The JW Marriott Hotel Lima, known locally as the Marriott Hotel (Spanish: Hotel Marriott), is a modern building complex and five-star[8] high-rise hotel located next to Larcomar, at the intersection of José Larco Avenue and the Malecón de Miraflores in Miraflores District, Lima, Peru.

Belonging to the Marriott Hotels & Resorts hotel chain, the two-tower complex houses the hotel, a casino, restaurants and an office building known as the Torre Parque Mar, which houses the embassies of the Netherlands, the United Arab Emirates, and the United Kingdom.

History

[edit]

The hotel was built between 1998 and 2000 next to Salazar Park, part of the esplanade of Miraflores. It was inaugurated in July 2000 as the Lima Marriott Hotel & Stellaris Casino. This name remained until January 2001, changing to JW Marriott Hotel & Stellaris Casino Lima until the casino's sale in March 2006, when it took its current name.[9] In 2007, it was chosen as the chain's hotel of the year.[10]

In 2002, the United Kingdom opened its embassy in the office building's 22nd floor.[11] In 2016, the United Arab Emirates opened its embassy in its 11th floor.[12][13] The Netherlands also has an embassy on the building's 13th floor.[14]

In 2008, the hotel hosted U.S. President George W. Bush during his visit to that year's APEC summit.[15] In 2024, it hosted Joe Biden during that year's summit.[16]

In 2019, Grupo Breca acquired 100% of the shares owned by Inversiones La Rioja S.A., thus acquiring the hotel.[17]
