Bristol
Bristol is a hotel in the Cuauhtémoc neighborhood of Mexico City, a short walk from Paseo de la Reforma. It offers several room categories, from standard rooms to penthouse suites, and has an on-site restaurant named Río 17.
The hotel opened in 1970 and has been part of the urban fabric of central Mexico City ever since. It has been updated over the decades while keeping the character it had when it first opened.
The hotel sits in the Cuauhtémoc neighborhood, where wide boulevards run alongside old residential buildings and corner shops. Stepping outside, guests find street food stalls, flower sellers, and the everyday rhythm of central Mexico City.
The central location puts many of the city's main attractions, restaurants, and shops within walking distance. Visiting on a weekday tends to be calmer, as the Reforma corridor is busier on weekends with local crowds.
The restaurant Río 17 takes its name directly from the hotel's street address on Río Sena. This kind of address-as-name is a common local practice in Mexico City's Cuauhtémoc neighborhood, where many streets are named after rivers.
