Beautiful hotel, great location and very nice staff. Comfortable and spacious room, delicious breakfast.
The switches in the room could be better located and tea in the room would be a great added value.

I loved it!
The breakfast was amazing and restaurant upstairs was my favorite. The food was delicious and cocktails even better. The service was excellent and the staff very professional and very friendly,
Wi-fi connection could be a little better.

Fabulous
The hotel is abosolutely stunning, and the staff are really friendly. The venue is also great, ver yclose to the cathedral and close to downtown shopping and the histle and bustle of the old town.
The rooms are really beautiful, however, our room was not very well insulated from a noise perspective. so it was quite noisy in the room when we were sleepong. Our room also was lacking in a few small facilities - ie only one hook for towels in the bathroom, no hooks fo rthe hand towel around the sink, no cup for toothbrush. But like I said, the room was really beautiful so willing to overlook these small things.

Lovely historic building in need of some additional managerial oversight
Beautifully renovated historic building. Comfy bed and very clean. Walking distance to historic sites and public transport system. Breakfast was good, but doesn't start serving until 8am and is "a la carte" so takes a while - given that on 2 of our 4 days we had 7:30-8 am starts we had to go without - think before you upgrade to a "breakfast included" package. Roof top terrace was a nice spot for a drink.
Paid for a suite with balcony. On check in were given a very noisy room with no windows. Were moved the following day, but never provided any compensation/explanation. Pre-ordered an airport transfer. This worked well, but on arrival at the hotel the price had changed from the prearranged 600 to 850 Pesos (concierge had sent a WhatsAp whilst we were on the flight, but a little late in the day for such an uplift when price agreed 6 months earlier). Hotel's explanation was the concierge is a franchise and not under their control! Tried to book a return trip, but hotel failed to pass on the message and so the ride never materialised. Just get an Uber - it cost $5 to airport. To sum up, staff on the front desk were very smiley and well meaning , but undertrained. Communication was an issue.

Unbeatable location
The location in Centro Historico next to Zocalo is unbeatable!
Due to the property housed in a historic hospital building from the 19th century, some rooms don’t have windows at all, feel like luxurious jail cells.

Nice stay but clean air is an issue here as in all of CDMX
- nice historic building - a la carte breakfast
- facilities limited, e.g. treadmill not functioning - air in room not good because no window can be opened for “fresh air” - restaurant expensive

We wanted a special hotel for our final night in Mexico and this place was perfect.
Fantastic location on a historic square and a short walk into the centre. Stunning building and restoration, extremely friendly and helpful staff, really great breakfast.
The lights in the foyer outside the room were on all night and the light spilled into the room because of lack of blinds or curtains up high. Really nnoying if you like a dark room for sleeping.

Enjoyable and within easy reach of the main centre
Given that we did not speak Spanish, we were delighted that the staff were able to converse in English. Jesus looked after us very well, suggested places of interest, local restaurants, arranged taxis & tours. The staff at breakfast were polite and looked after us attentively. Same for the evening meals at the restaurant.
Whilst our bedroom was good, it lacked air circulation and this made it uncomfortable. We sat in the open court area outside the bedroom to sit and relax but noted that this area was not always cleaned. There was no facility to boil hot water but we overcame this by asking for hot water in the restaurant which the staff willing gave.

Style, luxury and beautiful
This hotel is in the heart of Mexico City. It is in a busy district with a small park across the road and a church across the street. The hotel is beautiful and definitely not a cookie cutter American style chain hotel. The restaurant was great food excellent. Rooms are large and clean
There wasn't anything I didn't like, but if you are a picky traveller you need to consider this is in the city and there is some noise from time to time, but it is life noise. Bells ringing, people cars. The hotel is located in a corner of a square and is very lovely.
