3-star hotels in Mexico City
Fifteen 3-star hotels in Mexico City, from the Reforma and Cuauhtémoc blocks to Anzures and the Periférico Sur. It is for travellers who want a known name or a modest independent base, with gym, Wi-Fi and breakfast as the deciding factors rather than luxury.
Staying in Mexico City
Mexico City sits at 2,240 metres, so the first day is better kept light and hydrated. Rain is a fixture from June to September, usually arriving as a two-hour afternoon burst, which leaves mornings free; traffic belongs in every plan, and taxis at night are best ordered through an app rather than hailed on the street. Most of these hotels cluster in the centre-west. Others face Chapultepec along Avenida Chapultepec or Avenida Revolución, or stand in Anzures, Polanco and the southern Periférico. The spread suits couples on a short break and business travellers who want a fitness centre and a business centre; families are served by the rooms and babysitting at Del Principado and Casa Blanca, and by the kitchenettes in the City Express Suites.

Where to stay in Mexico City
Colonia Juárez
Hotel Del Principado names the Zona Rosa itself on Londres. It is a central, walkable base for a short break, with Hotel Century Reforma, Hotel Premier and Mc Suites close enough that the choice comes down to facilities rather than location.
Our picks here: Hotel Premier
Anzures
City Express Suites by Marriott Ciudad de México Anzures takes its name and address from Colonia Anzures, Leibnitz 120, north of Chapultepec park. It is the pick for a longer, quieter stay with a kitchen, and Polanco's Hilton Garden Inn on Leon Tolstoi is the nearest of the others.

Plan your stay
Getting there and around
The site's guidance is practical rather than route-specific: order taxis through an app at night instead of hailing them, and build traffic into every plan you make. No airport transfer times, fares or transport lines are given here, so confirm those before you travel. With a hotel in Colonia Juárez or by the Alameda, the historic centre is the natural first walk once you have settled in; guests further west, in Anzures or Polanco, should simply allow for the traffic the city is known for whenever they set out.
When to go
June to September brings rain on most afternoons, usually as a two-hour burst, so mornings are generally fine and the wet hours are predictable. Outside that window the site gives no further guidance. Whenever you go, remember the altitude of 2,240 metres: drink water and keep day one light before filling the schedule.

Questions, answered
Is the altitude in Mexico City a problem?
It sits at 2,240 metres, which is real and noticeable. Drink water and keep your first day light; the hotels in Colonia Juárez and around the Alameda are central enough that you can ease in without long excursions.
When does it rain in Mexico City?
From June to September, rain falls most afternoons, typically a two-hour burst while mornings stay fine. Plan indoor time or a rest at the hotel for the afternoon and keep the first half of the day for going out.
Are these hotels good for families?
Hotel Del Principado and Hotel Casa Blanca list family rooms and babysitting service, and Casa Blanca also has a garden and games room. City Express Suites Anzures offers family rooms with a kitchen and microwave.
Which hotels have a gym?
Hotel Century Reforma and City Express Alameda both list a gymnasium and fitness centre. Hotel Casa Blanca, Holiday Inn Trade Center and City Express EBC Reforma also list a fitness centre for guests who want to train.
Can I stay in a hotel with a kitchen?
Yes. Mc Suites Mexico City has a kitchenette and kitchen with microwave; City Express Suites Anzures adds a refrigerator; City Express EBC Reforma lists a kitchen. These suit longer stays where self-catering makes a difference.
Where can I park a car?
Free car parking and a garage are listed at Hotel Del Principado, Hotel Casa Blanca, Holiday Inn Trade Center and Hotel Metropol. Hotel Corinto and Hotel Pedregal Palace also offer free parking without a garage.
How should I get around at night?
The site's advice is to order taxis through an app at night rather than hailing them on the street, and to build traffic into every plan. That applies wherever you stay, from Colonia Juárez to the Periférico Sur.
Are pets allowed in any of these hotels?
Two do accept them: City Express EBC Reforma on Havre and City Express Suites Anzures on Leibnitz both list pets allowed. None of the other hotels in this shortlist states a pet policy.
