The Hotel Formentor in Pollensa is looking for staff. The new Hotel Four Seasons Resort Mallorca is organising a talent day for staff at the new-look hotel which will open later this year. Microsoft tycoon Bill Gates is one of the chief shareholders in the Canadian-based Four Seasons Group.
The Hotel Formentor has been extensively refurbised and in some cases rebuilt trasforming it into one of the most luxurious hotels on the island. Four Seasons Resort Mallorca will boast an array of accommodations tastefully restored to the highest sustainable standards, preserving its natural surroundings.
Since 2007, Bill Gates (through Cascade Investment) and Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal (through Kingdom Holding Company) have been majority owners of the company. As of January 2022, Cascade Investment owns 71.25% and Kingdom Holding Company owns 23.75%.

Lisa JuliaIllegal for some, not for the opposition on the Pollensa town hall council. You sound like someone who works for the State and can’t be sacked or have a wealthy daddy. Obviously jobs for the people or businesses ( the guests will no doubt dine out in the Port) are non of your concern, as previously shown with your comment about Cruise liners. It may be of interest for you to know that since the hotel has started advertising for staff, the salaries being offered in the local catering and hotel industry have risen by more than the inflation rate, which must be a good thing for the average working man and woman, and obviously for the taxman as well.
Good for them. They'll have done their market research to support such a big investment. The island could certainly use a 6 star hotel complex to attract A-listers. Hotel Formentor has a rich heritage of clients over the decades; famous names from royalty, hollywood and society. Let's hope that the new hotel lives up to its promise.
That's an eyesore.
Or, put another way, do you want to join a company that builds illegally, destroys sites of national heritage and then pays fines to cover their wrongs? Doesn’t bode well for their attitude to staff.
So, what are we saying? That because Bill and some Prince are involved no-one should want to work there? Personally I’m not a great fan of this so called philanthropist and I know that this rag is generally know in an affectionate way “the bullsh1t”, but it has to be said that this article is the real thing….. total BullSh1t! Whatever happened to real reporting.
