Hotel Details

Location

In the historic centre, 10 minutes' walk from the Zócalo, with Metrobus (300 m) and metro (600 m) stations nearby.
The hotel is situated on a pedestrian-friendly street in the heart of Mexico City's historic district, steps from the Templo Mayor, Metropolitan Cathedral, and National Palace. During the day, the area is filled with market stalls and street vendors, which can make it difficult for taxis and Ubers to reach the hotel. At night, the streets become quieter; visitors typically plan return trips by taxi or stick to well-lit main roads. The airport is about 25 minutes away by car without traffic. No parking or airport shuttle is available.

Accommodation

Rooms are decorated with Talavera tiles and include a private bathroom with rain shower, cable TV, ceiling fan, and free Wi-Fi.
The hotel offers standard double rooms, triple rooms with a bunk bed setup, and quadruple rooms that can sleep up to four adults. Some larger rooms have two bathrooms, adding convenience for groups. All rooms feature a desk, wardrobe, and electronic lock. However, there is no air conditioning - cooling is provided by ceiling fans only. Rooms with windows to the outside are brighter and better ventilated; interior rooms that face a covered courtyard tend to be darker and warmer. The building has thin walls, so noise from adjoining rooms or the central hall may be audible. Daily housekeeping is included. Some rooms offer views of the street or courtyard, but no rooms have a balcony.

Dining

No restaurant or breakfast service on site; several cafés and restaurants are within a short walk.
The hotel does not have a dining facility, restaurant, or breakfast offering. A coffee vendor operates outside in the morning, and guests can find a variety of casual eateries within 5-10 minutes on foot, including Sor Juana Cafe (0.5 km) and Restaurante Catedral (0.5 km). More formal dining is available near the Zócalo, about 600 m away. Note that rooms are not equipped with a kettle or coffee maker for in-room hot drinks.

Facilities and Services

Free Wi-Fi, 24-hour reception, daily housekeeping, luggage storage, lift, rooftop terrace, and laundry service.
The hotel provides free Wi-Fi in all areas. The 24-hour front desk staff are available around the clock (ring the bell if the main doors are closed after hours). Daily housekeeping and luggage storage are complimentary. A lift serves all floors. The rooftop sun terrace is a pleasant spot for relaxing, and the property also features a central patio with a trencadís fountain. Laundry service is available (fee may apply). Safety features include CCTV, key access, and a security alarm. Pets are accepted for 400 MXN per night, with restrictions on size and behaviour. There is no parking, no pool, and no spa. Payments are accepted via Visa.

Top Strategic Tips

  • 01

    Use the free luggage storage upon early arrival to explore the historic centre without waiting for check-in.

  • 02

    Request a room with windows to the outside, as some rooms open only to the interior courtyard and lack ventilation.

  • 03

    No on-site restaurant is available; plan meals ahead using nearby cafés and restaurants within 5-10 minutes' walk.

  • 04

    Use the Metrobus station (300 m) for central transport - street vendors often block taxi and Uber access.
