Right next to the National Cathedral, where Moctezuma's Palace once stood, this hotel in downtown Mexico City offers convenient amenities such as free on-site parking and a beautiful restaurant overlooking the famous Zocalo plaza. Housed in an 1890s-era building, Zócalo Central provides refurnished rooms and suites, including some with views of the Zocalo. They feature modern décor, a flat-screen TV, a work desk and a spacious private bathroom with free toiletries. Guests at the hotel can enjoy a meal at the restaurant’s rooftop terrace, or explore any of the nearby sights, with population attractions like the Fine Arts Palace or Alameda Park within a short 10-minute walk. The property also has a steam room. Zócalo Central features a front desk that can arrange a tour of the city or purchase tickets to shows or concerts. The Polanco business neighborhood is a 15-minute drive away, and Mexico City International Airport is a short 20-minute drive from the property.

Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 9.7 for a two-person trip.
