Departamento Arquimedes 214 – 503 Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to Departamento Arquimedes 214 – 503 in Mexico City, you immediately get the sense that this isn’t your typical hotel experience — and honestly, that’s exactly what makes it work. This three-star property sits right in the heart of Polanco, one of the city’s most upscale neighborhoods, and the building itself has that classic Mexican architectural charm that you can’t fake. The fact that recent guests rated the location a 9.3 out of 10 tells you everything you need about where you’ll be staying.

The Polanco Advantage

You know what’s great about staying on Calle Arquímedes? You’re literally surrounded by some of the best restaurants, galleries, and shopping that Mexico City has to offer, but you’re not dealing with the chaos of Centro Histórico or Roma Norte. I mean, you can walk to Chapultepec Park in about ten minutes, and the Museo Nacional de Antropología is practically next door. The tree-lined streets here feel almost European — which is probably why couples rate this place so highly for romantic getaways.

Your Space

The apartment setup here is what really sets this place apart from standard hotel rooms. You get a proper living space with a functional kitchen, which honestly saves you a fortune when you’re staying for more than a couple nights. The room itself feels more like a temporary home than a hotel crash pad, and there’s something refreshing about being able to make your morning coffee without having to get dressed and venture downstairs to a lobby.

Practical Perks

Here’s something you don’t often find in this part of the city — free private parking right on site. If you’re planning to explore beyond Mexico City (maybe a day trip to Teotihuacán or Cuernavaca), having your car safely tucked away without paying those ridiculous daily rates is actually a huge relief. The building feels secure, and the staff knows the neighborhood well enough to give you solid recommendations that go beyond the typical tourist traps.

Why Guests Love It

What keeps people coming back is that perfect balance between independence and service — you get the privacy of your own place but with the peace of mind that comes with staying somewhere professionally managed. The location really can’t be beat if you want to experience Mexico City like someone who actually lives here, rather than just passing through. Plus, at this price point in Polanco, you’re getting incredible value for a neighborhood where hotel rates usually make your wallet weep.

Reviews of Departamento Arquimedes 214 – 503

• Alejandra from Mexico – 8 May 2025 (9/10)

  La ubicación es magnífica y cuenta con todo lo necesario

• Juan from Colombia – 7 February 2025 (7/10)

  El apartamento es acogedor, cómodo, bien dotado y su ubicación bastante buena, está cerca de todo tipo de comercios y el barrio se siente seguro. El personal que lo administra siempre dispuesto a solucionar cualquier percance.
  
  What could be improved: En las fotos se da a entender como si fueran dos habitaciones, y la descripción comunica esto; pero resulta ser que son fotos de la misma habitación con diferente color de pared, y la que sería la segunda habitación es un espacio adecuado en la misma única habitación, sin puerta divisoria.
  Aunque se solucionó sin mayor contratiempo, varios de los servicios no estaban disponibles a nuestra llegada, como almohadas suficientes, toallas suficientes, la señal de streaming para el TV, papel higiénico (este último tuvimos que comprarlo nosotros pues tardaron bastante en entregarlo).
  La limpieza puede mejorar.

• Mery from Mexico – 5 January 2024 (7/10)

  Excellent emplacement, tous les commerces sont très proches : supermarché, pharmacie, restaurants, même le métro. l'immeuble dispose d'un service de sécurité privé dont les membres sont très aimables. Nous avons aimé avoir accès au balcon.
  
  What could be improved: Nous avons trouvé le lit très dur, le matelas du lit n'est pas un matelas, c'était autre chose donc nous avons mal dormi pendant plusieurs nuits. Veuillez acheter un matelas pour les futurs clients.
  L'ampoule du réfrigérateur est brulée, elle n'a jamais fonctionné, donc le réfrigérateur était toujours sombre,
  Le lavabo adjacent au chauffe-eau n'est pas raccordé à la plomberie, ce qui fait en sorte que l'eau sortant du robinet coule par terre au lieu de s'évacuer par une canalisation.

• Rafael from Uruguay – 9 February 2023 (9/10)

  La ubicación y las comodidades, y Montse siempre estuvo al pendiente para dar soluciones.
  
  What could be improved: todo ok

• Ma from United States – 20 June 2022 (4/10)

  Location and Staff
  
  What could be improved: No toilet paper, no soap, needs more cleaning the blinds were broken so at night the light didn't let you sleep, not even a small bottle of water to give you the welcome is not a cheap rate so I should expect more for that price.
