One of the best Grupo Habita hotels in Mexico City, Distrito Capital in Santa Fe is ideal if you want a break from the Roma-Condesa crowd. Take a tour of the 30 rooms and you’ll appreciate the understated cool of the hotel; the terraces and fifth-floor pool only add to the charm.

7. Hotel Habita
Boutique Hotel, Hotel
A modern accommodation option pioneer in Mexico City, Hotel Habita has an icy exterior – literally. It looks like a giant ice cube, sweltering in the Mexico City heat, and this metaphorical cool also pervades the interior, which has a stylish boutique vibe throughout with modern art pieces. If you’re into minimalist design, the all-white look of this Polanco hotel will be right up your street. And the decadent rooftop pool isn’t bad either.
8. Marquis Reforma Hotel and Spa
Boutique Hotel, Hotel
Indulge in a special stay at the Marquis Reforma Hotel and Spa, one of the top luxury hotels in Mexico City, and ideally located on Paseo de la Reforma – one of the main boulevards in the city. Art deco rooms feature a mix of mahogany touches and marble bathrooms, while you can take your pick of three restaurants. The real attraction here is the Marquis Spa, where you can relax and rejuvenate in 16,000sqft (1,500sqm) of blissful peace.
9. Downtown México
Boutique Hotel, Hotel, Hotel Barge
In the heart of the historic center, and housed in what was once an Aztec palace, is the aptly named Downtown Mexico. It’s perfect if you’re a foodie, not just because you’re in the middle of the culinary hub, but because the building is also home to chef Ricardo Muñoz Zurita’s Azul Histórico. Situated on the ground floor, the restaurant does a gourmet take on Mexican staples. There are also mezcalerías here, chocolate shops and a rooftop bar, so it’s worth a visit even if you aren’t staying.
