Messi buys the Himalaia hotel in the Baqueira Beret ski resort

Published: Jun 16, 2020

As of the next ski season, those who go to Baqueira Beret will be able to say that they have stayed at the Messi hotel if they choose one of the Himalaia's rooms. It is one of the four-star hotels located in the rue area, the most luxurious hotel area located at the foot of the slopes of the Val d'Aran winter resort.

This is what the Diari Segre de Lleida tells it, citing well-informed sources from the Val d'Aran, who assure that the establishment that until now was managed by Pierre Vacances is being transferred these days to Leo Messi.

The Argentinean adventure in the hotel sector began in March 2018 when he joined the Majestic brand of the Soldevilla Ferrer family to win the Vivé in the Pitiusian islands. They also changed the name to MiM Ibiza (Majestic i Messi). In this way, he followed in the footsteps of former Madrid player Cristiano Ronaldo, who also has investments in the hotel and real estate sector under the CR7 brand .

Both of them also have investments in the real estate sector, and they own several residential and office buildings.

Messi's intention is to continue buying emblematic establishments and expand his portfolio in the hotel sector. Last year he took over his second hotel, this time in Sitges. He paid for 30 million euros and transferred the management to the Majestic company. They renamed it MiM Sitges again .

It is not known if the Himalaia will also change its name, but everything seems to indicate that for the next ski season the hotel will be renamed MiM Baqueira.

The step taken by Leo Messi consolidates the Baqueira Beret resort as the most exclusive ski destination of choice. Just a few weeks ago and in full health alert for the coronavirus pandemic, a 233-square-meter duplex was sold with four car park spaces, four storage rooms and four ski lockers, in addition to direct access to the gondola, for a whopping 1 , 9 million euros. A record , since never had paid so much for a house in that ski resort of the Val d'Aran.

The house was sold electronically since it was not possible to make trips or meetings. So the buyer or buyer had to see his future accommodation by photos sent online and video calls.
