I'm in Mexico City twice a year and I always stay at the Isabel! As you can see from the reviews of Tripadvisor, it's not everyone's cup of tea. On the positive side, the hotel is located less than a ten minute walk to the Zocalo. I've always found the neighborhood safe and friendly. The old colonial-style building has a... More

The benefits of staying here are the location, large rooms, and cable TV. The water system has been sporadic over the last 2 nights. Currently the hot water tap gurgles and produces a brown liquid. The hot water doesn't work anyway. There have been frequent blackouts, and the hotel's generator only covers the lobby and restaurant. Wifi works in the... More

Has emenities like Wi Fi (a bit slow), Room service, room safe, tv, a homey cafe and bar. Seems to be popular with European tourist.... More

I´ve been staying here for the past five summers. It's not the Ritz or even the Holiday Inn, but it's clean, inexpensive, safe, and within walking distance to the metro and many tourist destinations. There is no spa and you pay to use the computers in the lobby. Internet access for your laptop is available. I've never used room service,... More

Clean & quiet and an easy walk to the historical parts of the city. No breakfast included but a good restaurant attached and a fun little bar to meet the locals and try the tequila! More

I spent two weeks in Mexico on business, four nights at this Hotel. Hotel Isabel was recommended, by a friend who had stayed here previously, as a base for exploring the Historic Centre. It is situated a couple of blocks from the Zocalo and very convenient for the whole of the historic centre. My room was very large with an... More
