    No complaints. Had a pleasant stay. Airport transportation provided, also, so no complaints...

    Just a few blocks from the Zocalo square, this hotel's staff manages to offer warmth and a very friendly attitude to its guests. While this was a one-day only stay, I would definitely come back....

    Everything was great!

    The staff was incredibly welcoming and helpful very nice. The building itself is so charming, it's old but well kept up and very clean and you can't beat the location it's a 3 minute walk to El Zócalo maybe a 10 minute walk to El Palacio de Bellas Artes very in the middle of everything.

    I stayed during a very hot day. My room was stuffy. No window to the outdoors. John Ross wrote a wonderful description 14 years ago wrote the following: "Those who take rooms at the Isabel are Costa Ricans on a Mexico City shopping spree and Tabasco farmers in town of Alcoholics Anonymous jamboree and a few Mennonites in overalls from Chihuahua who have come to the big city to sell cheese. During a political season -- i.e. a visit from the Zapatistas--North American radicals take up transient residencies.... pornographic videos are the only movies made here." Unfortunately, the action was not this colorful inside and the hotel was rather empty and quiet.

    Wonderful location in a historic hotel. The bathroom was great. Very clean and private. Lobby and public areas upstairs were nice. The desk clerk during check out was able to explain and tell me how to catch a very inexpensive and quick bus to the Norte bus station for ETN, Primera Plus, etc. The price was unbeatable.

    A lot of noise coming from the streets, but it is to be expected when you stay in a big city like Mexico city. Bring earplugs.

    Good location, friendly staff that spoke English well, clean room.

    Noise from street at night but not much can be done about that. It is what it is.

    Helpful staff, beautiful old, very well kept building, location, price, ease of booking and paying, secure, etc. Felt very safe there as a solo, female traveller. Will return.

    I like everything about Hotel Isabel. Things seem to improve with each and every stay I have there. The staff are friendly and very helpful, the rooms are always super clean and there's a doorman .I don't watch TV but I don't recall seeing one in my room. A great value. Everybody knows the wifi is a little wonky, but it can be worked around. My hotel in CDMX

    The location is excellent. It was noisy but I faced a side street and knew this could happy so ear plugs saved the day. Loved how quaint it was - wooden floors, clean bathroom. The bed was not stellar but hey.....

    Was there 7 nights and 3 nights were nightmarish from noise from nearby drinking hole...Also hotel advertise free promo walking tour conditionnal to the purchase of any tour...I bought 2 tours but was denied this promotion under the excuse that the free W Tour had to have been requested at time of booking the tours. I do not think it was very complicated if they had overlooked that restriction since they had record of my previous days tours...

    Hot Water , Bedding , Cleanliness , Hygiene policy , Tour Desk on site , Location , decent and unexpensive food service, Location from main site of interest , very decent budget travel overall experience

    I must learn more Spanish as the Menu in the Restaurants were a QR code Only so they had free Yi Fi and by the time you got to see the menu and communicate to the Waitress didn’t understand English so your Phone screen was covered in fingerprints ,

    The location was in the Historic Centro of Mexico City. Easy to walk to many Historic Sights. There were many pedestrian Only streets with Restaurants & ice Cream stands. Would love to Return there again!
