5 Best Hotels in Condesa, Mexico City

Set in a charmingly restored, art-filled 1930s compound just off delightful Avenida Amsterdam and steps from a slew of great bars and restaurants, this easygoing, quiet inn offers a range of accommodations, from simple, wallet-friendly garden units to fanciful suites and two-bedroom apartments with full kitchens and terraces. Rates include a hearty breakfast, which you can enjoy in the skylighted dining room or on the terrace. 

This inviting, reasonably priced hotel on the edge of increasingly trendy San Miguel Chapultepec and adjacent to Bosque de Chapultepec conveys an old-world sensibility with its floor-to-ceiling curtains, British antiques, and large marble-accented bathrooms, some with steam showers and Jacuzzi tubs. Some rooms have balconies overlooking the park. The elegant restaurant features live piano and serves fine Continental cuisine.

Part of the hip Austin, Texas–based Bunkhouse Hotel group, this casually chic boutique hotel set inside a 1940s apartment building is just a few steps from both Parque México and Avenida Amsterdam, and offers light-filled rooms with Bluetooth speakers, mini-refrigerators stocked with premium snacks for purchase, and a handful of suites with terraces. The complimentary breakfast is served on the hotel's lovely rooftop terrace, which is a nice spot to hang out any time of day, and there's a cute lounge on the ground floor serving coffee and cocktails, plus an assortment of tasty tapas, from shrimp ceviche to watermelon-feta salads. 

Part of a growing Mexican chain of mid-range hotels, this eight-story property is technically in Tacubaya, just south of Condesa, but it's an easy walk from the neighborhood's wealth of trendy restaurants and shops, making it a great affordable base. Although the rooms are all furnished similarly, they are large and have fully equipped kitchens, which explains why many families and guests planning longer visits choose to stay here. There's a decent on-site restaurant and bar, plus parking (somewhat rare in Condesa) for an extra charge.

This laid-back but sophisticated boutique hotel on a slightly busy street corner features 16 rooms that have been designed with locally crafted products. A very tasty breakfast is served on the fifth-floor terrace, and there's a wonderful wine bar, NIV, on the ground floor.
