In the heart of Mexico City's charming Coyoacan neighborhood is . A Mexican cultural center that offers tours, experiences, and even a bed and breakfast!
We can say with full confidence that our stay in Mexico City would not have been so magical had we not stayed here and met the incredible owners, Ninelth and Javier. They welcomed us into their home with such generosity and openness.
Our first night when we arrived we had an opportunity to join in on the dance lessons they were holding on their rooftop terrace in collaboration with . This seriously pushed me out of my comfort zone (given that I have two left feet), but we immediately felt safe, welcomed, and enjoyed the HELL out of it! I cannot recommend this enough! Lessons are usually held on Friday nights. If you're on town on a Thursday be sure to check out their jazz nights on the rooftop as well!
La Puerta de Quetzalcoatl also operates their own restaurant which serves up traditional Mexican cuisine with a vegetarian twist! I'm still dreaming about the chickpea tostadas 🤤
If you're not around for one of their event nights be sure to stop into their shop which has independently designed art from Ninelth and authentic locally sourced Mezcal.
A huge thank you to Javier and Ninelth for making our time in CDMX so memorable. we can't wait to be back!
