Since our inception in 1997, discovery has been the defining characteristic of Renaissance Hotels - connecting guests to the intriguing neighborhoods our hotels co-exist within through unique experiences. In fact, we created Global Day of Discovery a decade ago to celebrate those making our neighborhoods worth discovering each year.
Twenty-nine years later, a social media-fueled global desire for rarity has made local discovery par for the course at any hip hotel. So, we took a beat to think about how we could evolve. We listened to our respective neighborhoods and learned from those contributing to local culture to ascertain what they needed most. The opportunity we uncovered was right there in front of us. We could use our global platform of 175+ hotels, the inspired associates who work there, and the 5,000,000+ yearly guests to generate positive and sustained impact for our neighbors through global commerce.
And so, Global Day of Discovery evolves on November 19th, 2024 from an annual celebration to an on-going platform. Today, we’re launching R FINDS – an editorially-driven global digital marketplace where consumers can discover destination-inspired content and shop curated local goods from 175+ destinations worldwide, all available in one place.
Featuring content from wallpaper* magazine, celebrity guest editors like Chef Sophia Roe, and our own Navigators around the globe – the platform showcases our commitment to discovery every day and seamlessly drives commerce to the locals making our destinations worth discovering (there’s that impact).
So, whether you’re looking to plan your next adventure, or simply didn’t have enough room in your suitcase on the last, R FINDS by Renaissance Hotels connects you to the most intriguing neighborhood finds from around the world – all in one place.
Welcome to R FINDS - a global marketplace for local discoveries created by Renaissance Hotels.
