The original property opened in 1526. A member of Historic Hotels Worldwide since 2023.

Nestled only steps from Plaza de la Constitución, or the zócalo, the cultural and historical heart of Mexico City, Gran Hotel Ciudad de México has been an iconic city-center landmark for almost five centuries. Formerly the residence of Rodrigo de Albornoz, the Royal Accountant, Gran Hotel Ciudad de México dates back to 1526. In 1895, it then transitioned into a new life as El Centro Mercantil, Mexico’s first shopping center and the most important department store in Latin America during that time.
As breathtakingly beautiful as it is storied, the pièce de résistance of this Art Deco hotel is its jaw-dropping Tiffany-style stained-glass ceiling, one of the four largest in of its kind in the world. Along with Gran Hotel Ciudad de México’s eye-catching and convenient setting, guests can also enjoy two onsite dining venues, one of which boasts panoramic views of the Zócalo, and one of its 59 simply yet elegantly decorated guestrooms or suites.
