Casa de la Luz Hotel Boutique

Nestled in the heart of the Historic Zone, the property is easy walking to many sites around the Zocalo, yet thanks to sound proof windows, the room remained quiet. The staff were cheerful and helpful, and the breakfast cafe on site was amazing.

Casa de la Luz lived up to all the expectations I had and beyond. I chose this hotel for its excellent location (close to the center of town and easy access to the metro), it's historic charm and the regular high ratings from other travelers. Each of these made it the perfect hotel for me. First, location meant I didn't need to use taxis or public transport much to get to the locations I really wanted to visit--they were all just a short walk away. The building originally formed a part of a hospital built in the 16th century, so it was really amazing to stay there. The rooms themselves were huge with massively high ceilings. The bathrooms were spacious and modern. All in all, quite comfortable. The other reviews I read about the hotel were spot on. The staff were so helpful and really pleasant and helpful at all times. The breakfast was regularly delicious and filling. In short, I loved it.

I guess there are some bad points to every hotel, and sure there are a few here. None that would make me question my decision to stay. First it is on a well travelled road in historic Mexico City and right across from a popular public square. As such, it could be loud in the evenings although it was quiet during the wee hours of the night. The neighboring establishments could also contribute some noises. All that considered, it was not a problem at all, really.

The historic building is amazing and the hotel actually is boutique. It has a few rooms spread over three floors. We opted for one of the largest rooms. Bed linens were perfect as were the pillows. Wonderful restaurant on the top floor. The hotel environment makes for a relaxing respite from on otherwise at times chaotic city. Location can’t be beat.

The square directly across was a little disturbing upon arrival. Apparently it is one of a few legal locations around the city where marijuana use is allowed outside in public. We stayed four nights. It was a non-issue. The square was almost completely empty by the evening.

El hotel es muy bonito y está bien ubicado en el centro. Las habitaciones son muy amplias y cómodas. El desayuno es muy bueno aunque la carta es de comida típica mexicana, te tiene que gustar.

Es la primera vez en mi vida que antes de irme del hotel me dicen que tengo que esperar a que revise una persona que hemos dejado la habitación en buen estado. Me dijeron que era protocolo del hotel pero jamás había escuchado algo así. Las toallas tenían muy mala calidad.

Sehr bequemes, geräumiges und hübsch eingerichtetes Zimmer mit kleinem Balkon und Blick auf einen Platz. Sehr bequemes Bett. Schallisolierte Fenster, dadurch dringt der Lärm vom Platz kaum durch.

Nach innen zum Treppenhaus recht hellhörig. Frühstück könnte etwas umfangreicher sein. Zimmerpreis recht überteuert.

We stayed for one week with friends in this hotel and it was a great experience. The room and the bathroom were very clean. We had a small balcony towards a plaza , which was active especially in the evening, but with the soundproofed doors , we had not problem at all. The entire staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Especially Antonio , who was a waiter in the rooftop restaurant as well as in the breakfast area , was a delight. The food was extraordinary - soooo good ! Great breakfast with many options. The restaurant had THE BEST steak and pina coladas :) The location in the old historic part of Mexico City was perfect for reaching a lot of places by foot or by calling Uber . We definitely would stay again in Casa De La Luz when coming back to Mexico City,

There was nothing we didn’t like. Everything was fine .

Everything including the restaurant!

Great service. Fantastic breakfast. Restaurant on-site is top notch.

Marijuana encampment in the square in front of the hotel was bothersome.
