The wealthiest Hungarian sold two Austrian ski hotels to PM Orbán’s son-in-law

The BDPST Group, a company associated with István Tiborcz, the prime minister’s son-in-law, strengthened its position in the international hotel market. They bought two ski hotels with 43 and 91 rooms in Austria that are owned by Lőrinc Mészáros, the wealthiest Hungarian.

According to mfor.hu, the BDPST Group continued its dynamic expansion in the hotel sector by buying two hotels in the Murau ski region in Austria. The owner of the purchaser is István Tiborcz, PM Orbán’s son-in-law.

The BDPST Group entered the international market in July. They operate the Hotel Atrio del Mart (84 rooms) in Los Alcazares, Murcia region, Spain. Afterwards, Austria got into their focus.

However, the BDPST Group does not run the hotels. They have a subsidiary company for that purpose, the BDPST Hotel Management founded this month.
