Mexico City is one of the world’s largest and most dynamic metropolises, and soon-to-open Casona Roma Norte is the ideal respite after a day out in the busy streets, renowned museums and galleries and intoxicating food markets.
Housed inside a meticulously restored 1920s mansion, Casona Roma Norte merges the historical charms of Mexico City with the contemporary sophistication expected of a design-centric modern hotel.
The neighbourhood brims with creative energy and cultural vibrancy and is speckled with tree-lined streets and Art Deco architecture. The latest addition to Mexico’s distinguished Hamak Hotels collection—a brand known for its dedication to a strong sense of place—the 32-room Casona Roma NOrte is set to open its doors on October 1, 2024.
Mexico City’s impeccable artistic style is imbued in the hotel’s collection, including photography by Santiago Arau and work by Mexico City artists Carolina Barrios and Maria Rec
