Hotels in Mexico City: 10 Authentic Alternatives to Stay Like a Local
If you’re looking for a home-base to enjoy Mexico City, hotels are at the cold end of the spectrum. Granted, some hotels offer great experiences, but they often feel bureaucratic, unpersonalized and repetitive. Plus, they’re often located in the more touristy spots, with no real insight into the real, local city.
Mexico’s capital city is one of those destinations that keeps on giving. The city is filled with friendly people, art galleries, world-class museums, and plenty of mouthwatering eats. But as its popularity grows, finding authentic experiences becomes more challenging.
Why pick a boutique lodging?
Above all, travelers today value flexibility, modernity, and comfort. That’s where Casai comes in.
We offer boutique vacation rentals that are locally inspired, fully equipped and serviced in the best neighborhoods of Mexico City. In short, you’ll get to explore the city like a local whilst enjoying thoughtful design, assistance, and amenities.
Design-wise, unlike hotels in Mexico City, boutique alternatives are often inspired by the neighborhoods in which they’re located, and some even feature unique pieces made by local artists. The aesthetic is one of their main appeals – especially for lifestyle travelers looking for a spot that’s both comfortable and inspiring.
Lastly, in the post-pandemic travel era we prioritize privacy, safety, and social distancing. Because of this, there’s a growing trend in boutique apartment rentals, which offer the comfort and convenience of old-time hotels in private, thoughtful stays.
So, what are you waiting for? Check out our top 10 authentic apartment rentals across town.
