Afterward, Grupo Habita expanded its base and established 13 hotels across Mexico, with its most notable and praised property, Downtown, in Mexico City.[2][3] The company later started branching into the United States.
One of its hotels, Deseo, has been described as playing a crucial part in making the Playa del Carmen region of Mexico a hot spot for tourism.[2]
