Cristiano Ronaldo recently opened a stylish, football-themed hotel in Portugal's Madeira, where guests can lounge by a rooftop infinity pool, exercise in an open-air gym, and take a bath in a room designed to look like a football field.
The 48-room Pestana CR7 is partially-owned by the Real Madrid footballer, who grew up where the hotel is based in Funchal, Madeira. It has plenty of sports memorabilia on display, with Ronaldo's shirts, trophies, and trainers dotted around the hotel.
Despite its luxury feel, the hotel is surprisingly affordable with standard guest rooms beginning at £184 per night.
Pestana CR7 is planning to expand the hotel to other cities including Lisbon, Madrid, and New York City, according to Travel + Leisure.
Take a look inside the hotel below:
Welcome to Pestana CR7, located 20 minutes from Madeira's Cristiano Ronaldo Airport (formerly known as Santa Catarina Airport).
The lobby has a sleek decor with quirky features, like this hand-shaped seat, reminiscent of a boutique hotel. Guests can check in here, or via an app.
After taking a private elevator, guests walk along a corridor carpeted to look like a football field to get to their rooms. Ronaldo, who can be seen celebrating his awesomeness at the end of the hall, is also there to greet guests.
Most guests will check in to a standard CR Room, which starts from £184 per night. As well as the usual amenities, all rooms feature 48-inch HD TVs, in-room yoga mats, and mood lighting.
Those who upgrade to a CR Superior Room, which costs from £231 per night, can recharge their devices with USB plugs and enjoy views of the harbour and bay from their window.
The most expensive room available, the CR7 Suite, costs £580 per night. Those willing to pay more benefit from the most space the hotel has to offer, with a living room and two HD TVs, as well as the best view.
In the bathroom, guests can look into Ronaldo's eyes to check their makeup.
Or take a bath in what feels like the middle of a stadium, surrounded by green textured walls that mimic the grass on a football field.
The football theme continues in the communal areas, in the lounge and sports bar, where Ronaldo's favourite quote: "To be the best, you need the best," is illuminated on the wall.
The hotel takes its commitment to sports seriously. There's even an open-air gym with a custom "Get in Shape" workout curated by Ronaldo himself to get guests moving.
For those looking to relax, there's a rooftop infinity pool with sea views, a Jacuzzi, and sauna.
After checking out, guests can visit a museum dedicated to Ronaldo right next door, and pick up a souvenir from the gift shop to take home with them.
