Brick Hotel Mexico City - Small Luxury Hotels of the World

LOVED the breakfast!!!

???

The location was perfect, espeically for first time or solo travelers - many shops and restaurants in the area; very walkable; lively day and night life. But, if you want a more authentic neighborhood, this would not be it; too many tourists and the prices in the area are jacked up for tourists. That being said, it was easy to take Uber or Didi to any other destination. The hotel had a very soothing ambience; very clean; friendly staff; but the double room we had was quite small and the bathroom was tiny. But the balcony was perfet and it made the room felt more spacious. The bed and pillows were very comfortable. The daily breakfast that came with the room was very nice - fresh bakery and variaty of breakfast dishes to choose from. Do not take the hotel shuttle from the airport; they wanted to charge us about $150 USD, when Didi or Uber was under $15 USD. That just did not feel right; left somewhat of a negative impression.

The room was quite small for the price. The bathroom was tiny; felt claustrophobic. I am 5'5" and 140 lbs, and I had very little room to move in the bathroom. The sink area was also very tiny. Very basic room amenditites, including one tiny expresso maker and 2-3 expresso pods; not sure how we are supposed to make a latte from that; a pot for hot water for night time tea would have been nice. The water pressure was not high; maybe that was just city/area wide issue (not sure); but not bad enough to ruin a shower.

Lovely people great location beautiful hotel and fantastic breakfast. The best of all the hotels I’ve stayed at this year by far.

No windows in my room which caused me to oversleep lol Not a show stopper but others need to be aware

The location of the Brick was excellent! Right off the main road with all the restaurants and shops. Plenty of museums and parks within walking distance. The hotel staff were kind and helpful; I scheduled a massage for the Hela spa one day and the service was great! The nightly turndown service with Mexican cookies was a pleasant surprise. Room service was also excellent!

For the price of our room and the marketing of it being part of the “small luxury hotels of the world” group, we were expecting much more. Our deluxe room had a terrace facing the street, and there was ZERO soundproofing; you could hear every single noise outside. One morning there was a business conference in the open-air restaurant and we had to listen to speakers talking from 7am-noon. We should have realized that when we saw the ear plugs on the night stand. The bathroom area was very, very small, and dated - peeling paint and dirty sink caulking. The TV is marketed as a smart TV, but the system was dated and very complicated and the only option was Netflix.
