Las Alcobas
Stylish slumber at the heart of the city




Situated in the fashionable district of Polanco, the 35-key Las Alcobas cossets with plush Yabu Pushelberg-designed rooms, infusing a sense of warmth through natural textures and earthy tones. Penthouse suites feature wraparound terraces overlooking the thriving Avenida Presidente Masaryk, but the pumping location belies this boutique’s calm heart. Shirking flamboyance for comfort and modern Mexican hospitality, the hotel’s two restaurants are a further draw, preparing farm-to-table delights and festive Mexican specialities. The on-site spa also demands a look in.
