Chapultepec Castle stands at the top of Chapultepec Hill, overlooking the capital of Mexico City. It seems strange to have a neo-classical, European-looking castle in the middle of the metropolitan and modern downtown. As out of place as it seems, amongst the bright and colourful architecture of Mexico City, the charm of Chapultepec still draws people in. The Castle is still one of the most visited landmarks in Mexico City.

Casa Dovela is a three suite, “Casa-Boutique”. It’s a cross between a luxury home and a boutique hotel located along the art-deco streets of Condesa. The building, which is now the boutique hotel, was left abandoned, like so many other residences in Condesa after the earthquake. But seeing its developmental potential, the creators, Chic by Accident Project and Ludwig Godefroy, snapped it up. They nabbed it just as the revitalization of Condesa was starting to take place. Aspects of the original architecture were preserved, but many parts of the building were modernized both for aesthetics and comfort.

When people ask me for something fun and unique to do in Mexico City, the first thing that comes to mind is Sunday mornings, riding down car-free Paseo de la Reforma. This experience is both a fantastic sightseeing opportunity but also an excellent chance to interact with cheery locals, out enjoying their city.
