Las Alcobas

As a world traveler I have rarely found as beautifully appointed hotel with such efficient and friendly service. We found it by searchng for the safest hotels in Mexico City and, luckily, undoubtedly found of the best. Greeted by smartly dressed associates offering the beverarge of the day they whisked our luggage off to our room and were waiting for us when we got there. We had taken our time to admire the somewhat cozy and beautifully appointed lobby with it’s seven story circular staircase that, shot from inside the curve, is a photogrqpher’s dream.
Our room was good sized with a king bed, sofa and comfortable chair. Closet and storage space were adequate. A workspace coungerprovidedroom for our elecgronic gear enough outlets to keep everything charged.
The highlites were the bedside electronic console to control everything in the room including useful and plesant lighting, climate control and window coverings. The Bose home theater system though s little tricky tooperate, was a pleasure.
The adjacent restaurant, serving breakfast and all meals was excellent

NPS = 10!
One of the best hotels I have ever stayed in regarding hospitality and service!
Hands down the place to stay in Mexico City.
You start the night off by having approximately 3 associates bringing up your luggage, bringing you a drink of the day, and another associate explaining the amenities.
This hotel aims to blow people away and it really does capture that.
It is very centrally located around many fine restaurants and stores.
At any given moment, the hotel was willing to drop what they were doing to help out be it help connecting to the Internet or getting my shirts pressed for my business meeting.
Great job, Las Alcobas. Keep up the fantastic work.

I agree with other reviewers who have said this is one of the best hotels they have stayed in. It seems strange to say that about a tiny hotel in Mexico City, but the attention to detail is extraordinary. From the blue-​streaked marble in the bathroom to the zebra-​patterned wood of the perfectly finished closets; from the whimsical collection of free Mexican candies and dried fruits/​nuts to the welcome note with internet code and highest-​quality notecard stationary; from the warm welcome by «butler» Antonio (and the owner!) to the friendly smiles of the doormen; from the ultra modern light and curtain controls to the stunning flower arrangement at the foot of the stairs, this hotel makes you feel pampered and indulged.
The price was equivalent to the cost of a good but not exceptional hotel in the USA (about $ 250 with breakfast included).
When the new branch of this hotel opens in the wine country of Northern California, I hope to stay there too.

Our second stay at Las Alcobas. Terrific small luxurious hotel perfectly located in the heart of Polanco.
Staff extremely attentive and helpful. Truly exceptional service. Everyone spoke both Spanish and English (and some even French).
Additionally, the staff recommended a guide for trips to the pyramids and the Anthropologia who was excellent.
Far and away my favorite hotel in DF! I will continue to return as often as possible.

LOVELY hotel. Great staff. Beautiful room. Comfortable, clean. In fact I walked on the two cleaning ladies in my room and saw one of them brushing the threads on the ends of the carpet to make sure they lay straight.
so, attention to detail.
and this attention was obvious in how they had prepared a welcome card with network pass code, the delicious juice, making life easy by providing lots of free soft drinks in the fridge, etc.
Very good location but a bit un-​interesting location to me. It is in a fancy area where they have all high end shops like Hermes, Gucci, etc. In that sense it is a bit like high end areas in other major cities of the world. Having said this, walking on the side streets can be real pleasant and you can see some good mid rises with good architecture.
I will go back for sure. Thanks Y’all.

Las Alcobas is a fantastic hotel in every way, from its prime Polanquito location to its ridiculously attentive staff to the super strong showers in its rooms.
From the arrival drinks at check in to the unique (and complimentary) snacks in the mini bar to the over the top fabulous Mexican breakfasts (don’t miss the fruit salad), you’ll definitely not go hungry here, even if you never leave the hotel.
Mexico City traffic is a nightmare but parking yourself at Las Alcobas means you can walk to get a well-​crafted cocktail or a marvelous meal and skip the cars all together (which will save you a great deal of stress, trust me)!
When I asked for an iron they pressed my clothes (at no charge) for me. Talk about remarkable!
Las Alcobas is, without a doubt, my top pick for a hotel in Mexico City.

This is absolutely one of my favorite hotels in the world. They just do everything right! It is not an over-​the-​top place, more like a peaceful sanctuary in a bustling, ancient city. The location is spot on, the restaurant is the best restaurant in town, and the managers and staff are super nice and thoughtful. This hotel has totally stuck out in my memory as one of the best hotels I’ve ever stayed in, maybe the best!

I have stayed in a lot of hotels but, weirdly, I think this is my all time favourite (a big claim).
It is tranquil, not huge, has great service and staff, remains typically Mexican and the rooms are so luxurious. An extra bonus is the fact that on certain packages you get a free massage with your room — very important for the weary traveller.
We received a refreshing local drink (with Guava I think) on arrival and our bags were whisked away and taken care of within a blink of an eye, and after a whole day of traveling to get there, these were very welcome.
The rooms are amazing, huge full-​length windows, a ginormous bed and a room control system that included automated lighting, curtains, atmosphere buttons and other things to play round with… so I did, lot, just for the hell of it.
The bath as standard is also a jacuzzi with different coloured lightings options and jet strength. This made up for the fact there was no sauna or pool at the hotel and was a perfect way to help get over the jetlag.
We had lots of the meetings to conduct over the few days we were there and I think it would be good to know that there are 2 rooms you can book on the same floor as the breakfast room. These are light, characterful and the staff keep you topped up with drinks and snacks. There is a small fee for the room, but well worth it if you want to be out of the way and comfortable.
Something that is also well-​worth checking out that I found on the last day is the roof terrace. I’m not sure if it is supposed to be a roof terrace but follow the magnificent spiral staircase to the top and make your way out of the glass doors at the top. Walk onto the roof and take in the view. Be careful though, there are no guardrails or any such security measures to stop you falling into the balcony below. Probably not safe for children, but most sober adults should be fine… probably

My new go to hotel for all my Mexico City visits. I am here often for work so finding this hotel is a pleasure. Everything you want in a hotel. Beautiful design, great rooms, awesome location, amazing service and really great restaurant situation. Absolutely under the radar VIP hotel. I have stayed at a handful of the hotels in Polanco and wouldn’t dream of staying anywhere else now that I have found this lux boutique hotel.

Las Alcobas es un hotel boutique de los más nuevos en la ciudad. Está ubicado en la esquina de Masaryk y Anatole France, el corazón de Polanquito. El hotel tiene dos restaurantes que ambos me parecen deliciosos, el Anatol que utiliza los ingredientes más frescos de la temporada y el Dulce Patria que le da el toque gourmet a la comida urbana mexicana.
El diseño del hotel es de Yabu Pushelberg, una firma internacional que ha desarrollado proyectos como el Four Seasons en Toronto y Tokyo, el Hotel W en Nueva York, el St. Regis en San Francisco, Louis Vuitton en Hong Kong y Tiffany & Co. En Nueva York.
Hay 35 habitaciones en el hotel, algunas de ellas son suites. Tiene todos los servicios que ofrece un hotel de lujo. Adentro del hotel hay un spa, el Aurora Spa, que utiliza plantas de las culturas prehispánicas como el aloe vera, coco, vainilla, agave, maíz y cítricos.
