Here’s a few night’s hotel research for a three week trip that I thought I may as well save for future ref. It’s worth mentioning I was given the three line whip – not too much travelling around! So I cut Baja and the Pacific coast out the equation.
MEXICO CITY
Downtown Mexica https://www.tablethotels.com/Downtown-Mexico-Hotel/Mexico-City-Hotels-Mexico/116597 From $115
Condesa DF – nice leafy area https://www.designhotels.com/hotels/americas/mexico/mexico_city/condesa_df
More homely https://theredtreehouse.com/gallery/galeria/
CENTRAL HIGHLANDS
2 HRS DRIVE FROM MEXICO CITY – for calm, trees, horses:

PUEBLO – Volcano city, old, interesting, 90 min drive from Mexico City
LA PURIFICADORA https://www.designhotels.com/hotels/americas/mexico/puebla/la_purificadora From $120
Edward James Estate, as Pozas 5 hours from Mexico City – bonkers surrealist estate in the hilly jungle. I would kill to go here. But it is a journey and a half.
