MONTERREY, Mexico—Kimpton, part of IHG Hotels & Resorts’ luxury and lifestyle portfolio, announces plans for a new boutique luxury hotel and branded residences in Monterrey. As the brand’s sixth property planned for Mexico, Kimpton Monterrey will be located in the new-build mixed-use Torre Rise, set to be the tallest tower in Latin America. It is slated to open in 2026.
Owned by Grupo Alora and operated by Marca Hotel Solutions, Kimpton Monterrey will feature 120 guestrooms as well as 60 private residences. In addition to panoramic views of the surrounding city and Cerro de la Silla, Sierra Madre de Chipinque and Cerro de las Mitras mountains, the hotel will offer an array of experiences for visitors and locals alike. An onsite wellness center will include an indoor pool, sauna, and massage treatment rooms. Kimpton Monterrey’s inspired restaurant and bar concepts will include a full-service restaurant as well as a lobby lounge on the 16th floor. Additional amenities will include a designated space to host meetings and social gatherings. As with all Kimptons, the property will also offer perks such as Kimpton Kickstart morning coffee and tea service, Kimpton Social evening social hour, a “Forgot It? We’ve Got It!” program, in-room yoga mats, and pet-friendly policies.
“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, said. “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.”
As Mexico’s second-largest economy, Monterrey is an international business hub balanced by natural surroundings and a vibrant cultural scene. The Kimpton Monterrey is located near the city’s galleries, shopping destinations, major businesses, and companies’ headquarters, as well as medical centers. Situated within Torre Rise, hotel guests and residents alike will also have access to the skyscraper’s vast amenities and experiences, including a sky deck, performance center, elevated park, luxury retail, and more.
“We are elated with this new signing for several reasons,” said Alejandro Chávez, CEO of Grupo Alora, said. “First and foremost, it strengthens our relationship with IHG Hotels & Resorts, with whom we are already partners in several properties. Second, it will introduce another fantastic IHG brand, Kimpton, to Monterrey—an established economic engine in Mexico that is increasingly becoming a lifestyle and leisure destination. Finally, this partnership provides us with the opportunity to debut not only a world-renowned luxury brand in our city, within a spectacular state-of-the-art mixed-use development, but also an innovative branded residences offering.”
In Mexico, Kimpton Monterrey will join the Kimpton Virgilio in Mexico City, Kimpton Mas Olas Resort & Spa in Todos Santos, and Kimpton Aluna Resort in Tulum. Forthcoming openings include Kimpton Tres Rios Riviera Maya, the brand’s first-ever all-inclusive resort, and another boutique hotel in Mexico City’s Polanco neighborhood. The Kimpton brand currently has 78 hotels open globally, with 57 projects in the pipeline.
