Las Alcobas, Mexico City

Morning spills across jacaranda-lined Polanco as the first cafés lift their shutters and the street smells faintly of espresso and pan dulce. 

Inside Las Alcobas, a 35-key boutique hideaway in Mexico City, sculpted wood, soft leather, and handwoven rugs hush the city’s hum.

It’s intimate, design-led, and quietly glamorous—your private apartment above the best shopping and dining boulevard in town.

What Makes It Special

• Boutique scale (35 rooms) with residential calm and intuitive, high-touch service
• Design pedigree—artisan woods, tactile textiles, thoughtful lighting, spa-like marble baths
• Polanco address—steps to galleries, parks, and the city’s headline restaurants
• Wellness touches—deep soaking tubs, aromatherapy amenities, in-room treat trolley
• Chef-driven dining and elegant breakfast ritual with seasonal fruit and warm pastries

A Day at Las Alcobas

Morning

Wake to sunshine on leafy Masaryk. A tray arrives: ripe papaya with lime, conchas still warm, and small-batch coffee. The rain shower steams; the city below begins its graceful bustle.

Afternoon

Stroll to nearby galleries and the anthropology quarter, then to lunch—blue-corn tortillas, charred octopus, and a squeeze of lime. Return for a siesta; the room’s handmade headboard and whisper-quiet blackout shades turn minutes into an hour.

Evening

Golden light filters through trees along Lincoln Park. Dress for dinner—mezcal martini first, then a chef’s menu that leans bright and herbaceous.

Night

Back in your suite, sink into the soaking tub perfumed with eucalyptus. Outside, the city glows; inside, it’s all cedar, cotton, and calm.
