Riu family, and is currently owned and run by the third generation of the family. The company’s
business is focused on the holiday hotel sector and nearly 70% of its establishments offer the
renowned ‘All Inclusive by RIU’ service.
With the opening of its first city hotel in 2010, RIU extended its range of products with its own

competitors. They are the hotel chain’s most valuable asset and their greatest source of pride.
