Hotel Templo Mayor

Hotel Templo Mayor was clean, comfortable, and quiet. The shower was hot and had great pressure. The beds were comfortable and the fan was really quiet but good. There were big windows great for people watching. The location was great too!

There was never a hand towel for the bathroom, and not enough toilet paper for four people, we had to keep asking for an extra roll. The TV didn't work!

The hotel is in the middle of the historic area, so busy with people, shops, traffic. The location is fantastic - a stroll away from the Templo Mayor excavations and museum, and the Zocalo. The hotel is an oasis of quiet and calm, very well organised, and Reception was permanently manned. The street outside our.rooms was pedestrianized, so there was no noise at night. We felt safe and that our stuff was secure. The staff were all extremely helpful and pleasant. The rooms were minimalist, but comfortable and clean, with water provided every day. Coffee and some drinks were available at Reception. The roof terrace was a delight. Excellent value.

Maybe a bedside light could be provided.

We returned to HTM at the end of our trip around Mexico, because we knew it was well-run, clean, secure, quiet, comfortable. The location is superb - near the Zocalo, and the Zocalo metro (for trips to Xochimilco), and the Abelardo market for fruit and vegetables. We ate our fruit and veg on the lovely roof terrace. The streets nearby are busy, chaotic and, walking back at night we experienced the odd drunk shouting at the gringos, but one of the streets is pedestrianised, so the rooms are quiet. The rooms are on 3 floors around a central space, but there was no noise at night from other residents. We could get coffee (instant with powdered milk) from Reception for $20, and they serve tequila and other spirits. Alvaro was very helpful and attentive, as were all the staff. The cleaners are always visible, changing rooms, mopping floors and emptying bins. The place was spotless.

Everything was fine.

The front desk staff were friendly and helpful. The place was very clean, the room with spotless. Please remember to tip the cleaners who clean your room. They really worked hard! The location was close to the Zocalo easy walking distance to the central historic area.

The area was a little seedy. It’s right in the middle of a very busy market during the day. It’s too noisy to take any kind of nap. At night I wouldn’t want to walk east of here at all. Did not look safe. Walking in the direction of the Zocalo was ok at night, but around 8:00 pm they gated off that area around Templo Mayor so it was difficult (scary for female travelers in my opinion) to walk home at night. There were no little restaurants and only on teeny little stores to buy any food (chips and soda mainly) close to this hotel. I would try moving west of here, closer to the Zocalo, next time.

we just stayed for one night, hotel is close to the airport, well located, we felt save in the evening, staff is really kind and helpful. I liked the bathroom, cozy mattress, water in the room - good value for the price, would book again!

Great location and very helpful staff! The bed was firm with big pillows. It's located near most main attractions and has some movement at night, which made us feel safer walking back. It's nice to have breakfast service in the patio!

Because there's no A/C, the bathroom can get very hot. The fan definitely does the trick in the bedroom, though.

Great central location in nice building. Basic, but spacious room with massive bed. Hotel was clean and staff were friendly.

A little noisy from the street below, but quiet in the night. Few electrical outlets

The room (308) was of good size and the wifi was really strong and reliable. The bed was comfortable and linen was good quality. Room was cleaned daily and the staff were kind and helpful. The location is probably not going to suit everyone, but it suited me fine. If you are not prepared for the manic streets of Mexico city then it will take a day or two to get use to it.

The only thing I did not like was the noise made by other guests, this isn't really the hotels fault, but certain guests just did not seem to understand that they were not in their own home. Room could benefit from a mini fridge and in room safe.

This was our second stay. Overall, it is a well-run, great simple place. Check-in went really well, the room was clean (except for one dead bug in the sheets which I suspect came from the laundry service and not the hotel itself) and it's always the same great location close to everything.

The central yard echoes through the entire hotel and it can be loud at night. We had a group that showed up at 4 in the morning and it looks like the staff didn't ask them (or was not able to make them) to keep it down. The friendliness of the front office varies depending on who is working at any time. I am glad we were welcome by this sweet lady we met on our first stay.

Really enjoyed the central location and the staff.

Got overcharged big time on our dog. I asked beforehand what the extra costs would be, but didn't get a response.. Thought it would be fine as it's normally around $100 Mexican pesos. Upon arrival they told us $400 Mexican pesos per night, we paid it, but it is way too much.
