MIAMI (August 4, 2017) – Barceló Hotel Group today announced the opening of Barceló México Reforma, a new 500-room, 5-star flagship hotel in the heart of Mexico City, located on the iconic Paseo de la Reforma.

“With 21 hotels, we already have a strong presence in Mexico, but it has taken us some time to reach the capital,” says Juan Perez Sosa, Senior Vice President of Sales & Marketing in the United States. “We are proud to establish our presence in Mexico City with such a superb hotel. It will be a pleasure to demonstrate our extensive expertise in the urban hospitality industry, which we have been developing over the course of many years in major Latin American and European cities.”

The Barceló México Reforma, Barceló Hotel Group’s first urban hotel in Mexico, will serve as a perfect addition to Paseo de la Reforma, which is one of Mexico City’s most dynamic destinations for shopping, culture, tourism, and business. The area has experienced a real estate boom in recent years thanks to the construction of large skyscrapers and the restoration of classic buildings that blend modernism with contemporary architectural styles. The establishment, which was completely renovated in 2015, features a buffet restaurant, a steakhouse, lobby bar, wellness offerings, a sports bar and lounge, and modern events facilities that can accommodate groups of up to 800 people. The Barceló Mexico Reforma allows both business, cultural and leisure travelers to make the most of a unique city, in a setting that reflects the spirit of the Mexican people and their traditions.

“We’re using our classic Barceló brand principles for this new property,” Sosa says. “This will enable us to transform Barceló México Reforma into an example of quality and exclusiveness, where guests can enjoy exciting and unforgettable experiences.”
