In less than 8 years Sarasola, along with his husband Carlos Marrero and his friend Gorka Atorrasagasti, created a new hotel concept based on his experience for his constant travels around the world. That same formula was implemented in different areas of Spain until he decided to cross the border and now Room-Mate Hotels is steadily expanding with Kike Sarasola leading up to the last detail of each hotel. The current expansion is well designed to strongly establish in America where the goal is to reach 5 hotels in New York as well as in Chicago, Washington, Boston, Dallas, Miami, Los Angeles and San Francisco for which he keeps searching for opportunities that can be constantly adapted to the needs of Room-Mate Hotels.
