Meliá Hotels International is once again included in the 2025 ranking of the World's Most Trustworthy Companies

Meliá Hotels International, the leading Spanish hotel chain and third in Europe, once again stands out as one of the companies that inspires the most trust among its guests, employees, and investors. For the second consecutive year, the Group has been included among the 1,000 most trusted companies in the world across the various branches and categories of business selected in 20 countries, ranking third in the world in its "travel, dining, and leisure" category.

Trust is an intangible asset increasingly valued by companies and their customers, providing them with peace of mind regarding the product or experience they acquire and fostering more loyal and repeat customers. Likewise, investor confidence in a company is an essential factor for its sound financial performance, and in today's turbulent work environment, it is crucial for a company to have the trust of its employees. To highlight those companies that have proven to be the most trustworthy for their customers and employees, the prestigious magazine Newsweek presents this ranking in collaboration with Statista, a leading global consultancy in business statistics and rankings. The full list is available on the Newsweek website.

“Meliá is honored to be included among the World's Most Trustworthy Companies 2025 ranking for another year,” said Gabriel Escarrer Jaume, President and CEO of Meliá Hotels International. “As a company with strong family roots and values, the trust we've built over our 70-year history is the foundation on which our relationships with our guests, investors, hotel owners, and partners are built, and what increasingly defines our uniqueness.”

The companies included in the 2025 ranking were selected through an independent survey based on a sample of more than 65,000 participants across 23 industries and 20 target countries. In the nearly 200,000 evaluations conducted, respondents rated companies they knew and based in their country based on the following three dimensions: investor trust, customer trust, and employee trust. A social media listening analysis was also conducted for companies that received a sufficient number of evaluations, including sentiment analysis toward the company across various digital platforms, differentiating between mentions as positive, neutral, or negative.
