The Polanco area is integrated by Polanco Chapultepec and Polanco Reforma. It is situated in the north-wester part of Mexico City, in the Miguel Hidalgo borough. Polanco is one of the most traditional and cosmopolitan neighborhoods of the city and maybe even of the entire country. Since its beginnings, it was planned as a residential and commercial area, harnessing the properties adjacent to the Hacienda de San Juan de los Morales, which today remains as an iconic restaurant in the area.

Today, to live in Polanco means to live in one of the most exclusive neighborhoods in the city. It’s enough to just browse around its many streets named after great philosophers and humanists in order to revel in amazing green landscapes, museums, upscale restaurants, the best hotels in the city, exclusive shops and the harmonious diversity of its homes that range from large Californian colonial-style residences to more modern building with spacious apartments.
