When looking for hotels for my stay in Mexico city, I found lots of good comments about Gran Hotel Ciudad de Mexico. The good comments were too good that almost made me doubt them not "real".

This beaux-arts historic hotel is wonderful; large rooms with high ceilings, unbeatable location, excellent amenities, and palatial hotel lobby and entrance. However, the service does not warrant a 5 star. The service is surprising perfunctory, and does not match the grandeur of the hotel. My magnetic key had problems every single day and had to be reprogrammed twice every day... More

Hello, The hotel is fantastic, as is the beautiful room where we stayed. There was a little problem with the shower, which was fixed immediately. The American Breakfast was very nice, as was the service from start to finish. I must ask which room we stayed in, so we can ask for this room again! More

Upon arrival the whole layout is quite stunning, with an amazing art nouveau entrance and lobby area up to stunning stained-glass roof. The rooms are old-world charming, with four-poster beds and curtains around the bath. We had a corner room on the third floor, overlooking the Zocalo square - quite perfect (although the carpet could have done with a good... More
