It was in 2014 that the famous Juventus striker Cristiano Ronaldo succumbed to the charm of Marrakech, during a visit to his friend the Moroccan kick-boxer Badr Hari.
Much appreciated by the Moroccan public, the international footballer flies regularly to the ocher city, often accompanied by his mother Maria Dolores Dos Santos Aveiro, also bewitched by the charm of Marrakech. Ms. Dolores continues to praise the merits of the city by posting her favorite shots on the web: smiling, carrying in her hands a gigantic dish of Moroccan couscous, or even posing in front of the lens in the alleys of Jemaa El-Fna .
But the fivefold Ballon d'Or decides to anchor its presence in Marrakech, since its hotel "Pestana CR7" will soon see the light of day in Marrakech after Funchal, Lisbon, Madrid and New York. Last September, Cristiano paid a visit to the construction site of his masterpiece in Marrakech, with his partner, Georgina Rodriguez and his eldest son Cristiano Jr. The player would even have taken the opportunity to play golf at the “Royal Golf de Marrakech”.
The Hotel Pestana CR7 is located at the heart of the project “My coming” and will have 168 rooms, two restaurants, a business center and high-end private residences. It will officially open in the first quarter of 2021
