Best location and hotel in Mexico City .
It was my first time in Mexico City and Hotel Central Balcon Del Zocalo was the best choice for location and the hotel was absolutely great. The best food and the best view. Easy walking distance to the Bellas Artes. Easy Ubering to anywhere you want to go. Mexico in general is where you want to visit . The best country to give your tourism to

Amazing hotel with great staff
We had the best experience at Zocalo Hotel and Rooftop. The concierge and front desk were amazing and attentive. They spend so much time orienting us to the hotel and to the area. They were generous with drinks and encouraged us to relax and have a good time. We had the two junior suites overlooking the Zocalo and the views were magical! Will definitely be back
