Who Is Mr. Rosen?
The beginning of the Rosen story starts with Rosen Inn International.
In 1974, Mr. Harris Rosen took a leap of faith in buying this hotel at a time when International Drive was still in the middle of swampland and forest and during a historic oil embargo. For years Mr. Rosen ran the hotel as the front desk manager, the landscaper, the chef, and as security with his trusty sidekick Rinny, his canine companion. Over the years, his staff grew, and so did the number of Rosen hotels. Today, seven Orlando hotels run under Rosen Hotels & Resorts once led by Harris Rosen. Learn more about Mr. Rosen's his family, his formative years in Hell's Kitchen in the Lower East Side of Manhattan, all leading ultimately to his legacy.
