Hostal Regina Down Town Mexico City, hotel in Mexico City

Free Wi-Fi and a 24-hour reception are offered at the youth Hostel. It is located 650 meters from Mexico City Cathedral and Zócalo Square.

Usually I associate a hostel with dorms. Meanwhile, the junior suite option allowed for great comfort in the heart of Mexico City. Luggage storage on the day of departure (free of charge) allowed for a comfortable day. Everything was great - I recommend it! PS: Extra nice staff!

Location is super central. By the way, there is no AC but I have to say temperature was pleasant so I did not really need it.

    The hostel is amazingly clean, it looks great and I felt at home there. The kitchen is perfect to cook, and the space with the tables / sofa is perfect to both work, have its own space, or meet new people. So far this was the best hostel I’ve been to, a perfect balance between comfort, socialize and keep its safe zone. Will definitely come back ☀️

    It’s the best hostel I’ve ever stayed in. They do a lot to create a guest community. If I come back to Mexico City, I will choose this hostel over any hotel. You have your privacy thanks to the bed that you can close, the area is safe. The best part is the style of the hotel, it’s very beautifully decorated

    I stayed in the 8(?) person dorm room. Excellent beds!! They’re in boxes with plenty of space inside for big backpacks too. Cute design too. Each bed has a lockable sliding door and a safe inside, sockets including usb, even internal shelving and a space to hang some shirts! There are also different light settings inside your box. It was a very nice little nook to get some R&R. The bathrooms were awesome too - best hostel bathrooms I think I’ve seen. Everything clean, hot water, good pressure, hair dryers too.

    I can honestly say this was the best hostel I‘ver ever stayed at. Price is low, return is high. I enjoyed the box beds that come with a safe and some extra space to keep your luggage. The common areas are great to get in touch with other travellers, the WhatsApp group is a nice touch as well. Overall 10/10

    The rooftop of the hostel is a charm! You can have a great view of the Mexico City and also do workout there. Also they provide a place for you to handwash and hang your clothes, which is a huge bonus point for long term budget travellers! There is locker in the room. Everything is very safe. The location is very accessible by bus and everything is nearby. They have free coffee in the morning. Nice to have a cup of coffee after your morning workout.
