Having trouble deciding where we should stay: 4 year old kid in tow.

I doubt we can go wrong and have read a decent amount online. Curious if anyone has been and said "oh I wish we stayed in ________ instead"

Condesa and Polanco are the 2 vecindarios closest to Bosque/ Castillo De Chapultepec. Can't go wrong with either. What are you trying to get into in CDMX?

Want a change of pace from Cabo, Cozumel, Cancun. Puerto Vallarta.

Thinking Papalote Museo de Nino, Zoologica, Historic sites, shopping districts, good food.

Ok Let me make a list. We lived in Santa Fe. The St Regis is really nice

I lived in Polanco but spent most of my time in Condesa. Polanco is a tad more convenient for the Arch Museum, bosque and Lincoln Park is very kid friendly on weekends. Condesa/roma by parque Espana and Mexico is also good with kids in tow. Enjoy, I will be back down for a weekend in a couple of weeks and it is always a nice getaway.

I haven't booked anything that isn't refundable. Definitely want to keep in mind that I want to have stuff for my daughter to see/do.

Zoo + kids museum was easily 2 morning activities.

Got ya, I've been to all those but not with a 4yr old in tow. If you have never been to Monterrey might be worth checking out as well - I got to play soccer on the tigres field as kid…super pretty, culture, etc

We love living in Polanco with a 1 year and 5 year old. Mexico really welcomes children most places. Reach out if you have any questions.

Nice, I was by Parque Ghandi almost in Anzures but my office was next to Soumaya. Man I miss it there, I touch back quite a bit, but I hope I get another stint down in the DF.

I always stay in Zona Rosa for the proximity to the Insurgentes metro stop. Condesa would be great with a young kid in tow I would think. Lot's of parks and easy to walk around.

Had an absolute blast. We stayed around Aguascalientes on the border of Roma Norte and Sur

We walked 7+ miles everyday and still took Ubers around. So much to see, eat, drink, and visit.

Luche Libres were a blast.

Just got back yesterday. Was there for 5 days and 4 nights. First time visiting. Stayed in Condesa. Can't overstate how much I loved it. Already planning another trip back sometime this year.

Nice. We were in an apartment on Antonio Sola and Cuernavaca on your 10:00. Such a cool city.

Any must try eatery?

I liked Marlindo.

Contramar was good for seafood tostadas but overblown in terms of hype vs reality.

Went to Rosetta Panaderia and that was also tasty.

Yellow Monkey for breakfast another day.
