i loved the hotel but for almost 300 dollars a night you’re just paying for an aesthetic. I don’t like to say comments on anything honestly but it was quite shocking! The zocalo was closed down so i had to walk for like 10 min from where i was dropped off with 2 suitcases and a backpack the greet you take you to your room just to find out you can’t even have nothing from the fridge keep in mind it’s locked too so if you take any cold drinks to store in your fridge it’s literally sealed shut lol. Pool is very nice and there’s also a like hot tub but only fits like 2 people at a time. View is very beautiful so i can’t complain. Breakfast is nice but not everything is included also the waiters have a attitude towards people only the morning ones not the lady at night she was beautiful didn’t see her anymore to tip her which made me feel bad. Overall this is my experience everyone has different experiences.

best hotel in Mexico City by far. The location can’t be beat and the view from the rooftop is unreal. service is excellent and we spend most of our time between the rooftop sauna and jacuzzi. The design and layout is stunning, you are lucky if you have the opportunity to stay here.

The breakfast was a great highlight, we found ourselves to be excited for what pastry selection we were going to be offered each day as they were one of the best we’ve had. Also, inside the hotel there is absolutely no issues with the noise from outside, at least in the room we were in, but the rooftop and as soon as you exit the hotel means that you entering a busy and touristy area.

Loved the hotel, staff and amazing location. Just be aware the hotel is across the street from an historic cathedral that is closed to taxis/ubers so you need to walk a couple of blocks to get picked up or dropped off. But the location is totally worth it!

Zen space in historic city centre

Círculo is a revelation. Beautifully designed bedrooms, friendly staff and a thoughtful space. The roof top is well thought out. The bar could be more lively - it was empty most of the time and smoking is not permitted. But overall wonderful stay.
