An Enjoyable Stay at Casablanca Hotel in Mexico City

Rating: 5/5

I had the pleasure of staying at Casablanca Hotel for one night in late July 2023. The hotel's location, just around the corner from Revolution Square and within a hundred meters of Mexico City's main avenue, Paseo de la Reforma, was perfect for exploring the city's most famous landmarks, including the Revolution Monument, Angel of Independence, Diana the Huntress Fountain, and the Palace of Fine Arts. Public transportation stops for Metrobuses, trolleybuses, and tour buses were conveniently close by. The area also offered several Starbucks cafes, diverse restaurants offering breakfast and business lunches, pharmacies, the large Reforma 222 shopping center, and banks.

1. Check-in and Interior: Upon arrival, I reached the hotel three hours before the official check-in time. The staff informed me that my room would be ready in a couple of hours and kindly offered to store my luggage while I explored the hotel. Despite the delay, my room was still not ready at the official check-in time. However, one of the senior receptionists promptly solved the issue by upgrading me to a higher category room at no extra charge, which I gladly accepted. The room with a king-size bed featured ample workspace, a coffee machine, a sofa, and a TV with numerous channels. The staff was exceptionally friendly, courteous, and accommodating, and their fluency in English made communication effortless. The hotel boasted an aesthetic interior, and the rooms had a fresh and modern look. The rooftop offered an outdoor heated pool with a bar, providing a relaxing atmosphere.

2. Breakfast: Although my rate didn't include breakfast, it was available for a separate fee. The cost was $220 MXN per person, and guests could enjoy buffet-style dining also at any time, with a slightly higher cost of $250 MXN per person.

3. Wi-Fi Connectivity: The hotel's Wi-Fi was outstanding, with a consistent speed of around 100 Mbps, peaking at 170 Mbps. This reliable and high-speed internet connection made Casablanca Hotel an excellent choice for those who require fast internet for work/business or other needs.

Overall, my experience at Casablanca Hotel was delightful. The strategic location, attentive staff, modern amenities, and excellent Wi-Fi made it a memorable stay. I would highly recommend this hotel to fellow travelers, and I look forward to returning on my next visit to Mexico City.
