Our take
Umbral, Curio Collection by Hilton puts a rooftop terrace with a pool, a restaurant and a bar above the historic city center of Mexico City, with a gym and a juice bar in the building. I recommend it to travelers who want a lively rooftop scene inside a polished four-star hotel, and it is pet-friendly. Those who want a quiet, low-key stay should look elsewhere, since the terrace is the main event. A 9.4 rating across 1,190 reviews supports it.
- ✓Head to the rooftop in the late afternoon to secure a prime spot by the pool or bar for sunset views over the historic center.
- ✓Consider dining on the terrace in the evening; the city lights create a distinct ambiance for a memorable meal.
- ✓Explore the nearby Constitution Plaza and return to the rooftop for a refreshing drink, especially during warmer months.

Why guests love itTwo friends who came for the Centro Histórico chose Umbral for its rooftop, where a pool, a restaurant and a bar share one terrace above the old city. They spent late afternoons by the water, moved to the bar as the historic center's old rooftops caught the evening light, then ate up there too. Mornings began at the juice bar after a session in the gym. The terrace gets lively and social, which they loved, but anyone wanting a secluded, silent rooftop should look elsewhere.
