Riande Hoteles Group history begins with the Hotel Riande Urban, founded by Don Ildefonso Riande Peña (RIP) and wife, on November 14, 1969, being one of the first and most important hotels in the city of Panama. Years later, the Hotel Riande Aeropuerto was acquired, with a strategic location just 3 minutes from the Tocumen International Airport. Today, 52 years later the chain Riande Hoteles, symbol of Panamanian hospitality, maintains its leadership and philosophy established by its founder, Mr. Ildefonso Riande; to whom an extraordinary vision is attributed. Currently the hotels continue with a family administration and maintain their tradition and infrastructure with a new and dramatic remodeling design made in 2013 which represents the launch of a new and modern branding for both hotels. In 2019, Riande Hoteles will celebrate 50 years of experience in the Panamanian hotel industry.
