And don’t forget the food, shopping and street art. Check into one of these stylish vacation rentals to start making memories in mind-boggling Mexico City.

Homely conveniences and hotel-like amenities make this boutique vacation apartment in Mexico City comfortable yet luxurious. In-suite minibars are convenient for mixing evening cocktails, perfect for sipping on the rooftop terrace. Share park views with your friends in the three-bedroom units or savor city views with your pooch in the pet-friendly studio suite. The fitness center on-site is convenient, but there’s no substitute for a brisk walk in nearby Mexico Park or a long stroll down the grand avenue of Paseo de la Reforma.

Concierge services, as well as luggage storage for overpackers, are great bonus perks. A 10-minute walk will take you to Chapultepec Park; a stroll in the opposite direction will send you to the city’s historic center where tacos al pastor (tasoc with spit-cooked pork) and tlayudas (corn tortillas covered with refried beans and other toppings) are aplenty.

Touches such as a pink upholstered headboard, coffee-table tomes and brass sconces imbue this Polanco one-bedroom pad for two with plenty of character. There’s a sleek glass desk for catching up on emails, though you’ll struggle not to get distracted by the views from the floor-to-ceiling windows or the Netflix-ready TV. The Soumaya Museum, home to Mexican billionaire Carlos Slim’s incredible art collection – Picassos, Renoirs, Van Goghs and many more – is only a few steps away.

7. The Local Way, Roma, Vintage Highlights

Once owned by a talented local photographer, this artfully arranged two-bedroom vacation rental in Mexico City’s upscale Roma district is sure to bring out the budding artist in you and your travel companions. The building itself is beautiful – the blue colonial edifice hides a peaceful inner courtyard. And, if you’re inspired by your home-away-from-home’s vintage treasures, you can hunt for your own in the exclusive boutiques or seek inspiration from the street art in this hipster enclave – but hurry home for sunset cocktails on your private rooftop garden.

Each double bedroom has crisp Ralph Lauren sheets, a pillow-top mattress and a marble-clad bathroom with a rainfall shower. If that’s not enough to satisfy your lust for luxury, then upgrade to a king-size suite for a furnished terrace with umbrellas and greenery. There’s also a Starbucks on hand to provide your morning pick-me-up.
