Marriott�s Second JW Marriott Opens in Mexico City

Where: Av. Santa Fe 160, Col Santa Fe , Mexico City, Mexico, Distrito F

The JW Marriott Mexico City Santa Fe recently opened in a primo location in the city�s newest upscale neighborhood. With 221 rooms, could it give the original JW Marriot Mexico City a run for its money? That hotel was, after all, voted �Best Overall Hotel in Mexico� by Cond� Nast readers. Only time will tell....

The JW Marriott Mexico City Santa Fe has some great modern design features, but can best be described as quietly elegant. There aren�t any big, splashy features that scream �look at me� but everywhere you turn there's beautiful design. Rooms are decorated in warm neutrals with all the mod cons we would expect at the five-star level.

The hotel has two restaurants: Quattro Gastronomia Italiana which, obviously, serves regional Italian food. Then there's C�a, which professes to serve �International� cuisine but leans towards Mexican (excellent!). Note to all hoteliers: It's okay to have a fine-dining local cuisine restaurant in your hotel. Onsite there's also an outdoor pool, fitness center and spa.

Right outside the hotel's doors are a variety of restaurants, bars, boutiques and international office towers amidst the hub-bub of the financial district. So, if you�re in Mexico City on business, this hotel is a good choice for your stay.

In terms of rates, we find that looking on Marriott�s online site to be a bit tricky, so look around for the best price. For instance, if you book the JW Experience rate in July, it quotes $270 USD per night but, in fact, that rate lowers during your stay to $180 USD per night, making it a sweet $225 per night when you average it out over four days.
