We were there around end of December and New Year time. There were lots of festivities going on all the time at Zócalo. The suite where we stayed was very close to alll the activities. The suite in which we stayed (La Princessa) was a great place to stay and had all the modern conveniences eventhough it was a historic place.
The place, Casa Sauto, had a lot of history and was exceptionally updated, maintaining authenticity of the place.
Overall, it was centrally located and a great place to stay.
