Hotel News
Our story began in 1960 when Magdala Castro founded Hotelnews magazine, bringing content to the Brazilian tourism and hospitality industry. It was believed that the market lacked information and experiences that could expand its business activities.
Taking advantage of opportunities, two years later the Equipotel trade fair was created, focusing on the hotel and foodservice segment. It became a national benchmark, growing with each edition and appreciated by all participants. In 2012, it was sold to Reed Exhibitions, which continues to hold its editions annually.
Today, Hotelnews is the leading multiplatform content provider on hospitality in Brazil, encompassing a print and digital magazine accessible on our website and app, a news portal focused on the tourism and hotel trade, and a blog about hospitality experiences for the general public and the trade.
