Squarely aimed at the executive class, but still well suited to travelers visiting for pleasure, the 240-room Four Seasons offers a tranquil oasis on bustling Paseo de la Reforma. Built in a Colonial style, with Palladian arched windows and a huge, immaculately landscaped central garden complete with caged songbirds and a grand fountain, this is quintessential five-star luxury. (The concierges here are outstanding.) The property underwent a major facelift in 2015, and this grand dame now sports a host of new additions, including cozy high-end Italian dining room Il Becco, a French pastry shop called Pan Dulce, suave cocktail bar Fifty Mils, and a nostalgic, British-influenced gentleman's barber shop. (Rooms, from $290)
