Several hotels are found along the main road across from Aeropuerto Internacional Benito Juárez Terminal 1, and this airy and smartly designed mid-price member of the popular Courtyard Marriott brand is easily the most appealing, with its spacious and contemporary rooms, unusually efficient and friendly service, and attractive common spaces.
This contemporary tower with plush rooms and myriad amenities—a member of Mexico's largest hotel brand—rises 12 floors above the fashionable Toreo shopping center in Lomas de Sotelo, a short drive northwest of Polanco and Lomas de Chapultepec. On the border between Mexico City and the state of Mexico, it's a good choice if you're seeking an upscale retreat reasonably close to city attractions but a little removed from noise and traffic. Guests with dogs receive a pet bed and water and food bowls to use throughout their stay.
This sleek, circular three-story hotel is set directly above Aeropuerto Internacional Benito Juárez Terminal 2 and is the most convenient lodging if you're flying on Aeroméxico or Delta (which are both based in this terminal), offering well-appointed accommodations with wood floors, premium bedding, and nicely updated bathrooms. Although rooms have large windows, they face an inner courtyard rather than planes taking off and landing. There's a full restaurant and bar serving decent if unmemorable international fare.
With lower rates than most properties in the corporate-centered Santa Fe district, this eight-story hotel is a great deal considering the roomy accommodations, attractive pool and fitness center, and safe and relatively quiet location. Even the one- and two-bedroom suites, with full kitchens, cost only slightly more than standard rooms.
Situated in the stylish Arcos Bosques mixed-use district on the eastern edge of Santa Fe about 6 miles (10 km) from Parque Chapultepec, the only CDMX location of this growing Mexico brand of posh resorts offers plenty of creature comforts, including huge rooms with 65-inch smart TVs (and smaller TVs in the bathrooms), a gorgeous full spa, and an acclaimed restaurant serving rarefied Spanish cuisine.
