Las Alcobas, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Mexico City

The location in Polanco is ideal for exploring Mexico City. Guests appreciate the spotless cleanliness, friendly staff, delicious breakfast, and stylish, spacious rooms with high-quality amenities.

Truly the best of the best. From the second we walked in til the moment we left we felt like we were being treated like royalty. Everything from being greeted at the front door, to the check-in, to the complimentary breakfast were handled with such absolute class. No notes. I cannot wait to return.

Las Alcobas is what every boutique luxury hotel should aspire to, but few do. My wife and I spent three nights in Mexico City at this lovely hotel in Polanco in late March, and I repeatedly said to myself, I love this hotel. First, the room we had on the third floor was spacious and well laid out. The bathroom was well-designed, and the closet space ample. The espresso machine was replenished each day. The WiFi was excellent. The fitness room — to be sure, not large — was just down the hall. We felt like we had a comfortable oasis in a city we have visited before, but never at a nicer hotel. But it is the service at which Las Alcobas excels. Mexicans are, in our experience, incredibly hospitable, but the staff at Las Alcobas were simply lovely — from the restaurant to the front desk, to the person who opened the door for us. One evening, we had arranged for a couple of friends to join us for a drink. As it turned out, they used this as the gathering point for a large group of friends and family, and suddenly we had about 12 people there for drinks. I worried we were overwhelming the fairly small bar area, but the staff could not have been more accommodating, seemingly delighted that there were people there having fun. I wish that all such small hotels were as nice as Las Alcobas. My wife and I can’t wait to return.
