Hotel Mexico

Mexicali is one of the most interesting places in Mexico; not only because of the annual bullfighting held in its busy downtown area but also because it is one of the most modern and culturally diverse spots in the world. Resting next to the Mexico-American border and near the international borders, the city-municipality of Mexicali is open to the influx of many cultural influences, ranging from those of its geographical neighbor the United States of America (Mexicali is practically connected to Calexico, America's Mexicali) to those from Asia. This clash and mixing of social peculiarities make Mexicali a very lively place, attractive not only to weekend vacationers, but to businessmen as well. It is therefore not surprising that hotels such as Hotel Mexico have been built to give visitors a place to stay in the midst of experiencing this city-municipality.

Hotel Mexico is located in 476 Lerdo Avenue in what is referred to as the Central Zone of Mexicali, Baja California Mexico. Lerdo Avenue, despite being one of the smaller main roads of the city-municipality, has the advantage of being connected to not only the major road Lopez Mateos Boulevard, but also to its neighboring parallel streets – Reforma Avenue and Zaragoza Avenue. What this means is that guests of the Hotel Mexico have convenient access to the beautiful museum, the bibliophile's dream of a library and the city church (in Reforma Avenue) as well as the medical facilities (in Zaragoza Avenue). Lerdo Avenue itself allows visitors staying in the Hotel Mexico to be within a very short walking and driving distance of a shopping mall and the police station.

The Hotel Mexico's proximity to Lopez Mateos Boulevard means that its guests can very easily go to the more modern amusements in Mexicali. The most popular examples of places travelers staying in Hotel Mexico can visit are the bowling alley, the Teatro del Stado (the State Theater in English), the Centro Interactivo Sol del Niño (Sol del Niño/Son of the Sun Interactive Center in English), and Calafia Plaza downtown. In Calafia Plaza, guests of the Hotel Mexico can peruse in shops and dine at the restaurants and cafés in the day, and indulge in the nightlife bars and clubs in the evening. At certain times of the year, the already impressive bullfighting arena comes to life and creates an almost-overwhelming spectacle. Lopez Mateos Boulevard also takes people staying in the Hotel Mexico to the train station, where they can further explore what the city-municipality has to offer.

The Hotel Mexico is a one-star hotel with a yet-undetermined number of rooms for accommodations. Each room is equipped with airconditioning and a color television, with the option for heating. Other amenities offered by the hotel include a bar service (drinks can be served at your room as well), services for fax sending, and ample parking spaces.

The rates of the rooms in the Hotel Mexico are unlisted; it is therefore better to consult a travel agent or call the hotel at 011-52 (686) 554-0669 for making arrangements.
