Casa Comtesse

Top choice in Condesa


Run by an amiable French owner, this 1940s historic building houses eight rooms adorned with tasteful art and furnishings and a parquet-floored dining area where guests mingle over exceptionally good breakfasts that include quality pastries and fruit. Staff go out of their way to look after guests, helping plan an itinerary or affordable tours to the Teotihuacán ruins, or organizing mezcal tastings in the small bar.

The Casa also has a graphic-arts gallery with interesting works by Mexican artists.
