First time staying at this hotel while on business trip with a side of museum visits (Soumaya and…read moreAnthropology). This is the best hotel I've stayed at in CDMX on approximately 30+ trips here. This includes the W (nope), Westin (uh-uh), Sheraton (chaos, if there's a demonstration - and there usually is one ongoing), even the St. Regis, Ritz-Carlton and JW Marriott - all too stuffy. Santiago from NJ, by way of the NYU Shanghai campus, was excellent and almost everyone here speaks English perfectly. I felt like I was in NYC, except that the service was better and the staff was much more accommodating. Breakfast was included, nothing spectacular, but everything was solid, good coffee, fresh fruit, fresh pastries, good jams and yogurt. Perfect, light start to the day. The room was not big, but well laid out with every amenity, refrigerator, beverages, Nespresso machine, bottled water and a selection of assorted snacks - all complimentary (except alcohol, unnecessary with all the good bars nearby). The gym was literally situated in a single hotel room on the lower floor. It was tiny, but fully equipped for a one-person, HIIT session. The single issue was the incessant bass drone from the bar nearby. Earplugs didn't work because it wasn't possible to mask the low Hz frequency effectively. Every major museum was about a 25 minute stroll through scenic neighborhoods to get to. Some of the best restaurants (Nobu, Sylvestre) were around the corner. All in all this is probably the best place to stay in CDMX. If not for the bass from the bar, which was totally not the hotel's fault, this was probably the quietest hotel I've ever stayed in Mexico (no children or pets, I think, but not sure). No drunk teens shouting in the hallways - idyllic. About $500-$700/night depending on date. Totally worth it.

There is also a little bar serving food and drinks. There are several shops within the market on two levels. There are also vendors selling items outside on the first floor. The prices vary, but most of the stuff upstairs seemed more high-end. The owner was very friendly and welcomed me and asked me how I found out about the market. I told him an Instagram travel influencer made it look like a cool place to stop in, and she was right!

There is a cool cafeteria run by couple of chilean guys but so far they are not very good taking several orders and delivering to the terrace upstairs. The highlight of my visit was a band that played covers during the Saturday evening that I was there. This is a place to have a look, grab a coffee, listen to some music and get out. Savvy shoppers should not spend money there.

We were originally placed in an awkward standing spot (which we were totally ok with) since it was a first come, first serve situation, however shortly after being placed there, a small table next to us got up and the lady told us we could sit there!
