We continue to celebrate the pinnacle of independent, luxury hospitality in all its facets.”
Located in the iconic Torre Virreyes skyscraper, colloquially known as “The Dorito” for its striking, angular silhouette, Alexander combines high design, refined amenities and impeccable attention to detail. The property offers a new level of comfort and luxury in the city, including 26 spacious suites filled with Italian furnishings, a state-of-the-art gym, Caviar Bar and curated, concierge-booked experiences from private yoga to sound healing. At Chef Gabriela Ruiz Lugo’s Carmela y Sal restaurant, fine dining meets homestyle cooking for an elevated take on traditional Mexican cuisine.
This inclusion in the LHW portfolio makes Alexander an exciting choice for any groups visiting Mexico City, and continues to strengthen the Mexican capital’s reputation worldwide for world-class luxury tourism.
