Mexico City has many great hotel and Airbnb options depending on your preference and budget. If you choose not to stay at one of the hotels listed below (CondesaDF, the Intercontinental, or Sofitel), we would recommend looking for an Airbnb in Juarez, Roma Norte, Roma, or La Condesa.

All the neighborhoods are very walkable, and safe, and have plentiful food, drink, and transportation options. The wedding venue itself is in the Juarez neighborhood, which is a very hip and upscale neighborhood, as well as the neighborhoods surrounding it. We would not recommend staying in the Historic City Center, as traffic can get quite bad for getting to and from the venue.

Roma and Roma Norte are described as Mexico City's culinary and artistic zeitgeist. The Roma neighborhoods have European architecture, tree-lined streets, and are covered in galleries, up-and-coming restaurants, and bars. Roma and Roma Norte attract a younger crowd than La Condesa and Polanco, and are perfect for guests who want to get a taste of Mexico City's nightlife.

La Condesa and Polanco are equally beautiful neighborhoods and fashion hubs within Mexico City that have a number of pristine public parks. While Roma and Roma Norte are often described as slightly more hipster and lively, La Condesa and Polanco are a bit more upscale with a quieter vibe.
