Iberostar Hotels & Resorts (Spanish: Iberostar Hoteles y Apartamentos S.L.) is a hotel chain based in Spain, specializing in 4 and 5 star hotels. It is owned by Grupo Iberostar, which also owns Iberostate Golf, Villas & Condos and Iberoservice, its incoming tourism division
The company's trademark is "first line" hotels (meaning directly on the beach), surrounded by gardens.
Iberostar's head office is in Mallorca (Spain) and hotels that operate under their brand name are located in the continents of Europe, North America, Latin America, and Africa.
The company temporarily closed the Rose Hall Beach Hotel (but not the adjoining Rose Hall Suites Hotel or Rose Hall Grand Hotel), one of its resorts in Jamaica. As of May 31, 2010, the Rose Hall Beach Hotel reopened.
Travel Trade Gazette, a U.K.-based travel industry publication, named the company "Best Hotel Chain of the Year" in 2009. One of its directors is Manny Fontenla-Novoa, who was also the Chief Executive of Thomas Cook Group.
On April 7, 2010, Iberostar announced that Antonio Banderas would be the new face of a global campaign to promote the company's hotels and resorts.
