"This is the second time for us at the Galeria Plaza Reforma. The staff are great and very welcoming. Location wise, the hotel is close to the Angel of Independence. There are plenty of great spots to visit within a 30 minute walk and a short Uber/Taxi/Didi ride will get you to plenty of sites within a 15 minute drive."

"This hotel has all the amenities that you would want in a hotel. Daily bed changes and towel changes. My wife and child got sick while staying here and they took very good care of us. Brought us extra water and cleaned the room thoroughly. Also the location can’t be beat. This hotel is a meeting spot for most excursions such as tolontongo trip and Teotihuacan pyramid tour. If we come back to cdmx we will most likely stay here again. Very convenient, clean and accommodating in so many ways."
