La Casona Hotel-Relais ReviewReminiscent of a small European luxury hotel, this exquisite establishment opened in 1996 in a formerly dilapidated 1923 building. Mexico's National Institute of Fine Arts has since designated it an artistic monument. Modern conveniences such as flatscreen TVs are juxtaposed with antique furniture in the individually decorated guest rooms. Tall interior shutter doors on guest-room windows keep out sound and light at night, and thick glass mutes street noise by day. Oriental-style rugs warm the hardwood floors and black-and-white marble throughout the common areas, decorated with prints of classical composers and fox hunts. A small French-inspired restaurant next to the lobby is a popular gathering spot. The hotel lies 3 blocks south of the Diana Circle on Reforma and 4 longish blocks west of the western edge of the Zona Rosa. More important than decor or location is the excellent service.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
