocks. But other than that it was a good place to stay.

I adore the staff of this hotel its location and the feeling of safety. It is in the middle of a chaotic market place but at night it becomes a quiet residential place. I’ve stayed in this place every time I came to Mexico and I have recommended it to my friends who came and stayed too.

Great location At affordable price

The area is imperfect location had a good price. Some rooms could be a bit hot usually the ones with the king size bed and bunk bed are more airy. I really enjoy the rooftop they have you can have breakfast or just go up there for a good view. Fresh air All Staff were very polite

Hotel Templo Mayor is a cute little place to stay when in in Mexico City it was easy to walk around and very very close to all the good food and zocalo y all of historic center. All I would add is that there is no AC but luckily at night it cools off. Staff was extremely friendly and sweet. Rooms were nicely cleaned and overall very quiet and cute hotel. Keep it going, I recommend it!

I’m rating my stay as excellent because here you get exactly what you pay for. Clean and safe. Staff are very friendly. There is a market right outside the hotel, with lots of crowds and music however me nor my partner never felt unsafe in the area. Also, our room faced the market and the windows are completely sound proof when closed so noise was never an issue. If you’re looking for a place in the historic district for a good price, this is a good choice.

We like that our room had 1 queen bed and 1 bunk bed and 2 full bathrooms, building has elevator a nice view from the terrace. The only thing is that we felt a little bit hot in the room, it has a plug in fan but make noise so we opened the windows and my family got insects bites we didn’t see any mosquitoes so we don’t know what kind of bugs were inside of the room. Other than that we liked the place, is very close to the Zocalo & Catedral only 3 blocks, restaurants, shops are close too.

Clean hotel, Neighborhood safe daytime

Lobby, common areas, and rooms are clean and well maintained. Rooms meet basic needs: clean bedding and bath towels clean and in good condition. Reminder: No hand towel, facecloth, bathmat, facial tissue or coffee maker. Only one outlet in room. The hotel is on a street closed to cars. Although I felt safe during the day, I did not so much after day time. Some locals advised me not to walk the neighborhood east of the hotel at night. I still recommend the hotel if you want to be in the Zona Historica.

This hotel is close to all the major sites in the historical centre, a bus line to the airport and many other transport options to further-flung sites such as Frida and Leon. Food is not at the front door but a five- to ten-minute walk away. The area is very busy during the day but quiet at night. The rooms are very clean indeed and the bathrooms are spacious for a three-star hotel. There is plenty of hot water. The beds are comfortable. It is a great choice for a three-star hotel. If you’ve come to Mexico City to sit in a hotel room all day this property is not for you. But if you want to see the sights and your self-esteem doesn’t depend on how many stars your hotel has then this a great choice. I did miss some things that could be reasonably expected. One was a kettle in the room for making my own tea. Another was English-language t.v., although I don’t know how much that might cost this hotel. There are also no laundry facilities despite what it says here, but the Lavanderia Congreso de la Union is a short bus trip or fifteen-minute walk away.
