A+ for Hotel Catedral.
Our stay at Hotel Catedral was great, the staff, the cleaning crew were all great. The location of this hotel is perfect if you want to be close to many attractions including the Cathedral across the street and the plaza. The breakfast buffet was so delicious and we looked forward to it every morning. Also, just wanted to mention that the cleaning crew was awesome.

Amazing Hotel!
First of all they are built on top of an Aztec ruin with glass floors viewing it. Secondly the staff is over the top professional. The suit we had was beautiful and the hospitality is priceless. Right behind the Catderal location is perfect.

Perfect location
Perfect centralized location! Walk on the other side of the street and you're already behind the Catedral. Friendly staff, clean room and great cleaning services. Breakfast was good but nothing outstanding. We had a white wall outside our window, so no view

Excellent hotel with good amenities and good location in the Zocalo area.
For us, we did indeed do more around the Condesa and Chapultepec area but if this is near where you want to roam it’s a great choice!
