Sustainability Report 2022
For the first time in the history of RIU Hotels, in 2022 we temporarily closed all hotels due to COVID-19. An unprecedented situation that created an uncertain future full of challenges for the company and our team. However, despite the economic impact of the pandemic, we maintained our commitment to all partners in the third sector, focusing our support on the community and children, and adapting our programs to new social problems.
This Sustainability Report is the testimony of how we faced this pandemic, with integrity, courage and unity, always focusing on people and their well-being.
