The Best Business Hotels In US Cities Preferred by Latinos

Bloomberg Línea — When it comes to doing business, especially outside their home area, executives look for key comforts and amenities to make their stays a business success.

The hotel of choice plays a key role in business travel and should have specific features and amenities.

Some of these include: fast and reliable Internet connection for work or videoconferencing; functional work spaces either in the room or in common areas of the hotel; and a business center equipped with printing, scanning and photocopying services, as well as courier services and assistance in organizing meetings or events.

In addition to work amenities, there are recreational amenities, ideal for those who can mix work with some leisure and entertainment. A convenient location close to shopping areas, financial districts, convention centers and airports, as well as culinary options and diversity, preferably within the hotel, are indispensable for this purpose, since time is very tight.

The 45 Best Business Hotels in Latin America

Here are some of the best business hotel options in three key US cities:

Miami

In southeast Florida, Miami is precisely one of the cities that offer accommodation with services and amenities that allow business travelers to work efficiently. Its strategic location, as a gateway to Latin America and the Caribbean, has positioned this city as an important business and international trade center.

Miami has invested significantly in its hotel infrastructure to cater to business travelers and boasts a wide selection of renowned accommodation options. Here are some of them:

Mandarin Oriental

This luxurious property is adjacent to Miami’s business district and located on the exclusive island of Brickell Key. The five-star hotel offers breathtaking views of the city and the ocean. With several awards under its belt (Condé Nast Readers’ Choice, Forbes, Fodor’s, etc.), it is a favorite destination for leisure, business and ‘bleisure’ travelers in the self-described gateway to Latin America.

Four Seasons Hotel Miami

In recent years, Brickell has become an area of high added value and the financial center of the region, and the Four Seasons Miami is one of its greatest attractions, as it is located in the epicenter of business activity. Like other properties of the brand, the Miami property offers its basket of high-level services to corporate travelers, including access to conference planners. With the return and frequency of world-class events (such as the Formula 1 Grand Prix or Art Basel, as well as countless technology conferences), the location has become a hot spot for forums, conferences and exhibitions.

The Setai

Located in the heart of South Beach, The Setai is one of the most sought-after accommodation venues during Art Basel, one of the most important art fairs in the world. The hotel not only attracts business and leisure travelers, but also celebrities such as Gisele Bündchen and Kendall Jenner. But in itself, this luxury property, which takes advantage of a beautiful Art Deco building from the 1930s, is a destination in itself. Throughout its facilities, the Setai has a distinguished air of Asian design, minimalist and expressionist at the same time.

Los Angeles

On the west coast, Los Angeles, California, is an important center for a variety of industries, especially entertainment, technology, fashion, health, science, agriculture and international trade. As such, it hosts major events, conventions, trade shows and business meetings.

The city also offers a wide variety of entertainment options and tourist attractions such as Hollywood, Beverly Hills, the beaches of Santa Monica and Venice, and numerous museums and art galleries.

From luxury hotels to more affordable options, Los Angeles offers a wide variety of choices to meet the demands of business travelers.

Fairmont Century Plaza

In a city steeped in movie history, this property is one of the industry’s most popular and iconic enclaves. It was founded in 1966 and after being closed for renovation, it reopened under the Fairmont banner in 2022 at a cost of $2.5 billion. The result is a 400-room hotel that offers a totally Hollywood flavor in every corner. The hotel is a destination in itself thanks to the work of architect Minoru Yamasaki. It has also served as a location for countless Los Angeles-set films.

Loews Hollywood Hotel

A decade after the Loews Group established its brand in this iconic location, the Loews Hollywood Hotel has become a landmark for all things Tinseltown. This property offers as one of its attractions rooms with a view of the famous sign that defines the movie capital.

En el de Nueva York, la empresa tiene una alianza con el Emire State Building, lo que permite ampliar su portafolio de servicios a los huéspedes.

The Gild Hall is located in the heart of New York’s financial district, just steps from Wall Street. The hotel is the work of designer Jim Walrod, famous for his ochre tones and mix of leather and dark woods, all of which can be seen throughout the Hall’s facilities.
