RIU Hotels & Resorts is a Spanish hotel chain founded by the Riu family as a small holiday firm in 1953, the first hotel being Riu San Francisco in Mallorca. The RIU Hotels & Resorts chain is still owned by the Riu family's third generation. In 2010, RIU Hotels & Resorts launched their new line of Riu Plaza city hotels. These are located in the centre of large cities and cater for both business travellers and tourists.
Playa Hotels and Resorts has purchased the five-diamond Ritz-Carlton Rose Hall resort in Montego Bay, a 5,000 acre ocean-front luxury resort owned by the Rollins family with Urban Development Corporation as minority partner. The 427-room resort has been on the sale block for the last nine years. Sources say the resort was sold for more than US$70 million. The Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company has operated the property for the last 12 years. Under the purchase agreement, US-based but Spanish-influenced Playa will rename the resort. In the past, this has been a bone of contention since it means the disappearance of the high-profile Ritz-Carlton brand from Jamaica.
