Camino Real Hotels is a Mexican-based hotel chain consisting of hotels and resorts.

[edit] History

Camino Real was the name given by 16th century Spaniards to the road that led to the capital of New Spain, today known as Mexico.

In 1958, the name Camino Real is used for the first time with the opening of the Camino Real Guadalajara hotel, one of the hotels which have recently remodeled all their rooms and their main service areas without losing the luxuriant vegetation which surrounds them.

In 1960 Banamex and a group of private investors create Hoteles Camino Real.

In 1962 an affiliation agreement is entered with Westin International Hotels (which would later become Westin), thus establishing in Mexico the first luxury hotel chain with an international representation.

In 1993 the 31-year relationship between Westin Hotels and Resort and Camino Real ends.

On June 5, 2000, Camino Real is bought by one of the country’s most important and solid groups: Grupo Empresarial Ángeles, which by acquiring Real Turismo Propietaria y Operadora, gives an important stability to the development of Hotels, making important remodeling efforts.

One of the newest Camino Real hotels is that one in San Pedro, Garza Garcia, Monterrey. Its architecture is modern but still keeps the Mexican style of most Camino Real hotels in Mexico.
