History
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]
