Centro Histórico
Downtown Mexico is a pioneering luxury boutique in the Centro Histórico — a 17th-century palace converted by Grupo Habita with a celebrated rooftop pool bar, the irreverent Azul Histórico restaurant in a spectacular courtyard, and a mission to demonstrate that Mexico City's historic core can be a genuine luxury destination.
Centro Histórico
Círculo Mexicano is the Centro Histórico's most architecturally daring boutique hotel — a dramatic conversion of a colonial building whose multiple courtyards host restaurants, a pool, a deli, and a rooftop bar that has quickly become one of the city's most beloved gathering places.
Polanco
The Mondrian brings the brand's signature minimal-maximalist design philosophy to Polanco — with interiors by Marcel Wanders, a rooftop pool and bar among the city's most fashionable, and a position steps from Presidente Masaryk's luxury shopping corridor.
Centro Histórico
The Gran Hotel is one of Mexico City's most spectacular buildings — a 1899 Art Nouveau masterpiece of Tiffany stained-glass domes and gilded iron balustrades facing the Zócalo that makes guests feel they are sleeping inside a living monument of Mexican history.
Polanco
Las Alcobas is Mexico City's finest small luxury hotel — an exquisitely designed 35-room property in Polanco that prioritises intimacy, extraordinary Mexican craftsmanship throughout, and the exceptional Anatol restaurant in a way that makes it the preferred choice of discerning independent travellers.
Condesa
The hotel that defined Condesa's transformation into a global boutique destination, Condesa DF is an urban masterpiece — a 1928 triangular Art Deco building by Javier Sanchez with a rooftop terrace of brilliant design and a lobby bar that remains the neighbourhood's most atmospheric gathering place.
