Ritz-Carlton

Ritz-Carlton is set to open its first hotel in Mexico City in 2019, marking the firm’s entry into one of the region’s most prominent capital cities.

The new 153-room property will operate under a long-term management agreement with Thor Urbana Capital and Heldan Hotels & Resorts.

Ritz-Carlton president Herve Humler said: "We are thrilled to collaborate with Thor Urbana Capital and Heldan Hotels & Resorts to expand our presence in the Caribbean and Latin America, particularly in Mexico City, an epicenter of commerce and culture.

"Mexico remains one of the largest and most important international markets for our company, and we are confident that our legendary Ritz-Carlton service and culture is a perfect match for this vibrant, exciting destination."

Part of the Chapultepec Uno mixed use project, the hotel will be located at the intersection of Avenida Reforma and Circuito Interior in Mexico City.

After completion of the project, the structure will feature 58 floors and 1.1 million square feet of space.
