"In chi-chi Condesa, fashion designer Roberta Maceda has crafted a seven-room retreat that is a minimalist extension of her Octavia clothing line. On the ground floor, there’s a shoppable bronze rack of Maceda’s pieces, like crisp white button-up shirts. Upstairs, suites are dressed in neutral palettes, and named after things in the natural world, from walnut (nogal) and linen (lino) to earth (tierra) and bronze (bronce). The softest cotton-satin bedding comes, of course, from Octavia’s homeware line, while the rest of the studied interiors showcase other Mexican designers. There’s no restaurant, but breakfast is brought in from the local bakery, with sweet Mexican pastries such as conchas served with homemade hibiscus-and-ginger jam. In the evenings, it’s a short stroll to city favorites including Italian restaurant Lardo and natural wine bar Caiman." - Susannah Rigg

"From the founder of the local women’s wear label Octavia Casa comes a sleek minimalist seven-room retreat in La Condesa. Even the outside of the building, which has a wooden lattice facade and leafy plants that add life and color to the natural corners, has a calming feel. Inside, neutral, light-filled rooms and large white beds promote a sense of tranquility; all ceramics, glass, and linens are sourced from local brands like Onora, Encrudo, and Entei. While the hotel is firmly rooted in Mexican design, from certain angles you could almost mistake it for a ryokan in Japan." - Mary Holland, Sandra Ramani
