Tucked into Mexico City’s fashionable Roma Norte, Hotel Brick is a boutique retreat with a storied past. Once a locksmith’s workshop and later a bordello, the property retains original ceramic tiles and straw bricks from its 20th-century origins, reimagined with contemporary elegance. Its 17 monochrome-toned rooms and suites are restful havens, some with claw-foot tubs or balconies overlooking leafy streets. Culinary offerings include Cerrajería, led by Chef Armando Acosta, serving inventive Mexican cuisine with a sommelier-curated wine list, and Embury, a speakeasy for late-night cocktails. Terraza 95’s firelit terrace provides a laidback counterpoint. Between explorations of Roma’s parks, cafés, and galleries, guests can retreat to Hela Spa for indulgent therapies, a sauna, and steam rituals.
