Cancun, Q.R. — Governor Mara Lezama participated in the inauguration of the Hyatt Place Cancun Airport Hotel. The new airport hotel was inaugurated Wednesday in a ribbon-cutting ceremony. On hand for the inauguration were Christophe Lorvo, Area Vice President for Mexico and General Manager of the Hyatt Regency Mexico City and Charles El-Mann, Director of Parks Hospitality Holdings.
During the ceremony, Governor Lezama noted that every investment that comes to Quintana Roo “opens a door to the well-being of our people,” and emphasized that this hotel is an example of a project with “a human face and a future for the families who depend on tourism and work every day to get ahead.”
She affirmed that Quintana Roo offers certainty and a long-term vision from a humanist government with a feminist heart that promotes growth with social justice.
She highlighted that the hotel is located in the heart of the airport area, one of the destination’s most dynamic points, which registered more than 22 million passengers from January to September.
The Governor emphasized that the new infrastructure strengthens the state’s competitiveness by expanding the tourism offerings geared toward business travelers, meetings and leisure.
“This is where shared prosperity truly comes into its own because this hotel not only opens doors for those already in the industry, but also for those seeking an opportunity to enter the workforce.
“Each new position represents economic stability, a secure income, and the possibility for more families to build a future with dignity,” explained Mara Lezama.
One of the aspects that the Governor highlighted with the most enthusiasm was that the hotel is managed by a woman, Andrea Medina, whose leadership sends an inspiring message to girls and young women in the state.
She also acknowledged the coordination with the Benito Juárez City Council and its mayor, Ana Paty Peralta, emphasizing that every advance in Cancún is based on collaborative work.
“Every action in Cancún is based on coordination, dialogue, and the vision that this municipality is the driving force of tourism in the country,” she stated.
The governor also stated that the new Hyatt Place sends a clear message to the world: “In Quintana Roo, investment is made because there is direction, certainty, and a deep commitment to inclusive development.”
She celebrated that the project will contribute to a competitive and modern state that respects its identity and is committed to sustainability.
Christophe Lorvo explained that the new Hyatt Place Cancun Airport, the first near an airport in Mexico, is strategically located just minutes from the Cancun International Airport, which caters to the business sector. He expressed his gratitude for the commitment of his team, who did an exceptional job.
He expressed his gratitude to Mara Lezama for joining them at this inauguration and for welcoming them to Cancun.
Cancun Mayor Ana Paty Peralta de la Peña said the new hotel represents new options to generate well-being and prosperity for the residents of Benito Juárez.
Bernardo Cueto Riestra, Secretary of Tourism, stated that with this new infrastructure, Quintana Roo continues to solidify its position as a leading tourist destination. He thanked the Hyatt Group for its confidence in the state and for contributing to shared prosperity.
