Beautiful facilities and great service from the staff.
This one is all about the location. Don’t get me wrong, the hotel itself was quite nice(see below), but you’ll be hard-pressed to find a better situated hotel in Mexico City.
Hotel Hippodrome sits right atop Parque Mexico (perhaps the nicest park in Mexico City) straddling the charming and leafy Condesa and Roma Norte neighborhoods. The area is safe, quiet, and full off great dining, coffee, and nightlife options. Mercado Roma, Parian Condesa, Buna 42, Lalo, Contramar, La Clandestina, Merotoro, and many other similar offering are all a short walk from the hotel.
The area is also the most central to other areas visitors typically seek out - Polanco, Centro Historico, Coyoacan, San Angel, Juarez, Zona Rosa, etc. Given the size of Mexico City, this might be more important than you think.
The service is what you’d expect from an small, upscale hotel - a welcome drink, responsive staff, delicious continental breakfast you can take in your room, in the restaurant, or out on the sidewalk. The rooms are comfortable and nicely appointed with new furniture and Sonos music systems.
Overall, I felt my stay was a great value and would highly recommend.
This barely got 4 stars. The staff is terrific and the location is phenomenal, but to be honest, the room was very, very small and the amenities were lacking. A great perk, however, was access to a nearby gym. Overall, I'd recommend this, as long as you don't plan on spending much time in your room.
Very nice hotel, kind service, but so noisy neibhors in the evening, and in the morning you wake up for the noise of the chairs out side in the street ( cleaning staff pull them )
good work
👍
Very good
Awesome, beautiful rooms and excellent service
Small boutique hotel. Romantic and super location. No pool and no gym. Weak AC. Impossible to get the temperature in the room below 75F/25C. We were there 5 days and the AC ran non-stop. Rooms are not noise proof. Heard the neighboring guests. Dangerous elevator for a kid who could easily get their hand stuck.
