Great visit to son!
Everything was wonderful, except, the hotel misled me a bit with regard to the daily charge for room upgrade/breakfast/happy hour services. I paid about $350 ($50/day) more than I expected. I would have used the "happy hour" more had I known I was paying for it!!!

So So!
the hotel is very well situated, but the service is bad. First the day that we arrived we didn't have a room until late. Then in room sheets were dirty and the next day they didn't change them. I had to call to make sure they change it.

Good experience.
The Intercontinental Presidente Mexico City is ideally located in Polanco. I had a room on the 22nd floor with a lovely view of the National Stadium and adjacent parks. The room was very comfortable and met my expectations. The architectural style of the hotel is iconic and expansive. It has plenty of fine dining options as well. I do recommend this hotel especially to the business traveler, and this seems to be the target guest for this particular hotel. There are a lot of business suits in this hotel, and the staff is quite formal and polite, though a touch too coldly detached for my taste.If you are looking for something more hip, or more boutique-style, there are other excellent options in Mexico City in both Polanco and La Condesa. I should also mention that I found such an exceptional price offer [...]that I could not say no, even though this is not my typical style of hotel.
