St. Regis Mexico City
Paseo de la Reforma 439, Mexico City, 06500, Mexico
Why We Like It
As you approach this skyscraper, you’ll feel small, but there are big treats within, including an indoor pool with views, a state-of-the-art gym (yet more views), a helipad, multiple dining venues, and a reservation-only Champagne table. The building itself now stands among Mexico City’s monuments and takes its visual cues from the nearby Diana the Huntress statue, echoing her bow and arrow. Celebs like Justin Theroux have reportedly checked in, and frankly, you’ll feel just as starry-eyed when you see the view from your room. The St. Regis Mexico City takes up 15 floors of the building and is pet-friendly, family-friendly, and has some seriously impressive lodgings, including the city’s first suite with an outdoor infinity pool.
Fodor's Expert Review
The intimate layout and bespoke service here provide the ultimate sanctuary from urban chaos—despite being in one of the city's busiest sections and in one of the tallest towers. A compilation of work by world-renowned architects, interior designers, and artists, the hotel is a stunning representation of modern elegance. The well-appointed rooms all have superb views of the city, personal butler service, and double-paned windows, which eliminate almost all external noise. A cocktail on the palm-tree-lined terrace of the King Cole Bar is a great way to wrap up a business meeting or relax after a day of sightseeing. For a true luxury experience, reserve a spot at La Table Krug, a culinary laboratory dubbed \"Mexico's smallest restaurant,\" where you can enjoy an eight-course meal with Krug champagne pairings.

Room
The St. Regis Mexico City rooms are in a league of their own as far as views are concerned. All 189 have floor-to-ceiling glass that invites the skyline in, and guests rest easy on delicate Frette linens. There’s smart tech for everything from ambient lighting and air conditioning to privacy settings, so you don’t have to leave the bed to tweak the mood. Swathed in a palette of velvety purples and warm grey tones, the rooms are elegant without being ostentatious.
All accommodations, whether a Deluxe, Grand Deluxe, or Executive Suite, have dedicated workspaces (a must for remote workers and business travelers). They also have luggage racks, Nespresso coffee makers, and flat-screen TVs.
One of the top choices is the newly renovated St. Regis Suite, which clocks in at over 3,000 square feet. It comes complete with a private dining area, kitchen, exercise machines, home office, and king bedroom, all with sweeping views of Chapultepec Castle, the Angel of Independence, and Diana the Huntress herself.
The newest lodgings are the eight garden suites by PGM Arquitectura that debuted in 2024 with hot tubs, pergolas, and private gardens. If you’re really pushing the boat out, the Caroline Astor Suite is a showstopper with its very own outdoor infinity pool.
Tip The six accessible rooms are Deluxe and Grand Deluxe rooms with roll-in showers and bath grab bars.
Bathroom
The marble-clad bathrooms are spa-like spaces. You’ll find a double vanity, a separate water closet, a deep soaking tub, and a rainfall shower with formidable water pressure. Should you wish to catch the news or even a rom-com while brushing your teeth, in-mirror television screens add a touch of playfulness and practicality. Toiletries are full-size Remède products, generously replenished by housekeeping.
Lobby
Doormen greet you with warmth and bellhops swiftly take charge of your luggage at the hotel entrance on Paseo de la Reforma, but the actual lobby is on the third floor (fret not, there’s an elevator). It's not a grand gathering space but more a graceful waypoint where you’ll be offered a glass of champagne. The real social energy flows at the King Cole Bar.
Tip If you’d like to make a splashier entrance, you may utilize the for-guests-only helipad.
Pool
The hotel’s 15th floor is a panorama-meets-pampering trifecta of pool, spa, and fitness center. The indoor pool itself is heated and has an infinity-like edge. With floor-to-ceiling windows, this is a great spot for golden hour gazing.
Spa
Soothe your physical maladies at the Remède Spa, which has seven private treatment rooms and more than 18 facial types on the menu. Lush treatment options include the indulgent 75-minute Four Hands Symphony or the deeply grounding 120-minute Pre-Hispanic Ritual. In addition, 90 or 120-minute couples’ massages are also offered. There is a full-blown salon as well that does everything from bridal hair and eyelash application to kids’ haircuts.
Gym
Exercise machines are positioned so your cardio comes with panoramic views at the fully equipped fitness center on the 15th floor. Welcome news for Pilates lovers, Reformer machines are on hand.
Tip As part of the city’s Muévete en Bici program, Paseo de la Reforma closes to cars on Sundays from 8 am to 2 pm. This is the perfect time to explore the area around the hotel on two legs or two wheels.
Dining
Diana, the hotel’s signature spot, is a loved-by-locals destination restaurant in Mexico City owing to the views, modern Mexican cuisine, and robust collection of bottles in the glass-walled wine cellar. It’s also where Sunday brunch takes place, and you can go for a light meal, a cocktail brunch, or a Veuve Clicquot-fueled fiesta.
Carnivores are, unsurprisingly, well taken care of at Animal, the steakhouse with the most literal name in town. Sushi Tatsugoro is an intimate omakase experience, while The Glass House Café serves gourmet bites and flaky viennoiserie.
For something more exclusive (and effervescent), La Table Krug is Mexico’s only Krug Chef’s Table. This eight-seat room offers a four to six-course haute cuisine tasting menu paired with rare Krug champagnes. You’ll need to reserve at least 48 hours in advance.
All the hotel’s restaurants are also open to non-guests. For those for whom privacy is a steady concern, in-room dining is available around the clock.
Drinking
An echo of its New York namesake, the King Cole Bar has mirror-lined walls, piano key-inspired floors, and indoor and outdoor seating. Before checking out, you should sample the Sangrita María, the hotel’s signature take on the Bloody Mary, which was purportedly first concocted at the original St. Regis in the 1930s. Here, vodka bows out in favor of smoky mezcal, and the tomato base is enlivened with pasilla chili. For bubbly theatrics, swing by the hotel lobby on a Wednesday at 6:30 p.m. for the Champagne sabering ritual.
Butler Service
Butler service isn’t just reserved for the top suites; it’s available to every guest, in every room category, around the clock.
Families
A complimentary kids’ club is open daily from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m., welcoming children ages 5 to 11 with toys, games, and creative activities under professional supervision. Parents with tiny travelers in tow can request cribs, rollaway beds, and diapers via their butlers.
Mexico City Events
When Mexico City is draped in marigolds for Día de Muertos or roaring with Formula 1 engines in the fall, The St. Regis Mexico City offers front-row seats to the spectacles. The hotel is a place to possibly spot some racers, and it’s within easy reach of the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez for the Mexican Grand Prix by car. Also, Paseo de la Reforma is actually part of the Day of the Dead parade route. To celebrate, the hotel throws a festive parade-day brunch at Diana Restaurant.
What's Nearby
Getting Around
Paseo de la Reforma is a stately thoroughfare with some of the city’s most iconic monuments. Walk out of the hotel to explore the immediate world outside on streets named after cities—Londres, Hamburgo, Biarritz, and the like.
Just a 25-minute stroll or 10-minute drive away lies Bosque de Chapultepec, a sprawling urban forest that’s several times bigger than New York’s Central Park. Inside its leafy borders, you’ll find a lineup of world-class museums including Museo de Arte Moderno, Museo Nacional de Antropología, and Museo Tamayo. Roma and Condesa, with their boutiques, bars, and beautiful streets, can be reached within half an hour by taxi.
Restaurants
One of the top restaurants in the area is Ling Ling by Hakkasan, a six-minute stroll away. Go for the yummy Asian bites and 230-meter-high views. El Bajío is great for trying Mexican staples like mole, tostadas, carnitas, and a juicy plantain empanada. It has outposts all around the city, but the Reforma branch is 20 minutes away on foot. A quirky café to check out in the vicinity (eight-minute walk) is Obscura Café, where the croissants and baguettes are black and pink.
