The usual storming of the cattle occurs right at 6:30pm for first dibs on the food. Lounge food in the evenings was enough for dinner, if you wanted to stay at hotel. Plenty of restaurants in the area.
As others have noted, all the drinks are served vs the free access to drinks normally at USA Hyatts. You can order as you please with no charge at least in my experience.
I used a TSU for 5 night stay, even though they communicated ahead of time that they may be able to upgrade. However, my wife was with me so used the TSU to guarantee it.
The concierges were top notch and very responsive even via email. Honestly best concierge of any Hyatt brand in my experience (even over Park Hyatt’s).
While it is not our preferred brand (Park Hyatt), it was one of our better experiences at a Hyatt Regency outside of Asia.

Hello Everyone - Any news on the construction schedule, or if already underway, noise/complications with the new PH that's going in right next to the HR?

Been here twice in the last couple of months. Solid stay and the lounge has one of the better food offerings amongst lounges in the city. The all-day open certainly helps.
I just Google'd the Park Hyatt Mexico City info...had no idea. Read that expects to open in 2021 so construction may not even start for quite a while.

I stayed at the JW many times before Hyatt opened...I would say they are pretty much on par.
lounges have similar offerings, although last time I stayed at the JW was several years ago and I recall them only offering wine at happy hour? Had to pay for anything else, including beer. Not sure if it is still like that.
I'm at the Hyatt now, lounge offers full bar.
the pool/fitness centers are also very similar.
hope this helps

All in the same neighborhood. JW and HR are massive hotels but seem high quality. LA is much more of a boutique hotel with maybe 65 rooms? The LA is definitely a great hotel with one of my top 5 hotel showers i've ever stayed at. However, If you're looking for amenities like lounge, pool, big lobby with coffee shop, etc. then the LA is not the solution.

I'd say HR is overall a cut above LM, which is a redone Embassy Suites and operated on a bit of a shoestring. If looking at SPG properties, I'd be much more interested in St. Regis (walkable to Condesa and Roma) or the W (very close to the HR). The one really positive thing I'll say about the LM is the sound insulation is fantastic.
The JW sucks. IMO.

Would you rather be in Polanco or Colonia Juarez? Areas are pretty different. I don't much care for Polanco, but others do.

Staying here today for 11 nights, any tips? I used 2 tsus to confirm into a regency hoping to upgrade further to a diplomat suite. Has anyone had experience with this?
I read on the site description that the regency suite includes buffet breakfast is this still the case?
