stay

Tucked away on a tree-lined avenue in Mexico City's cool Condesa neighborhood, the new CONDESA df Hotel imaginatively fuses the name and spirit of its environment with designer India Mahdavi's inventive and playful simplicity. Hip without being haughty, Mahdavi's design offers functional originality from rooms to rooftop, incorporating a range of local materials in elements including custom-made furniture and stone tile flooring.

relax

The CONDESA df's ground-floor restaurant exemplifies this ideal, with its indoor/outdoor feel flowing through a series of privacy-optional rooms, ringing a vivid, flora-filled courtyard. The guestrooms, located above this area, are equally magnetic. With a slick back to basics ethic, the hotel is imbued with Mahdavi's whimsical interpretations of modernity. Visit the relaxed rooftop; rife with opportunities for repose on communal sofas, in the therme or the hammam. Check out the basement bar, and feel the energy of CONDESA df; a must stop for style travellers.
