Hotel Principal: reception speaks limited English. The hotel is located just a couple of block from the center (Zocalo) - it is a 10-15 minute walk. The hotel has 4 floors in a corridor like feeling. Unfortunatelly the elevator is small and slow as well and that is a downside of the hotel. The rooms: very simple rooms - we... More

The hotel is very affordable and has a great location but.. My room was the size of a shoe box, no windows and wasn't very clean. But the worst was the noise at night. I was being constantly woken up, someone coughing in a room 2 floors above you will keep you awake, sound carries here like at a philharmonic... More

This was our first visit to Mexico City & we wanted an affordable place that was both close to the Zocalo and not too close due to noise. Hotel Principal was a fair place on both counts. I reserved online through booking.com a king room w/ private bath for under $40/ night. When we got to the hotel and showed... More

Although you don't hear street noise, one crying baby really disturb your sleep. Staff was very nice and room was clean. Price was great - small room with 2 people costs only 370 pesos/night. More

It's in a great location, near the Zocalo, metro stations, lots of food & restaurants around. The room we stayed in (king bed room) was really nice, clean & modern. Included was a bottle of water each per day, shampoo, soap etc. No fridge or breaky included. The restaurant was overpriced, but there's lots of food around to choose from.... More

Positives: - 5 minutes walk from the zocalo - 3 minutes walk from the nearest metro (Allende) - 2 minutes from main shopping street/Starbucks:) and bars - nice staff - helpful and English-speaking and patient with our attempts to speak Spanish - basic, but clean rooms, with a daily cleaning service Negatives: - rooms have windows to the main hall...

The bigest advantage of this hotel is it´s location - 200 or 300m west from the Plaza Mayor, close to several Metro-stations, lots of shops and eating possibilities within short walk-distance. The rooms are basic but clean, hot shower, TV and even safe represent satisfactory equipment for this low-price category of accomodation. The main problem is the construction of the... More

The hotel is 2 min walking from central square, we found staff is very helpful (we left them bags for 1 month storage, all information we needed they provided, own secure taxi servis - a bit more expensive than street taxi, but really secure, which is important in Mexico), safe box in the room. The hotel have 5 kinds of... More

We stayed here for a few nights, great central location, nice rooms, two computers with internet. Big comfortable rooms with thick walls. We took one of the king sized rooms with a view of the street, it was cheaper and (in my estimation) nicer than the "plus" rooms we saw, which were more costly. Though there was a lot of... More
