Those in the hospitality industry will know the best guest experience is one where they feel at home, and this is exactly what the Ignacia Guest House aims to do.
Located in Mexico City's Colonia Roma district, the Ignacia Guest House was the 2017 winner of the Best Interiors of Latin America and the Caribbean competition. Converted from a mansion built in 1913, its opulent five suites make guests feel as though they are in a luxurious family home. The main historical structure is connected to a newer addition where the suites are located. In between is a comfortable common area for visitors.
As we experience the emerging sharing economy, spaces like the Ignacia Guest House will experience success by providing its guests with an intimate home-away-from-home.
