Portugal: Pestana Hotel Group has announced announce the opening of the first Pestana CR7hotel on 1 July in Funchal, in Madeira.
The opening marks the first property resulting from the partnership between Dionísio Pestana and Cristiano Ronaldo, who both hail from Madeira.
The boutique hotel combines “Art Deco with contemporary style and is designed with the modern day millennial traveller in mind, allowing them to stay connected to the world throughout their stay”.
High-speed Wi-Fi will be available in all indoor and outdoor spaces and each room will include Apple TV as well as Bluetooth audio and HDMI connections.
Pestana CR7 Funchal will feature 49 keys with 25 CR type rooms, 23 CR superior rooms and one CR7 Suite. The CR7 Suite will include a Playstation 4, virtual reality glasses and games, and even equipment for cardio workouts complete with a self-developed workout plan.
Facilities include a rooftop pool and deck, lounge bar, restaurant, outdoor gym and sauna.
Dionísio Pestana, president of Pestana Hotel Group, said: “This is an achievement that makes us all very proud. It’s a dream come true in the city that is the birthplace of the Pestana Group – and my own – and reflects our innovation capability.”
Ronaldo said: “This is a winning team, a winning project! The huge hotel management experience of the Pestana Group guarantees the quality of this product that we are developing together. It has been a huge challenge for me to enter a new area in which I always had an interest and curiosity. I cannot wait to go to sleep in my suite at Pestana CR7 Funchal in my hometown.”
The next Pestana CR7 is scheduled to open in Lisbon later this year, with two more to follow in Madrid and New York in 2017.
