Mexico, where the company currently operates 12 hotels with over 2,000 rooms, was the country selected by NH Hotel Group for the official launch of its NH Collection brand in the Americas. Today the company has six NH Collection hotels in the country between Mexico City (NH Collection Mexico City Airport T2, NH Collection Mexico City Santa Fe and NH Collection Mexico City Reforma); Monterrey (NH Collection Monterrey); and Guadalajara (NH Collection Guadalajara Providencia and NH Collection Guadalajara Centro Histórico). Recently opened, the NH Collection Guadalajara Centro Histórico stands out for its location in a beautiful old building in the historical centre of Guadalajara, close to the city’s cathedral and main avenues. This hotel, the latest to be added to the Group’s portfolio in Mexico, achieves the perfect mix of legacy architecture combined with the comfort and facilities of a modern hotel. It features spacious guest rooms with magnificent views onto the city, full-service event rooms, a restaurant serving Mexican and international cuisine and a well-appointed fitness centre.

Mexico currently has more hotels in the pipeline than any other NH Hotel Group market. More specifically, the company has seven hotels with close to 1,000 rooms under development in destinations such as Mexico City, Puebla, Monterrey, Mérida, San Luis de Potosí and León. In León, the company is due to inaugurate the new NH Collection León Poliforum this November.

“The tourism sector in Mexico is fast-growing but it is also highly competitive. The presence and strategic commitment of chains such as NH Hotel Group to Mexico and Latin America is definitely excellent news as it will allow our visitors to enjoy a premium-quality hotel offering across the country’s top cities”, remarked Enrique de la Madrid, Secretary of Tourism in the Federal Government during his presentation during the brand launch ceremony.

At this international gathering, guests were treated to a four-Michelin star gourmet experience created by Óscar Velasco and Paco Roncero´s team, two NH Hotel Group chefs with two Michelin stars apiece.
