The Alest
In the heart of fashionable Polanco, this unique boutique hotel brings a touch of British flair to Mexico City’s lively energy. With just 19 stylish rooms — nine offering lovely views of leafy Eugenio Sue Street — the spaces feel intimate yet sophisticated, with curated Mexican art and luxe marble finishes in each. Don’t miss dining at the hotel’s on-site restaurant, 45, where chef Emmanuel Gomez Avila whips up contemporary Mexican dishes with a European twist. Plus, you can explore the neighbourhood on complimentary bikes with rattan baskets or head to nearby Lincoln Park for some fun, joining locals in pond racing using the hotel’s stash of remote-controlled model boats.
