De Palladium a Ramat: Marc Rahola Matutes y su apuesta por emprender fuera del grupo hotelero familiar

Marc Rahola Matutes, born in Barcelona in 1974, started his career working as a telephone assistant in the Fiesta Hotel Don Toni on Ibiza's beach. He later worked at various hotels and even sold CDs in reception, remembering a vinyl from the Hotel Costes in Paris. Rahola's father insisted on paying for his first guitar, which he still plays today, finding satisfaction in it.

At 25, he joined his uncle's hotel group, Palladium, where he began his career in finance and stayed for several years. Rahola's passion for hoteliering led him to purchase and manage the Aire Ocean Drive in Ibiza, a 40-room hotel without a pool, open year-round to create unique experiences like those in "The Great Gatsby." Two years later, he founded Ramat, a group encompassing 15 hotels across various brands, as well as two branded residences named The White Angel and A:B:C.
