“We are proud to announce the opening of the first TRYP by Wyndham hotel in Mexico, a major market of focus for our expansion plans in the region,” said Paulo Pena, president and managing director for Wyndham Hotel Group in Latin America and the Caribbean. “We are confident that this brand, globally recognized by its iconic city style and its passion for the cities in which it’s located, will continue to grow in the most important urban centers of the country, to the satisfaction of both corporate and leisure travelers.”

The property includes a fitness centre, free WiFi, a business centre and a restaurant on the top floor, among other amenities.
