The Alest Hotel

Lovely boutique hotel on a quiet street in the heart of Polanco, steps away from Lincoln Park, restaurants, cafes, shops, and more. Elegant spaces, generous rooms and bathrooms, and very comfortable bed. Room amenities and breakfast were first class.

Excellent experience. Room and amenities were TOP. Never experienced anything like it. Dyson hairdryer in the room, Le Labo soap and free minibar. Couldn’t ask for more

Well appointed comfortable rooms in a very safe if somewhat impersonal neighbothood with upscale shopping and residences. Plenty of dining options and night life nearby as well as a great restaurant in house. The staff was particularly responsive and helpful and made our 5 day stay delightful

Quarto era lindo, o hotel extremamente bem localizado. Foi muito gentil eles oferecem o conteúdo do frigobar gratuito. Uma diferença. Como contraponto mas não é apenas desse hotel, no México não existe ducha higiênica. Uma pena. E uma característica cultural, não há costume de pães salgados no café da manhã. Foi difícil entenderem que com dois ovos estrelados, comemos pão.

Superb service and facilities. Cozy, beautiful and comfortable boutique hotel in perfect location. Our group of 12 friends felt really at home. The breakfast was delicious and the restaurant nicely decorated.

My friends and I stayed here for our annual girls trip and The Alest Hotel was the right choice. They were so thoughtful (extra water bottles and toiletries) and kind. Truly a great experience. Quiet, great area to walk around and lots of dining options close. Great breakfast included with our stay. Would highly recommend.

Amazing hotel and location, staff was fantastic. Room was great, just a little unexpected because it had no exterior view so request a room with one. Great breakfast and mini-bar that are all included, would stay again!

Exceptional Stay – Highly Recommend! We had an amazing experience at The Alest Hotel. The hospitality was top-notch—the staff was incredibly courteous and made us feel truly welcomed. Our room was luxurious, comfortable, and beautifully designed. The hotel’s restaurant and bar were a highlight—everything we ordered was delicious and thoughtfully prepared. The Alest is a stunning property in a great location. We can’t wait to come back!

Great staff, lovely touches with mini bar and freebies and excellent finish and attention to detail throughout property

Absolutely fantastic! Beautiful property. Attention to detail 9with everything) was perfect. Restaurant / breakfast and bar also great. Staff a joy to interact with. One of the best hotel experiences I've had in a long time.

Great service, high end hotel. Very clean. Fantastic location. Only reason for the 4 star was that the bed was not very comfortable and the pillows were extremely hard.

Es un hotel muy lindo y ubicado. El personal suele ser muy amable. En esta ocasión la limpieza de la habitación, no fue buena y al nuevo conserje, no le agradó que le solicitara mi auto. Los que cómo siembre súper amables y serviciales el personal del restaurante.

Limpieza y atención al cliente

Very Nice Boutique Hotel, clean, quiet and safe

Me encantó el hotel!!! Todo está impecable

Friendly staff, very clean, great location!

All was great until I got to my room at night and it was not cleaned. Receptionist was not able to help given it was late. I’m staying in the hotel again this weekend and I have mixed feelings given this experience. I would have probably cancelled it, if I had time to look for an alternative and the cancellation fee was not applicable.

GREAT stay! Location is convenient, property exceptionally well kept, staff members - extraordinarily kind! Many staff members deserve more than "honorable mention" here - Ms.Carla, Maribel, Mr.Armando, Marco Antonio, Guillermo and wonderful ladies who made sure our room is nothing but comfortable and clean on daily basis. Thank you all and looking forward to see you all again! Edita & family, San Antonio

The Hotel is very clean and beautiful.

I had a wonderful stay at The Alest Hotel! From the moment I arrived, the staff went above and beyond to make me feel welcomed. It created such a calm and luxurious atmosphere, making it easy to relax and enjoy my stay. If you’re looking for a place that combines impeccable service with top-tier cleanliness, The Alest Hotel is the perfect choice. I can’t wait to return!

The hotel is beautiful, modern and new. The rooms are on the small side but very comfortable. The service was 5 star, very nice staff and accommodating to my requests. Ameneties include daily breakfast served to table, mini bar and mexican sweets in your room. One thing to note is based on the room type, my room didn’t have a window outside - it was nacing an indoor space so there was not a lot of light.

Lovely boutique hotel on a quiet street in the heart of Polanco, steps away from Lincoln Park, restaurants, cafes, shops, and more. Elegant spaces, generous rooms and bathrooms, and very comfortable bed. Room amenities and breakfast were first class.

Our stay at The Alest Hotel was incredibly mixed. On the positive side the hotel is aesthetically pleasing, had a lovely Christmas atmosphere and has some good touches like the Mexican candies on arrival and a restocked minibar each day. We also had good interactions with a number of members of staff including the breakfast waiters and housekeeping. However, on a negative side and what’s drags the rating down is the level of noise in the rooms at the hotel and the lack of appreciation or action by the concierge/reception staff towards this. The rooms are advertised as soundproofed and this is not the case. The windows are French style doors which have glazing but do not seal effectively and the door does not fit the doorframe (due to the unique shape selected for the doors) and is hollow thus does not block noise. This caused us issues on 3/6 nights due to the level of noise in our room being too loud to sleep, on two nights this could be heard through headphones. The issue as we see it is that the interior void/courtyard leads directly down to the bar and restaurant with no noise separation. In my view two things should be true; that you can enjoy a restful night in the rooms, and people should be free to enjoy the bar. Sadly the hotel has not equipped itself to allow both. As the hotel had no interest in resolving the issue and the way our concerns were dealt with in our view this was not a customer service focussed hotel. I couldn’t recommend this hotel.

This is an amazing boutique hotel. central in Mexico City. the staff is super nice. plenty of team members to assist. the beds are not firm my back (not usually bad) hurt after four nights. and the lobby lounge open to a courtyard for many of the rooms so if you have people drinking it feels like they are in the room with you. noise canceling headphones :) the rooms are beautiful and bathrooms amazing.

Ett väldigt trevligt hotell. Här kommer några plus och minus Plus 1. Fri påfyllning av minibar (oerhört uppskattat) 2. Turn down service med choklad på nattduksbordet. Minus 1. Väldigt liten säng 2. Litet rum man kände lite smått instängd då fönster vätte mot en innegård på några få meter. 3. Rummet saknar Chromecast på tvn. Detta hade varit ett trevligt tillskott. 4. Frukostmenyn som var inkluderad var mycket liten. Man fick till och med betala extra för en ynka cappuccino, snålt!! 5. Det finns inga universal uttag i rummet. Hotellet hade heller ingen universal reseadapter att låna ut

Just a lot of noise above me in room

Great service. Beautiful big rooms. Fantastic location.

Wonderful stay although my room was honestly too small for me! Next time I will get a bigger room, beautiful hotel

Great Boutique Hotel. If you like a view, some rooms are internal and don’t have one

Make sure to get a room with outside looking windows!

The best hotel service we have received in our life. Great location and attention to details.

Nice place, staff is over all attentive. Some of the staff need training in basic conflict resolution. Other than that the hotel is a great place to stay.

The Alest is a beautiful hotel located in the best location of CDMX. The staff are really professional and friendly! The hotel is very clean with great amenities.

This was one of the nicest hotel stays we have ever had. Accommodations were beautiful and every member of staff went out their way to make sure we felt at home. From the amazing team at the front desk to the staff in the dining room to the bell staff and the house keeping staff all exhibited the highest levels of professionalism and service.

The Alest never disappoints. This has become our go-to hotel for stays in the Polanco area. Service is top-notch and super friendly. The hotel is gorgeous and the rooms spacious. Until next time!

Muy caro para lo que es Nos perdieron una maleta que dejamos unas horas en resguardo, el Personal exigía propinas etc etc No lo recomiendo en absoluto

GREAT stay! Location is convenient, property exceptionally well kept, staff members - extraordinarily kind!

Great hotel! The staff was amazing.

Everything is great. Only issues are general noise in the hotel as well as staff service. Half are amazing and half aren’t.

Unique and elegant property. Close to shops, walkable and convenient.

Lovely boutique hotel on a quiet street in the heart of Polanco, steps away from Lincoln Park, restaurants, cafes, shops, and more. Elegant spaces, generous rooms and bathrooms, and very comfortable bed. Room amenities and breakfast were first class.

Excelente ubicación

Beautiful property. Great location in Polanco area.

Convenient property near all the shops and restaraunts in Polanco. The hotel is beautifully decorated and offers great service.

Esta en el corazon de polanco, todo esta caminando.

Great staff and location A

Está ubicado a unos pasos de la zona de restaurantes del parque Lincoln y la zona de restaurantes. El hotel es muy lindo, el desayuno es rico, el personal muy amable. Es la segunda vez que nos hospedamos y por supuesto regresaremos.

Amazing hotel, great location.

Very nice and good area

Un muy lindo hotel con una magnífica ubicación, solamente esperábamos más de la comida, pero en general todo estuvo muy bien!

Excelente hotel: buena ubicación, hermosa decoración, atención a los detalles excepcional. Habitación amplia, limpia y cómoda. En la habitación nos recibieron con dulces tradicionales de Mexico, el mini bar estaba incluido y lo surtían todos los días, en las noches nos sorprendían con un postrecito diferente. Lo único que no nos pareció fuera de serie fue la panadería incluida en el desayuno, pero, sin dudarlo, volvería a alojarme en este hotel.

What a lovely experience! Luis arranged the best tours for us. Gave helpful dining recommendations. Everything was within walking distance. Great with teenagers always looking for something to do or eat. The staff were kind, and helpful to my entire family that booked 3 rooms for 4 days. The only thing that could improve was the dining. Breakfast selections in the included breakfast were not great, and honestly we preferred to leave and eat elsewhere or just eat a granola bar instead. After staying at the Four Seasons in April this location is much better, service on par but food selections are weak in comparison.

Beautiful hotel, excellent breakfast, great service, the best location in Polanco! I will definitely be back!
