1959 — Castro Construcciones
He returns to Spain and founds Castro Construcciones in Barcelona, laying the foundations of what is now Castro Group.
Developers and builders of our own projects
We do not build for third parties. Every project begins with our own vision: we identify the opportunity, develop it, direct its construction and then manage or bring the resulting asset to market.
We develop
We conceive and develop our own projects.
We build
We directly control their execution.
We manage or sell
We retain or bring to market the assets we have created.
More than twenty hotels built across Spain
Castro Construcciones’ experience includes more than twenty hotels developed for the Group across Spain. This trajectory brings together development, construction and a long-term ownership perspective.

Hesperia Tower
Built by Castro Construcciones, Hesperia Tower is one of the most recognisable projects in this history. These photographs document the assembly and lifting of its distinctive glazed dome—an operation of considerable technical complexity completed during the final phase of construction.
