What to see in Mexico City

Thanks to their central locations, you can easily see the best of the city from our downtown Mexico City hotels. Start in the Centro Histórico with the Plaza de la Constitución, known as Zócalo, which is the city’s main square. Here you’ll find the Gothic Mexico City Metropolitan Cathedral, the largest in Mexico, while museum buffs will be perfectly located for delving into the city’s culture. Try the Museo de Templo Mayor Aztec Museum or the Museo Tutankamón Egyptian Museum to travel back in time, or for art, the Former College of San Ildefonso.
From here, you’ll also be near one of the city’s most iconic sights: the stunning Palacio de las Bellas Artes. This Art Nouveau concert hall is an impressive place to attend a performance, admire the murals, or appreciate the breathtaking architecture.
