Casa Nuevo Leon
Avenida Nuevo León 120, Col. Hipodromo Condesa, Mexico City, CDMX 06100, MexicoWhy We Like It
If want to stay in Condesa, are on a budget, and don't need a full-service hotel, this might be your best choice.
Fodor's Expert Review
More of a B&B (minus the breakfast) than a full-service boutique hotel, Casa Nuevo Leon is a good find for independent travelers who don't need amenities and fawning service. Condesa is one of the city's most exclusive neighborhoods, and the hotel could not be better situated. It's like having your own immaculate studio apartment without resorting to AirBnb.
You Should Know If stairs are a concern, there is no elevator, and no ground-floor rooms.

Hotel is accessed via buzzer, and the always-manned front desk provides additional security.
