Zócalo Central has 105 rooms and is housed in the former residence of Hernán Cortés at the heart of Mexico's main plaza, Zócalo. The side-street entrance opens up to a 24-hour reception, which also has a concierge service. There's also a welcoming café.
The guest rooms are spread across six floors and have a tasteful modern style. They can accommodate between one and four adults and come with either interior, street or Zócalo-facing windows. The seventh floor rooftop is home to the property's restaurant, Balcón del Zócalo, which serves authentic Mexican dishes with a modern twist and an interesting mix of cocktails at the bar area.
We like this property's location, which is ideal for exploring the historic part of the capital. What really makes this hotel special, though, are the views of the Zócalo. Please note that you're likely to hear some noise due to the close proximity of Mexico's largest plaza, which can host performances, protests and rallies.
