"Hidden behind an unassuming façade on a cobbled street in Roma Norte, this design-driven guesthouse attracts discerning travelers. The nine suites share a common aesthetic with subtle variations: the Master Suite and Patio rooms feel more neutral with elegant decor and slight pops of color; the Balcóns adopt richer palettes and unique design elements; and the two Terrazas showcase especially fun pieces of art. Most of the action happens in the library, patio, dining room, and a Maya-inspired hot tub, where I like to linger." - Alexis Mustri Guindi
"Set behind an unassuming façade in the cobbled Roma Norte neighborhood, Ignacia Guesthouse attracts discerning travelers with an eye for design. The nine guest suites have similar designs with differences in the detailing: the Master Suite and Patio rooms are more neutral, with elegant decor and chic pops of color; the Balcóns have richer color schemes with unique design elements; and two Terrazas have especially fun pieces of art. You'll find most of the action in the gathering spaces: the library, patio, dining room, and pyramidal, Maya-inspired hot tub. Guests gather in the patio at all hours, whether for coffee in the morning or cocktails during the daily happy hour." - Susannah Rigg, Michaela Trimble
"This five-room Roma Norte property is visually striking—plush furnishings and geometric carpentry in bright candy colors—and carries a One-MICHELIN-Key rating that underscores its celebrated interior design; rooms start around $218 and include breakfast served in the garden." - David Shortell
"This Beaux-Arts mansion was first built in 1913 as a private family home and is now one of the top boutique properties in the Roma Norte borough. Named after the home’s housekeeper, Ignacia, who worked at the mansion for more than forty years, the nine-suite property—featuring a salon, dining room, kitchen area, and three suites set in the original structure—is sought after for its cozy feel, as if you’re staying at the home of a well-to-do friend. In partnership with construction firm Factor Eficiencia, the designer Andrés Gutiérrez was tapped to create a new extension of the property, which now houses four suites designed in color-blocked interiors, from a gold-hued room to one decked in shades of rose. In 2022, two balcony suites were added, which share a common outdoor space adorned with fireplaces and a jacuzzi framed by treetops. During a stay, guests are privy to elaborate breakfast spreads that present Mexican classics like huevos rancheros and chilaquiles in the highest quality manner with ingredients sourced from traditional markets around the city." - Michaela Trimble
"Set behind an unassuming façade in the cobbled Roma Norte neighborhood, Ignacia Guesthouse attracts discerning travelers with an eye for design. The five guest suites are designed in a monochromatic color scheme, ranging from an all-gold suite with plush velvet furnishings to a sleek and modern all-black hideaway with a private French-door breakfast terrace. Each room comes with a private nook to enjoy the home’s central courtyard—and that’s where you’ll find most of the action. Guests gather on the patio at all hours, whether for coffee in the morning or cocktails during the daily (and complimentary) happy hour. —Michaela Trimble"
