Mexico City hotel highlight
Had a lovely, super relaxing stay here. El Patio 77 is a calm, cool oasis in the city. A designer’s eye marries Paris with Mexico City. Vibrant and sophisticated. Friendly and warm. Breakfast in the sunny atrium courtyard is the perfect start to the day. The owners are lovely and extremely helpful.
