Distrito Capital

Hip 1960s-influenced boutique property

Towering over the Santa Fe business district is Distrito Capital, an exceptionally modernistic 30-room boutique. Polished concrete and sheer white painted walls framed by minimalist furnishings set the scene here – the work of Parisian designer Joseph Dirand. The rooms, situated on floors 25 through 28, afford panoramic views through tall windows. Outside by the 13m open-air infinity pool, the bar and terrace serve as one of the Santa Fe’s places to be seen, while the restaurant, lower down the building on the fifth floor, dishes Mexican specialities from breakfast to late into the night.
