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.

Habita is Mexico City's spin on a modern design hotel. Situated in the Polanco district, a fashionable neighborhood of tree lined boulevards, trendy restaurants and chic shopping, one can enjoy culture in the heart of the city's business center. The converted 1950's building has gained a new identity, bringing in light and space by adding a "wrapper" of frosted glass.
