Meeting venuesMexico City, Mexico
Mexico City's international hotels quote in pesos or dollars depending on who asks, with IVA and a lodging tax that may be inside or outside the figure, and a service charge on catering that varies by hotel. Traffic between Polanco and Santa Fe can take longer than a flight, so the district is a bigger decision than the hotel.
How Mexico City hotels quote
Per-person packages and room rates in pesos or US dollars, before 16% IVA and the local lodging tax in many quotes, with a catering service charge that varies. We fix the currency and an inclusive total before hotels quote.
We fix all of that into one per-person package, in MXN, before any hotel quotes. Hotels then compete on a number that means the same thing in every offer, and the rank you see is the rank of what you would actually pay.
Formula 1 in late October, Día de Muertos in early November and the Christmas period fill the city. Holy Week and the Easter holiday empty it. The rainy season from June to September brings afternoon storms and good rates for indoor meetings.
Market conventions, tax treatment and event dates as understood in September 2026 from published sources; they change. Every offer in an RFPVenue contest states its own tax, service and fee basis, and that is what you compare on. New to these conventions?

Venues buyers shortlist
A sample of established meeting hotels across Mexico City's districts, with the capacity figures each hotel publishes on its own site. Not a ranking, a recommendation or a partnership: when you send a brief we invite whichever comparable hotels fit it, whether or not they are listed here.
| Hotel | District | Meeting rooms | Largest room | Theatre | Banquet | Event space | Transport |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sheraton Maria Isabel Mexico City Reforma | Paseo de la Reforma, Cuauhtémoc | 29 | Independencia | 1000 | 600 | 5,191 m² | – |
| Mexico City Marriott Reforma Hotel | Paseo de la Reforma, Juárez | 15 | Diego Rivera | 500 | 400 | 1,943 m² | – |
| JW Marriott Hotel Mexico City Polanco | Polanco, Andrés Bello | 10 | Chapultepec Ballroom | 216 | 180 | 1,395 m² | – |

Figures are each hotel's published maximum for the layout, read on the date shown below; they shrink once staging, AV and catering are in the room, and hotels change them. Confirm capacity against your brief before you rely on it. For a meeting of 20 to 120 people the largest ballroom is rarely the right room; the number of meeting rooms tells you more about breakout capacity.

Room, breaks, lunch, AV, bedrooms, taxes, service and cancellation terms are locked before any hotel sees the brief. Every quote means the same thing.
We invite properties that match the brief on capacity, standard and location, including any you name. A round needs at least three comparable offers to open.
Hotels see their own rank and the price to beat, never each other. Prices can only fall. You award on best value and are under no obligation if nothing fits.
The awarded total against the average of confirmed comparable offers, hashed and printable. The booking contract stays directly between you and the hotel.
