Writers pick : The 3 Best places to stay if you are looking for something different and a real feel of up-scale Mexico City:


W Hotel Mexico City, Campos Eliseos 252, Polanco, Mexico City 11560.
The W Hotel displays its signature sexiness in Mexico city, with sleek designs, cherry red walls in the rooms and traditional all white beds. Great for young professionals but families and mature customers may not appreciate the thumping music that accompanies
them throughout the hotel at night from the hotels very popular Whiskey Bar, formally known as the W Bar which attracts some of Mexico Cities best dressed who love to hang out on the white sofas and sip martinis all night long.
This hotel is great. I love everything about it and i am a regular at the
bar which receives great reviews from people here staying or on business in the city. The hotel attracts a trendy set of the well to do and is located in Polanco very close to the Hard Rock Cafe.
W Hotel Mexico has a reputation for efficient and considerate service and everyone seems to love the huge reception hall. W hotel is located close to many restuarants and bars but the hotel food is highly rated and so are the bar snack on offer.

HABITA, Av. Presidente Masaryk 201 ,Colonia. Polanco C.P. 11560

Habita is Mexico City's spin on a modern design hotel.The 5 start luxury Boutique hotel is situated in the Polanco district close to all amenities. The converted 1950's building has gained a new identity, bringing in light and space by adding a "wrapper" of frosted glass. The adventurous design encapsulates the hotel in a floating glass box suspended from the original facade. From the top of the box, take in the spectacular city views, or relax in the rooftop bar and pool while mingling with locals and visitors alike.
Habita's culinary offer from chef Enrique Olvera takes the theme of the LOBBY restaurant. Located on the ground floor – partially open to the elements – LOBBY presents a Mexican Bistro cuisine in a casual environment that you'll only find in Mexico City.
The hotel has 32 rooms and 4 suites in total and the Roof top bar is not to be missed. Locals and visitors alike come to Habitas bar and overlook the city as videos and artworks are projected from the hotel onto a nearby wall which is really great to sit and watch as you sip your cocktails. Habita was one of the leaders changing the mexico city hotel scene and oening up the idea of modern boutique living and is one the bar with live DJ is a favourite with my friends. You wont be displeased with the hotel.
Prices range from US $195-265 per night for a double to US $365 for a junior suite.
