Fodor's Expert Review One Ciudad de México Alameda

A central location across from the Alameda Central is the main selling point for this serviceable hotel, opened in March 2014. Catering to business travelers on a budget, this property features cordial service and clean, functional rooms decorated with black-and-white historical photographs and pops of bright colors, plus parquet floors and marble baths. A breakfast buffet is served daily in the simple Ikea-style café area on the ground floor, where the carnivalesque music of the city's ever-present organ grinders wafts in from the street; a small outdoor patio off the lobby with a (fake) ivy-covered wall is a nice place to sit and work, while taking advantage of the free Wi-Fi available throughout the property.

room

Small but tidy and modern. Ask for one not facing the street or noise could be an issue.

bathroom

Well-designed for their tiny size.

lobby

Bright and welcoming, with several tables and chairs ideal for catching up on emails in a more spacious environment than your room.

dining

Complimentary breakfasts are crowded but the staff keeps everything well-stocked. No other on-site dining is available after breakfast.
