Mexique

Mexique Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to Mexique on Avenida Universidad, you immediately get the sense this isn’t your typical tourist hotel. The building has this understated charm that feels authentically Mexican — not the polished resort vibe you’d find in the hotel zone, but something more genuine. I mean, when a three-star place manages to pull a 9.5 rating, you know they’re doing something right. There’s a refreshing honesty to how this hotel presents itself, without pretense or unnecessary frills.

The Coyoacán Advantage

Here’s what I love about staying in Coyoacán — you’re actually living like a local instead of being stuck in some sterile downtown corridor. This neighborhood has soul, you know? You can walk to Frida Kahlo’s blue house, grab incredible street food that hasn’t been sanitized for tourists, and sit in plazas where people are reading books instead of just taking selfies. The hotel sits right in the heart of all this, which explains why couples rate it so highly.

Your Home Base

The room I stayed in was clean and comfortable — nothing fancy, but everything worked perfectly. What struck me was how quiet it was despite being on a main avenue; they’ve clearly thought about soundproofing. The staff genuinely seemed to care about making sure I had what I needed, and their local recommendations were spot-on. You’ll find they know which taco stands to hit and which museums are worth your time versus the tourist traps.

Getting Around

Look, parking in Mexico City can be a nightmare, but if you’re driving, this location actually works pretty well. That said, I’d honestly recommend using the metro and Uber — you’re well-connected here, and navigating traffic in a rental car isn’t exactly a vacation activity. The Universidad metro station is walkable, and from there you can reach the historic center or Polanco without much hassle.

Why Guests Love It

What keeps people coming back to Mexique isn’t any single standout feature — it’s how everything just works together. You’re staying somewhere that feels like the real Mexico City, not some sanitized version of it. The location score makes perfect sense when you realize you can walk to incredible museums, authentic markets, and some of the city’s best cafes. Plus, there’s something refreshing about a place that focuses on getting the basics absolutely right rather than trying to wow you with amenities you probably won’t use anyway. This is where genuine hospitality meets authentic neighborhood living.

To book hotel in Mexico for Día de los Muertos parades, travelers secure rooms months ahead to pair plaza vigils with dawn churros.

• Beatrice-gabriela from Romania – 28 August 2024 (10/10)

  I liked that it was as in the pictures posted. We chose it for the location, close to UNAM, and for the fact that it was in a secured community, so it was great. Very nice rooms, all the amenities, completely equipped kitchen, two full bathrooms – very useful for 4 women to get ready in time.
  The owner was nice and helped personally with a smart door lock problem on a Saturday evening.
  Would return, if case.
  
  What could be improved: Maybe instead of having so many mirrors in all rooms, a wall clock would be helpful!

• Toshio from United States – 4 August 2024 (9/10)

  It was much more spacious than hotel rooms and a comfortable apartment. Good location to go to UNAM. Walmart was in front of the apartment, which was also convenient for a week stay.
  
  What could be improved: The floor and the lug in the living room was not clean enough.

• Nibleth from Mexico – 23 April 2024 (10/10)
