Elite 47

Elite 47 Overview

First Impressions

Elite 47 sits in La Herradura, one of those upscale neighborhoods west of Mexico City that feels worlds away from the capital’s chaos. When I first pulled up to this four-star property, I was struck by how modern and sleek it looked — honestly, it’s more contemporary than I expected for the area. The building has clean lines and lots of glass, which works well in this business district setting. You know what really caught my attention though? The fact that parking is completely free and right on-site, which is actually a huge deal when you’re staying anywhere near Mexico City.

Location & Neighborhood

La Herradura is essentially Mexico City’s answer to a modern business hub, and Elite 47 is perfectly positioned to take advantage of that. You’re in Huixquilucan, which means you get that polished, international feel without being stuck in downtown traffic for hours. The area around the hotel is dotted with corporate offices and upscale developments — it’s the kind of place where you’ll see more BMWs than buses, if you know what I mean. Couples seem to really appreciate the quieter, more refined atmosphere here, and I can see why. It’s sophisticated without being stuffy.

The Experience

What sets this place apart is how it balances business-friendly amenities with genuine comfort. The staff clearly understands that their guests are often here for work but still want to feel taken care of. I mean, the service feels personal rather than corporate, which isn’t always easy to pull off in a business district hotel. The common areas have that polished, contemporary vibe that works whether you’re meeting clients or just trying to unwind after a long day. Recent guests have been rating the location particularly highly — and honestly, once you experience how much easier it is to get around from here compared to central Mexico City, you’ll understand why.

Practical Perks

Let’s talk about what actually matters when you’re traveling. That free parking I mentioned? It’s not just a nice-to-have — it’s essential in this part of Mexico, where parking can be both expensive and hard to find. The hotel’s location means you can easily access both Mexico City proper and the surrounding business areas without the headache of navigating the most congested parts of the city. Plus, being in La Herradura gives you access to some really good restaurants and shopping that locals know about but tourists often miss.

Why Guests Love It

The combination of modern comfort and strategic location really works here. Couples particularly seem to appreciate how Elite 47 offers a more intimate, upscale experience than the massive chain hotels you’ll find closer to the city center. The neighborhood feels safe and well-maintained, which matters when you’re exploring a new area. And honestly, there’s something refreshing about staying somewhere that feels connected to Mexico City’s business and residential life rather than just its tourist infrastructure. It’s the kind of place that makes you feel like you’re experiencing how locals actually live and work, not just visiting.

Savvy travelers reserve a hotel in Mexico before winter whale-watching fills Pacific beach towns with eco-lodges.

  El precio y la disponibilidad.
  Habitación amplia y con toda la esencia de un hotel perooo raro.
  
  What could be improved: Es un espacio raro, esta en una calle que parece que esta todo en construcción y no hay nada, ni nadie, se siente inseguro y el numero que viene esta mal es otro diferente ademas de que abajo del edificio parece un torre de departamentos, subes al primer piso y ahí esta el "lobby" del hotel.
  El hotel esta un poco de miedo por que esta completamente solo.
  No incluye limpieza el cuarto (no se por que no se menciona antes)
