Fodor's Expert Review Le Méridien Mexico City

This comfortable, all-suites hotel right in the middle of Reforma Avenue action is perfectly located to get you just about anywhere in the city fast. Formerly owned by Air France, the chain maintains an aeronautical motif, with the property's geographical coordinates embedded in the lobby floor, and a mezzanine bar named Latitude. Rooms are spacious, furnished with marble bathrooms, sleeper sofas, and flat-screen TVs.

The hotel offers two free passes to the terrific Rufino Tamayo Museum for guests.

room

Minimal and crisp, in a palette of deep grey with red accents. Superior and Corner Suites offer panoramic views through floor-to-ceiling windows (acrophobics beware), some looking to the nearby Monumento a la Revolución, which is lit up at night.

YOU SHOULD KNOW Internet is only free for Starwood Preferred Guest members.
