Le Méridien Mexico City Reforma
Mexico City, Mexico · Le Méridien · Accessible Luxury
Facing the Glorieta de Colón, the green glass tower at Paseo de la Reforma 69 still stands on the steel frame of the old Secretaría de Recursos Hidráulicos, the ministry building Enrique del Moral and Mario Pani designed in the 1940s. The 1985 earthquake took the concrete and left the skeleton, and Embassy Suites finally opened the rebuilt hotel in 2006. In October 2012 it became Le Méridien, about 160 suites, in Tabacalera.
- 160 rooms
- Opened 2006

About Le Méridien Mexico City Reforma
- On 1 December 2012, protesters angry about Enrique Peña Nieto's election broke glass on the new façade, weeks after Le Méridien had taken the keys.
- Suites start at about 45 square meters, with a separate living room and windows built to quiet Reforma. La Gloriosa, the restaurant now, serves on an outdoor terrace.
- The brand's Unlock Art program still hands two guests a pass to the Museo Tamayo, a short ride along the same avenue.
History
The tower at Paseo de la Reforma 69 began as offices for the Secretaría de Recursos Hidráulicos, the ministry building Enrique del Moral and Mario Pani designed in the 1940s. The 1985 earthquake damaged the concrete. The steel frame was kept, the reconstruction stalled, and Embassy Suites opened the rebuilt hotel in 2006. Starwood, Trinity Investments, and Terra Investments reopened it as Le Méridien in October 2012, with about 160 suites. The restaurant at that debut was C'est la Vie. The restaurant today is La Gloriosa.
The setting
Reforma 69 faces the Glorieta de Colón, in Colonia Tabacalera, where the avenue is still the city's civic spine. The Alameda and Bellas Artes are the walk toward the Centro. The Angel of Independence is the other direction. Government offices sit close, which is why the block feels like a weekday even when the monuments are out.
