Travel Tip: Riu Hotel

Attention: Will you be staying at a RIU hotel on your next visit to Mexico? According to new goverment legislation all Riu Hotels Resorts in Mexico will be unable to receive cash payments in US dollars. All payments are now required in Mexican pesos in order to be received in the resort.The new regulation also indicates that it won´t be possible to provide currency exchange services in USD within the resort anymore.

Make sure you exchange your money at an exchange house in Mexico or at the airport. However, check with your home airport before you depart to Mexico for a better rate rather than doing it at the airport in Mexico.
