We are so impressed with our stay at Mansion Papilio! We arrived about an hour before check in and weren’t able to check in right away, however, we were immediately greeted by the most courteous staff and had assistance with our bags. Additionally, while we waited for our room we were brought glasses of complimentary wine and offered to order an amazing meal while we waited. The garden just outside the front of the mansion is where we were able to eat and it was such a pleasant experience. The staff was so attentive the whole way through making sure to check on us, bring us more wine or whatever we needed until our check in at 3PM! When we arrived in the Mansion to Check In, the appearance and aroma inside was spectacular. It was finely decorated for the holidays on top of having beautiful decor already! It was surprisingly very clean (sometimes hard to find with older style buildings). The room was spotless, everything was neat, clean, and felt fresh! In our bathroom, there was a massive shower and Jacuzzi tub and we had no issues with hot water at all, which I was a little skeptical at first because it is also hard to find scorching hot water in older style homes like this. During our stay we also were able to do the S’Mores and Fireplace experience in our room which was very easy to request at night time with the overnight staff! The staff was very courteous, helpful, and pleasant; not overbearing which I really enjoyed. It is a perfect 5 min walking distance from city!

This is a lovely quiet place to stay. The Mansion has very spacious and nicely equipped rooms and sits in the middle of a large garden with many trees and plants and active fountains. There are a couple of peacocks ranging about, as well as a very large tortoise. The staff is very friendly and helpful and speaks excellent English. When I return to CDMX with my wife, I will surely stay there again

The Mansion Papilio is like transporting yourself back in time. My sister and I stayed three nights and it is not just for couples, we enjoyed every minute during our stay. From the peacocks to Picasso the cat and the sulcata tortoise to the furnishings, architecture, lawns and serenity. But what stood out the most was the beyond excellent service provided by our Mayordomo Alan. He gave us a tour of the Mansion and knows so much about the mansion’s history. He worked around the clock tirelessly to make sure we had everything we wanted. Even special requests like my non alcoholic cold beers! He is such an inspiration of loving his job and it shows his commitment to excellent service. We already miss the Mansion and we miss Alan as well. We are already planning our next stay!!! Thanks to everyone at the Mansion!

Unique property in very convenient location

My stay overall was pretty good. The room was spacious and the property well maintained and very unique with a terrific location near many activities and restaurants in the center of Coyoacan.

I have a few suggestions to make service a bit stronger, related to sharing more information should be provided upfront to help visitors (especially foreigners who don't speak Spanish) with instructions and tips upon arrival and basic / common FAQs, including:
- provide the gate code in advance so that visitors are able to come in and not get confused waiting outside on the small sidewalk
- communicate some common FAQs about the WiFi, water and other items ahead of guests arrival (I only later noticed that a lot of this information was actually provided in a booklet inside the room)
- since the staff don't speak English, it makes it even more important to facilitate easy and timely communication of questions and requests especially during hours when the staff are not readily visible / reachable.
Thank you!

Charming but needs attention to details (and A/C).

The building and grounds have a great period feel. Peacocks add atmosphere. The free part of breakfast was just pineapple and coffee, beyond that is $, but good. Staff left us at the gate for several minutes at check in, and were not attentive as to our bags. No air conditioning. No information about how to call reception from room, no tissue dispenser. Loud Etta James and similar at check in (fine choice but loud), but also at 8-9 pm which we could hear clearly in our room until we complained, then again starting just before 9 am. No one wants that. Gardener started also at 9, instead of after checkout time. Since no air, windows were open. Staff needs training. Bathroom door (Suite Patrick) is painted glass and flimsy, lighting in shower / toilet area too dark. We had booked Cezzane but given Patrick as the jacuzzi tub was being fixed. In theory a more expensive room, and no upcharge, but closer to the loud music. Overall, it’s a charming place and needs some improvement to the next level. No A/C was ok in cool weather but would not be in the heat. It’s not far to the Frida Kahlo Museum, but a very long walk for most. Also near Coyoacán’s Coyotes park & restaurants which is very nice.

Beautiful oasis, circa 1923 property with wonderful staff, great location, solid breakfast, and (most importantly) peacocks roaming the property. We stayed in the Juliette room set off to the left of the property and liked the privacy. There were several private experiences for other guests — al Fresca cinema, an engagement proposal with a rose-lined walkway to a giant rose heart in the back courtyard, and a private dinner in the wine cellar. We only had one night but would definitely come back and stay longer.

Almost kicked out but still had a good time

it was great until i was accused of sneaking in extra guests. my friends were tourists like us and desperately needed to charge their phones to get an uber. The language barrier made it hard to explain to the attendants working and i do not blame them at all calling their boss (Those guys were great btw. they deserve all 5 stars). But the boss who spoke to me in english was somehow less understanding than the men who initially raised the concern. It took almost an hour to finally convince him that the phone charging friends had left the second we were told about situation.

All in all amazing people, but management left me feeling unwelcome

Mansion Papilio is so much more than just a convenient place to stay for visiting Coyoacan. The mansion has been beautifully restored, the attention to detail is exquisite. I felt like I was staying in someone’s home. It’s very private and secure. The grounds at the front and the back of the mansion are fabulous too. Everywhere is beautifully maintained. I loved seeing the resident Peaocks and Peahens, which freely roam around the gardens. I received a lovely warm welcome from Beni, who was helpful throughout my stay. Beni also plays the guitar (classical and contemporary) during breakfast. This was such a treat, he is an exceptionally talented musician. I stayed longer at breakfast just to enjoy the music each morning. Anastacio is also great, he was very attentive and provided very high standards of service during breakfast, nothing was too much trouble. Housekeeping do an excellent job too, ensuring everywhere is spotless. I loved my visit to Coyoacan and staying at the mansion made it even more memorable. Thank you to the whole team for making my stay extra special!

A lovely little spot in the heart of Coyoacán. Great service (thank you Martin!) and excellent location. Breakfast in the courtyard among the peacocks and other friendly furry visitors was the highlight.

My only concern was the locks in the door to my hotel room. I was traveling alone as a female and the only lock to my door was a simple push-lock on the door knob that could easily be maneuvered from the outside. I wish there was at least a dead-bolt from the inside for better security. Despite this, everything else was perfect!

Charming and elegant place

First, let me say that we WILL stay here again. The staff was so amazing and we chatted with them about their few downfalls and offered suggestions on how to improve. The staff is so attentive and friendly and \"white glove\" service. The breakfast included was SO awesome! Traditional Mexican breads and great eggs or chilequiles. A beautiful place with old style rooms and decor, PLUS old style working antiques like phones and record player! Bed was great, plenty of TV stations to watch. The few downfalls (but do not let this deter your stay). We did let them know about these. The room had a few spiders that lingered, if cleared daily it would not be an issue. The bath-tub spa did not have hot water, it was luke warm. The hseet and personal towels etc were clean but the overall place does need some more upkeep. this may be due to construction so we did not let it upset our stay. Lastly there is no room temperature control so if its cold its cold and if its hot its hot. Thsi also makes for \"wet\" feelings in the room due to dampness BUT AGAIN they are creating more things for guests and they are upgrading so I bet the next time we stay it will be 100% .... and we can not wait to stay here again! Thanks to the staff and the hotel for a great little mid week get-a-way.

The staff was very friendly and professional. There is so much history in this beautiful home. This is a 100yr old property, so keep that in mind. If you love charm and a unique experience, this is definitely a great property to check out. Our favorite were breakfast in the back yard surrounded by beautiful peacocks and a very friendly little cat. The neighborhood is quite busy and the streets are narrow. Inside the property, you can barely hear any noise.

Mixed experience

Our stay was a very mixed experience. I'll share the positives and negatives to give the fullest review possible, since the existing reviews for Mansion Papilio are definitely in need of clarifying. Positives: The location is in a wonderful, walkable location near to excellent coffee and local restaurants and bars. The staff on site are very kind, and the food and drink included in the breakfast offerings were tasty. The gardens of the hotel are simple and lovely, featuring many peacocks. The sitting rooms inside the hotel are also well curated. There's also a key code entrance to the gate so you can come and go easily. Negatives: Very bare bones accommodations. There is no central air or heat. No screens on any of the windows, so we were extremely bitten by mosquitos (we hope not bed bugs) during our stay. The room (and our bathroom) we stayed in smelled intensely of sewage the entire stay. There's no welcome guide/information packet, so you have to find staff to ask questions, which can be difficult as there is no front desk or concierge. The door knobs to our room and bathroom fell out of their doors during our stay and didn't really lock ever. The pool is exclusive to the large suite, so you can't use it if you're staying in the main house. Loud private gatherings in the gardens until around midnight most of the nights we stayed, which made it difficult to sleep. The bed sort of caved-in in the middle, and was not a queen that I had booked--it was a full sized mattress.

Potential, but needs a lot of attention

The building has potential, but we encountered a few issues. (1) The light in the toilet was not working the whole time. (2) You needed to get buzzed in rather than having a key - meaning standing in a dark Mexican street at night waiting. (3) breakfast could not be arranged until after 9am. (4) there was no one ever at reception. No one spoke English either. Actually this hotel was very strange as we didn’t see any other guests all three days and there were two staff that seemed to be busy always…?

I liked it. The facility is a mansion brought back to life after being abandoned. The restoration is well in place and the overall accommodation is nice. There are still upgrades being made but these do not affect the ambiance. It is a peaceful place - quiet & private - yet close to the heart of Coayacan. I was there during festival time and it felt good to break off from the crowds and recharge. There are only six rooms so most of the time you have the site to yourself.

Beautiful place to stay in Coyoacan

This was my second time in Mexico City and I wanted to stay in Coyoacan area. This hotel grabbed my attention immediately and I’m happy I chose it. I arrived very early (before 7am) and I was happy that the hotel staff was able to help me in. The room and breakfast area are beautiful. The staff is all masked on and the breakfast area are set up outside, so I felt pretty safe. Overall, great experience!

He also gave us a great rate to book one of their chauffeurs, Arturo, to take us to see Teotihuacan. Arturo was amazing, he was patient, incredibly nice, and attended to our every need. Loved the breakfast in the yard every morning and all the amenities they had to offer. I would definitely come back for a longer visit and will recommend it to my family and friends!

Not accurate description

We were in awe at first as the mansion is outstanding. However, it didn't have many things listed on the description. We did not get breakfast, odd as it is a B&B. No pool, no robes in the room, and worst, no hot water in the shower or sink.There was a Nespresso machine, but no cups. There is no where to ask questions, but we did have a phone # to call, which we did when leaving to ask what we were to do with the keys. The beautiful area of Coyoacan is walkable from here, but distances listed in description are not accurate.

Muy bonito, limpio cerca de la plaza las personas que trabajan ahí muy amables y siempre al pendiente de lo que ocupábamos la próxima vez espero usar la piscina la cual dijeron en los reviews que no funciona la cual es mentira porque nos la mostraron y es bella.
Espero regresar muy pronto.!!

Disappointing

Unfortunately this property is not what is advertised. Here are the items that are listed on the website that were not available for our stay:
No bottled water
Pool was not available
No spa services
No designer toiletries (only shampoo & bodywash) in unlabeled refillable containers, Not even tissues
No 24 hour concierge. In fact none at all. No front desk
English is not spoked except by the owner and the finance person
Housekeeping- picked up the used damp towels off the floor and just put them back on the towel rack.
No in room safe (none at all available to us)
No bicycle rental offered
No breakfast available for our stay.

We checked in on Sunday and apparently the staff has off on that day. The grounds keeper and maid assisted us but I don’t speak Spanish so it was difficult. We were awaken at 7:30 on the first morning to construction noise.Upon exiting our room, we found that the furniture in the lobby and sittlng room had been removed and there wer worker redoing the space. The second day we were waken at 6am with people setting. Up the property for a commercial shoot. When we exited our room, there workers everywhere! Note that the owner did apologize for the noise on day one and did cater a dinner for us that was lovely. However, we felt like we were just in the way and really couldn’t wait to leave. I am sure that if we had arrived on another day, and if there had not been a film shoot it would have been a better stay. Unfortunately it was not.

The house is a hidden jewel in beautiful Mexico City! We were a little scared in a huge house a night, yet the care givers made sure we felt safe and comfortable, even in the thunder storm! Everyone was helpful and welcoming. Will stay again!

What an enchanted place. The minute we arrived at the Mansion Papilio we were mesmerized by this beautiful villa. Large rooms with windows facing the park to elegant salons provided an atmosphere of 19th century charm. Enrique, the owner and his staff went out of their way to provide us with an extraordinary experience, from serving breakfast in the lavish park by the koi pond to helping us with all questions we had. Also nice to know is that Jardin Centernario is only a short walk away and offers great restaurants and bars with a Coyoacan flavor. I’m still day dreaming about this place. Wonderful, wonderful!

Lovely on the outside, poor on the inside

The TV did not work, the light above the sink did not work, dangerous opening window, no reception area to contact, no phone in room to contact reception, very weak shower and you either got very hot or very cold water, beautiful house and grounds and great location, not really a hotel just felt like an unwelcome lodger

Amazing mansion and service!

I had never known that such a large, luxurious place existed in Coyoacan! What happy accident to discover Mansion Papilio. Staying here is about as close as I think I'll ever get to reliving the opening scene of The Great Gatsby. From the moment the groundskeeper opens the door, you're treated by the entire staff like you're an honored guest of the millionaire owner.

The staff is truly amazing, they are delighted to arrange anything for you from an amazing couples dinner (with fireworks!), small parties and pretty much anything your heart desires! Do also check out the wine cellar, of which many Southern French estates would be jealous.

Whether a weekend couples getaway, or a place where you can let your kids roam free around the extensive yards...I cannot think of a better property in Mexico City for a true getaway.

Dieser Ort ist magisch und eine grüne Oase der Ruhe im Zentrum von Mexico City - das Personal ist unglaublich aufmerksam und die Zimmer sind individuell eingerichtet - ich hatte einen Whirlpool im Badezimmer mit Blick auf den Garten - herrlich!
