Hotel Principal Review
The 3-star Hotel Principal Mexico City is located about a 5-minute drive from the famous Metropolitan Cathedral of Mexico City and features a vending machine and a lift. There is an underground station near this smoke-free hotel, and guests can easily reach Torre Latinoamericana Tower which is 450 metres away.
The Principal Mexico City offers breakfast in the restaurant. Churreria El Moro is ideal for tasting Mexican cuisine and is situated 600 metres from the accommodation.
The accommodation is centrally situated 15 minutes' walk from Plaza Garibaldi and just a short walk down to Interactive Museum of Economics. History fans will enjoy being near the 18th-century House of Tiles Baroque Palace (350 metres) and the 18th-century palace "Chapultepec Castle" (4.5 km).
Visit Fuente, only 1.2 km from this Mexico City hotel, and feel complete harmony with the nature of Mexico. The nearby cultural attractions include the prominent Munal Museum, which is a few minutes' drive from Hotel Principal.
The bathrooms come with a walk-in shower and a separate toilet, along with hair dryers and bath sheets.
For those travelling from afar, Benito Juarez International airport is 10 minutes' drive away.
Business travellers will have access to a business centre provided on site.
