The first Sofitel in Mexico stacks French polish on a glass tower over Reforma, and its restaurant Bajel quietly made the Michelin Guide.
WHY IT’S WORTH IT
1Concept and arrival. The first Sofitel to open in Mexico, a 42-floor glass tower that folds a restored 1983 building into a modern luxury statement on Paseo de la Reforma.
2Cultural moment. Its in-house restaurant Bajel, led by chef Alonso Vidal, landed in the first Michelin Guide Mexico and held the listing again the next year, rare for a hotel dining room.
3Address and views. Cuauhtemoc, on the city's grandest boulevard, with rooftop and upper-floor sightlines over the Angel and the skyline.
