HOLIDAY INN EXPRESS CIUDAD DE MEXICO CONDESA BY IHG, Mexico City

The hotel sits on Insurgentes, a major artery with a Metrobus stop right outside (Line 1, connecting to the historic centre and airport via bus). The Roma and Condesa neighbourhoods are immediately accessible on foot, offering a wide selection of restaurants, cafés, bars, and boutiques. Chapultepec Forest and the Anthropology Museum are within a 30-minute walk or a quick bus ride. The World Trade Center Mexico is a few minutes away. While the street is busy, the location provides excellent walkability and public transport links, making a car unnecessary.

Guestrooms feature cable TV, work desks, and free Wi-Fi. Standard rooms rely on ceiling fans for cooling; only the deluxe suites have air conditioning. All rooms include a safety deposit box, ironing facilities, and a trouser press. No mini-fridges are provided, though the restaurant can store medication if needed. Rooms are compact; road-facing units experience traffic noise despite double-glazing. Some rooms have been recently renovated and are quieter, but the ongoing renovation affects many floors. Bed sizes vary: rooms with one or two beds are available. Bathrooms have walk-in showers with good water pressure, though hot water can be inconsistent. Hair dryers are available on request or in-room.

The hotel's restaurant, Restaurante Roosevelt, offers Mexican cuisine for breakfast, lunch, and dinner daily. Breakfast (available from 07:00) costs 280 MXN when not included in the room rate; it is a continental buffet with bread, pastries, fruit, and hot drinks. Room service is available during restaurant hours. Numerous cafés, bakeries, and restaurants are within a short walk in both Condesa and Roma, providing additional dining options for lunch and dinner. Happy hour drinks are available at the hotel for an additional charge.
