What they say
One Michelin Key
Michelin
Like its sister Pug Seal Allan Poe, Pug Seal Anatole France is also housed in a 1940s private mansion in an upscale part of Polanco, but also like its sibling, it manages to stand out…
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Set on a leafy residential block, the mansion sits an easy walk from Parque América and the boutiques of Presidente Masaryk.
The rooms
Eclectic bedrooms pair eye-popping prints with graphic stripes, while select suites add private soaking tubs or outdoor hot tubs.
Dogs stay too.
At the table
Breakfast is served in the floral dining room or out in the courtyard, alongside all-day drinks and snacks.
How it began
The restored 1940s mansion was conceived as an homage to the European immigrant families who shaped Polanco's early cultural fabric.
