Gran Hotel Ciudad de Mexico Zocalo View

8/10 Good
"As the saying goes: location, location, location. If you want the full Mexico City experience, this is one of the best places to stay. The hotel is right in the heart of the Historic Center, within walking distance of major landmarks such as Palacio de Bellas Artes and Palacio Nacional. A word of advice: use Uber rather than local taxis. When I asked the front desk to arrange a taxi to Palacio de Bellas Artes, the front desk quoted a fixed price of 400 pesos before even calling the driver. Very suspicious and unfortunately, it reflects badly on the staff who were very attentive. In contrast, every Uber ride we took to the same destination cost between 70–90 pesos, depending on the time of day. That discrepancy is perhaps one reason the property doesn’t quite reach five-star standards. That said, the location and the building itself more than make up for it. The architecture is truly one of a kind, staying here feels like being part of Mexico City’s living history."
