Sergio United States of America

beautiful grand hotel. They escort you to your room up the grand elevator and give you a brief history of the hotel. staff was very helpful

Rachel United States of America

great location, great service, unbelievable beauty and history! our home away from home!

Salvador United States of America

You cannot beat the location of this hotel. You're right at the heart of the city. The rooftop restaurant overlooks the main Plaza and is worth visiting even if you're not staying there. But my goodness....we had that view from our room. It was amazing. The stained glass ceilings in the lobby are stunning and the room was huge. We stayed in a suite overlooking the Plaza which as luck would have it was doing a nightly light show that we were able to watch from the room. My jaw was on the floor at how great everything was. Breakfast was delicious. Because of Covid they brought everything to you instead of a buffet, which was lovely. I must admit...I totally chose this hotel because of James Bond but even still, I was blown away.

Jaimee United States of America

The best place you can stay in Zocalo. it was my birthday and Hotel welcomed me with a nice surprise: small Birthday cake. Location, food, room, view, staff - everything is top rated.
