“Spectre-famous Zócalo grande dame”

Gran Hotel Ciudad de México is a stunning century-old grande dame on the Zócalo's safe west side — the French stained-glass ceiling and ancient elevator from Spectre make the lobby and stairs endlessly photogenic; spacious quiet rooms have high-end bedding, the rooftop café and restaurant overlook the old city, and breakfast carries Mexican touches. Age shows in dated fittings and viewless rooms, breakfast needs a reservation, service is good when they see you, a faucet blasted hard, and taxis can't reach the pedestrian-zone door.

Service
Good service when staff notice you.
Rooms
Spacious quiet rooms; some are viewless.

A decent Mexican-touch breakfast needs reservation.

The photogenic stained-glass lobby wows everyone.
