Kimpton, part of IHG Hotels & Resorts’ luxury and lifestyle portfolio, is adding to its Mexico portfolio and has announced plans for a new hotel and branded residences in Monterrey. This will be the brand’s sixth property planned for Mexico.
Kimpton Monterrey will be located in the new-build mixed-use Torre Rise, which is expected to be the tallest tower in Latin America. The boutique luxury hotel and residences are slated to open in 2026.
Owned by Grupo Alora and operated by Marca Hotel Solutions, Kimpton Monterrey will feature 120 guestrooms and 60 private residences, offering panoramic views of the city, Cerro de la Silla, Sierra Madre de Chipinque and Cerro de las Mitras mountains.
The hotel will offer an onsite wellness center with an indoor pool, sauna and massage treatment rooms. Dining options include a full-service restaurant and a lobby lounge on the 16th floor. For meetings, banquets and events, the hotel will have a dedicated 1,244-square-meter space.
“We are delighted to continue growing our luxury and lifestyle presence within Mexico and Kimpton Monterrey is poised to bring its distinct perspective, refined style and innovative restaurants and bars to this key international market,” said Leanne Harwood, SVP and managing director of luxury & lifestyle Americas, IHG Hotels & Resorts. “We are also especially excited to build upon our existing collaboration with Grupo Alora, working together to provide travelers with the inspired experiences and human hospitality for which Kimpton is celebrated globally.”
Mexico’s second largest economy, Monterrey is home to a thriving international business hub accompanied by a vibrant cultural scene. Kimpton Monterrey is located in the city’s center, close to city’s galleries, shopping destinations, major businesses and companies’ headquarters and medical centers. Located within Torre Rise, hotel guests can access the skyscraper’s amenities and experiences, which include a sky deck, performance center, elevated park and luxury retail.
Besides Kimpton Monterrey, Kimpton is set to open Kimpton Tres Rios Riviera Maya, the brand’s first all-inclusive resort, and another boutique hotel in Mexico City’s Polanco neighborhood. Currently, the Kimpton brand has 78 hotels open globally, with 57 projects in the pipeline.
