Orchid House Polanco

Campos Elíseos 76 · Mexico City · 17 rooms

A boutique hotel in Polanco, steps from Masaryk. Step through the door, the mansion is yours.

Destination

Mansions, Casas Polanco, the neighbourhood

On Campos Elíseos, between Chapultepec and Masaryk. Century-old mansions sit alongside the city's most elegant shopping avenue — Palacio de Hierro, Antara, Onora Casa. Everything that matters is on foot, with the Polanco metro station around the corner.

A side walkway between planters and the facade, with marble tables and green wrought-iron chairs, black-and-white tiled floor and the street gate beyond
A guest room with an ornate brass headboard, white bedding, embroidered black cushions and a dark throw at the foot, beside a floor lamp and a dresser with amenities
The facade seen from the garden, with its red tile roof, wrought-iron balconies with flowers and a tall arched stained-glass window, among trees and ferns
A room with wood flooring: a woven cane headboard and white bedding on one side, and an open bathroom with a wooden double vanity facing the mirror on the other
A guest seated on Aura's terrace, a red cocktail on the table and the gold «Aura» sign among the ivy behind her
The house's lobby: the staircase with orchids hanging from its railing, green armchairs, art on the walls and the red-and-blue tiled floor

Wellness

Wellness here isn't a treatment off a brochure: it's the rhythm of your stay. A double-height lobby, blue stained-glass arches and fresh orchids beneath a wrought-iron chandelier over century-old columns — the quiet of an inner courtyard that separates the streets of Polanco from life inside the mansion.

In every room, noble materials: talavera-tile floors, wood niches, brass headboards. Capsule coffee in the morning, room service whenever you ask for it, air conditioning, and a different bed in each of the 17 rooms.

On arrival, a fresh orchid waits in your room — the same welcome gesture Orchid House Hotels extends at every one of its houses. This isn't a spa. Rest, like everything here, comes already taken care of before you arrive. All you have to do is stay.

What guests say

Coming home to orchids and quiet — arriving back at the hotel after a day out in the city felt like reaching a true oasis.

Cultural Guide

The National Museum of Anthropology, 450 metres away — with guided tours led by anthropologists who interpret, not just narrate, Mesoamerican cosmology. Chapultepec Forest and the National Auditorium, on foot.

For those looking for something more: a private visit to Frida Kahlo's Casa Azul, after hours, once the museum closes its doors to the public. Or sunrise in a hot-air balloon over the Teotihuacán pyramids, with a ground exploration through mud and cacao. Every Orchid Society experience is curated and private — the luxury isn't only in the access, but in the depth of what's discovered.

Tours curated by the house — tell us what you want to see, and the front desk takes care of the rest, table included.

Gastronomy

Aura Campos Elíseos, the Secret Garden terrace: a glass roof, a fluted green bar, a stone fountain and hanging ferns over marble tables. That's where chef Alejandro Rojas's Neapolitan pizza is served, along with the continental breakfast each morning and the cocktails that carry the afternoon.

Aura's kitchen follows the same philosophy as the rest of the experience: local ingredients and recipes with roots, served without needing to explain themselves.

Around the corner, the neighbourhood sets the rest of the table: Pujol 15 minutes away, Quintonil 9, Entremar — some of the country's most recognized tables, with a presence on the World's 50 Best list, all reachable on foot from the door.
