Cristiano Ronaldo to Open New Hotel in Morocco, Expanding Business Empire

Tuesday 12 February 2019, by Said

International football star Cristiano Ronaldo is expected in Morocco in the very near future for the inauguration of one of his hotels. The player invests in many fields to prepare for his retirement.

This trip, which has not yet been officially announced but is reported by Spanish media, would allow the Juventus Turin player to personally present a project that is close to his heart in a city he appreciates. Ronaldo used to make quite frequent trips to Morocco aboard his private jet, which had even earned him reprimands from his former coach Zinedine Zidane.

In a press release published a few months ago, his company Prestana had explained its choice to invest in Marrakech by the presence of many showbiz stars on site and by the popularity of the ochre city among foreign tourists.

The two units that should be inaugurated during this year are "Pestana CR7" and "Pestana Marrakech Medina" which have 164 and 224 rooms respectively. The city of Casablanca already has a CR7 hotel and the city of Agadir is already being mentioned for a future installation.
