10/10 Excellent

"Good"

Hotel Bellas Artes

10/10 Excellent

"The national teachers union had thousands of their members staying in tents around the hotel and the surrounding area. They were justifiably unhappy about their scandalously low wages and changes to their pensions. The protesters were exceptionally nice people and the hotel staff maintained a respectful atmosphere in a challenging environment. I can’t say enough nice things about the young man who carried my bag for two blocks to pick up my Uber to the airport. Terrific service on his part. Belle Artes should be proud of their entire staff that showed up for work every day.Im sure it wasn’t easy. From housekeeping to the front desk;great job! Richard"

Gran Hotel Ciudad de Mexico Zocalo View

10/10 Excellent

"We were delighted to spend one night at this glorious hotel! A throw back in time with a beautiful stained glass ceiling and the feeling of opulence all around. Nothing makes you feel more alive than waking up in the middle of the historic district right next to the grand plaza. Taking breakfast in the Terrace reserved just for hotel guests overlooking the National Palace was a welcome treat. Rooms were spacious and comfortable. Having this beautiful hotel as an outpost with a busy day in the historic district was perfect! Lovely staff, exceptional service- all around impressive."

Hotel Ritz Ciudad de México

4/10 Poor

"The room and bathroom were clean, and the housekeeping staff was very polite. The entire staff was friendly, especially the restaurant team, who provided excellent service. The front desk staff was courteous; however, they were not very helpful in accommodating our request to have all three rooms for our group located together. Despite my request, we were assigned rooms on three different floors. We were told the hotel was fully booked, but it did not appear to be the case. The main drawbacks were the lack of a refrigerator in the room and the shower. The water pressure was low, and the showerhead caused water to splash everywhere, making it uncomfortable to use. Overall, the staff was pleasant and the hotel was clean, but a few improvements would make the stay much more enjoyable."
