13 Best Hotels in Roma, Mexico City

This somewhat unassuming art deco--style town house beside famed Panadería Rosetta is considered one of the neighborhood's lodging gems, thanks to its chic yet unfussy modern design, abundance of peaceful common terraces (including a gorgeous roof deck), and desirable location. Rooms are done in earthy tones and have sleek tiled bathrooms, soft bedding, and art, fabrics, and many accessories created by Mexican artisans. On the ground floor, restaurant Sesame serves tasty Pan-Asian food, and there are dozens of stellar restaurants just steps away. Many rooms have large balconies, and three of them are accessed via a dramatic yellow three-story spiral staircase.

Designed by one of the country's leading architects, this pale-green contemporary boutique hotel with a mid-century-modern vibe features spacious rooms with fully equipped kitchens, large balconies with tables and comfy chairs, organic Yucateco bath products, and a stunning collection of contemporary art. Located on the less swanky end of famously trendy Calle Colima, the hotel is a short walk from dozens of noteworthy restaurants. It's one of only a handful of Roma lodgings that welcome pets. 

One of the most alluring of the several posh, intimate B&Bs that occupy stately Porfirian-era mansions in Roma, this 1913 house has been enlarged with a dramatic glass-and-metal contemporary addition that encircles a peaceful courtyard with a living wall, cactus garden, and fountain that functions as social focal point—and is also just a wonderfully relaxing place to read or relax. The softy lit, casually chic rooms have sumptuous beds and bathrooms, and rates include an artfully presented breakfast as well as an evening cocktail hour.

This cozy, reasonably priced B&B located down a private alley has seven simple but inviting rooms with white color schemes that contrast with brightly colored Mexican-made pillows, crafts, and decorative accents, along with charming common spaces that include an indoor patio, a sunny terrace, and a dining area with a full kitchen. Thoughtful touches abound, including organic and locally made bath products; the use of bikes, umbrellas, and reusable market bags for shopping; free calls throughout North America and Europe; and safe luggage storage if you're arriving before check-in or departing after check-out. In addition to outstanding full breakfast, the inn serves freshly baked cookies and agua frescas in the afternoon. This is also the very rare B&B that welcome pets. 

This smartly designed boutique inn is filled with thoughtful touches and whimsical creative flourishes, including colorful contemporary paintings and murals by up-and-coming artists, co-working and yoga rooms, and complimentary coffee, Mexican candies, and even mezcal shots.

For an ultraromantic urban getaway, it's hard to beat staying at this intimate Spanish Colonial mansion on one of the city's most enchanting streets—the knowledgeable and efficient staff pampers guests at every turn, with everything from nightly aromatherapy turn-down service to massage and reiki sessions in a serene spa cabin. The lavishly appointed rooms are abound with cushy touches, including Mexican-made Persea Apothecary bath products, a minibar with wine and gourmet treats, carefully curated art, and gracious balconies.

An opulent English manor-style mansion from the early 20th century has been transformed into arguably Roma's most exclusive lodging, an intimate urban resort with first-class amenities and rooms outfitted with sumptuous touches like premium sound systems, Mexico-made Persea Apothecary bath products, and in-room climate control. Most accommodations have expansive private balconies, and the Signature Suite has a marble gas fireplace. The hotel's Hela Spa, while not large, does offer a full slate of massage and body services, and the trendy restaurant, Cerrajería, serves gorgeously plated contemporary international fare; there's also a landscaped terrace café serving lighter bites and a cozy speakeasy. Although breakfast isn't included in the rates, the hotel often offers packages that include this.

Within this refined early 20th-century mansion, graciously appointed rooms with tastefully neutral color schemes, plush linens, and original architectural details appeal to a discerning crowd who wish to be close to Roma's fantastic restaurants but in a quieter section that's slightly removed from the neighborhood's sometimes frenetic nightlife. Imagine you're staying at your wealthy and welcoming aunt's house, and for a splurge, treat yourself to the roomy master suite, with its separate living room and a balcony overlooking the street. Note that only a couple of rooms fall within the moderate price category; most are considerably more expensive.

This six-story boutique hotel on the side of Roma Norte closer to Bosque de Chapultepec and Avenida Reforma offers uncluttered contemporary rooms with smart TVs, fast Wi-Fi, and stand-alone rain head showers, but instead of a conventional front desk, guests communicate with the highly efficient staff through text messages or phone calls. It's a set-up that's more akin to an Airbnb and may not be for everyone, but the reasonable rates, great location, and well-designed rooms have earned the hotel a very positive following. Barbero restaurant, on the ground floor, is a nice option for a glass of wine or a full dinner while the rooftop eatery Cafe de Mayo serves tasty breakfast and brunch fare (it's not open at night). 

Although this seven-story property---it's one of the largest in the neighborhood---isn't particular trendy, it does have warmly appointed contemporary rooms with floor-to-ceiling windows, attractive white-tile showers, and ultra-comfy beds. There's a full-service restaurant and rooftop bar, and it's the rare Roma hotel with free parking. Rooms facing the street have Juliette balconies and let in more light (but also some street noise on the lower floors). 

With no sign out front and a location on a quiet street a block from Roma's border with Condesa, this inviting oasis anchored by a restored two-story Porfirian mansion stands out for its lovely staff, delicious food, and tasteful balance between old-world elegance and modern convenience. Rooms in the main house retain their 20th-century architectural details, including high ceilings, but also feature wide-screen mounted TVs, individual climate control, and L'Occitane bath products; the larger suites, which are in a newer wing, have an even more contemporary feel. The filling full breakfast is included, but other meals are available for a charge.

An anomaly in fashionable Roma, this seven-story budget hotel built in the early 1970s won't win any prizes for its design, but with spacious if nondescript rooms, a friendly staff, and close proximity to the neighborhood's trendy restaurants and shops, it's a solid pick if you're looking to save money. The buffet breakfast costs extra but is pretty good. Try to get a room overlooking leafy Jardín Pushkin.
