Circulo Mexicano

Absolutely amazing!

Liked: Everything, our stay was perfect. It felt like 5 star service, all of our needs were met and the staff in the hotel wouldn’t allow us to lift a finger when it came to any of our ask. Absolutely amazing hotel, the rooms were beautiful and of such high quality and so unique. The included breakfast is amazing with a choice of many dishes which are freshly prepared every morning. We really enjoyed using the sauna and the pool early in the morning right after breakfast to start our day.
Disliked: This nothing really to do with the property and mainly our choice of location, we felt that as it’s so central the surrounding hustle and bustle of the area made it difficult to relax outside of the hotel.

Cool hotel, great location.

Liked: Great location, we loved this hotel, it it quirky, clean and minimilist. Our room was big with modern amenities.Super little pool and restaurant/bar on the roof overlooking the sqaure.Staff were very helpful especially when we arrived and left due to the teachers strike distruptions. Would recommend this hotel.

Superb

Beautiful modern boutique hotel in...

Liked: Location and its modern interiors
Disliked: The libby lacked lighting.

Very good

Liked: Despite catering more to foreign tourists than locals, the experience at Círculo Mexicano provided us with a very first glimpse of Mexico. Its location allowed us to experience the real city.
Disliked: Could not try the sandals (they were none in our room :/ )

Great Hotel, Shitty Area

Liked: The staff was lovely, room was great but quite loud (e.g. the airco especially, and i could hear lots of loud noises from other rooms and the hallway). The rest was perfect, especially the rooftop!
Disliked: Lots of noise in the rooms and the location is definitely not the best/most friendly for tourists, so you need to be very careful in the area.

Disappointing

Liked: The design is very cool and thoughtful. We had superior larger rooms in overlooking the square, which were very good size.
Disliked: Quite a few things:- water in the pool is ice cold. It is not intended for people to swim, but rather to get in and out when it is hot- breakfast included are a complete disaster: super limited offer and namely says “1 piece of bread”. There are no European options like avocado toast or similar (no French toast or pancakes, you can forget about it). Most people took poached eggs, black coffee (cappuccino not included), and pay additional for avocado (in Mexico…). The restaurant staff is super slow, brings wrong staff and doesn’t speak English. Takes ages to have a simple breakfast. Salt is not on the table and they have to fetch it, usually takes 5 minutes. Basically, you end up paying for it to get anything “extra” normal. - water in the rooms is limited to 1 carafe. They don’t have more carafes in the hotel is you ask for it. - bathroom on the ground floor is not for customers, but for staff only. So if you are waiting for a taxi, please go upstairs to use wc.- no coffee/tea, sleepers, bathrobes or similar in the rooms - reception female staff is not very fast and not particularly welcoming. Very factual, and slow with any requests. These are just a few to name. Since this hotel has been in a few city guides and designer magazines like Cabana, it turned out very disappointing
