Mexico City
The word is out; Mexico City has become the destination for digital nomads around the globe. But you don’t have to be a digital nomad to fall in love with Mexico City. Away from the crowded historic center, Roma, Condesa, and Polanco's tree-lined neighborhoods are colorful and alive with a vibrant outdoor café culture.
Cool mornings give way to sunny, warm days with no humidity, fantastic restaurants, museums, history, and fresh tropical juices squeezed on every corner. Best of all, it’s so inexpensive; a 45-minute Uber drive from the airport to Roma Norte was $6.50! Don’t be surprised if you question your cost of living at home once you’ve experienced the quality of life in Mexico City.
Where to stay to experience the magic of Mexico City? Brick Hotel in the heart of Roma Norte is a member of Small Luxury Hotels of the World. You might imagine that the “Bricks” of Brick Hotel were hand-crafted from the clay of Mexico’s historic Aztec pyramids. In fact, it was B.Y.O.B., “Bring Your Own Bricks.”
