HOTEL OXFORD, Mexico City

Hotel Oxford sits in a convenient, well-connected area of Mexico City, 11 km from Benito Juarez International Airport. The Museo de Memoria y Tolerancia is a 12-minute walk away, and the Museum of Fine Arts and Museo de Arte Popular are also within a 15-20 minute walk. The Revolution metro and metrobus stations are within a few blocks, providing direct routes to the historic centre and the airport. The neighbourhood has a gritty character, with a park across the street that is popular during the day but attracts a significant presence of homeless individuals, prostitutes, and police activity at night. While the immediate surroundings feel less safe after dark, the main avenues and tourist areas remain easily walkable. A variety of inexpensive restaurants, street food, and convenience stores are within a short walk.

Rooms at Hotel Oxford are notably large and offer good value. Each includes a private bathroom with a shower, free toiletries, a wardrobe, and a TV with cable channels. Rooms facing the small park in front have large windows and good natural light, while interior rooms may have no window at all. There is no air conditioning or ceiling fan, making rooms quite warm, especially in summer. The windows are single-glazed and may not close fully, which, combined with thin walls and nearby street activity, means noise can be a significant issue. The hotel has an older feel; some furniture is dated and floor coverings may show wear. Daily housekeeping is provided, and complimentary bottled water is left in the room. The property has no elevator, so rooms on upper floors involve climbing stairs.

There is no spa, swimming pool, or gym at Hotel Oxford. The main leisure option is the small park directly opposite the hotel, which has benches, a fountain, and is a popular spot for locals during the day. For more extensive leisure and entertainment, the area has several bars, a dance hall, and is a short walk from the Monument to the Revolution and nearby entertainment venues.
