It's easy yo acces the location, the rooms are good in space and are clean the service it's ok
Its a amazing hotel, with a beatiful room, the Arabia seen in everything. Very nice
Nice and smooth. Staff was great and service to room was awesome.
The hotel is nice, clean, modern. It's not exactly a place for families. More of a romantic vibe. The rooms are nice but the bed was a bit hard and the pillows could be better. The location was great, and there's a nearby bridge to walk over the highway and go to the flower market and other places. Plenty of dining options nearby. I don't recommend the restaurant there. Staff was a little annoyed that we had kids, but it worked out ok for a couple nights. Underground parking was free, easy, and secure.
Epic couples retreat! Had a great time with my wife, Hotel is very nice, affordable and clean. Staff is very attentive.
Parking, security and good service. The room did not worked as expected, the electrical outlets and some lights were not functioning. Aside from that , I could sleep really well.
The room is very modern and very nice the employees are very cordial and accecibles
Along with many others, booked this place not realising it was 'romance' hotel but what does that matter? The room was clean and room service was fast. You would never know other than the occasional noise at night.
Iconic, festive area where visitors ride colorful gondola-like boats on pre-Columbian canals.
Curated spots travelers usually pair with a stay in Mexico City. Distances are rough real-world times, not straight-line.
