AccorHotels completes Movenpick deal

AccorHotels completes €482m Movenpick deal

AccorHotels has completed its acquisition of Movenpick Hotels & Resorts. The Enterprise Value (EV) represents €482m and encompasses 100% of Movenpick company’s share capital, as well as ownership of the Movenpick brand for all activities related to the hospitality business. The transaction illustrates AccorHotels’ ambition to seize tactical opportunities to strengthen its positions and consolidate its leadership, as well as to leverage growth. As an asset-light business, the acquisition of Movenpick is perfectly aligned with AccorHotels’ strategy.

 

Comprised of 84 properties with over 20,000 rooms and 42 signed pipeline hotels to be opened before December 2021, the Movenpick network consolidates AccorHotels’ footprint in Europe and Asia while accelerating growth in Africa and the Middle East, where Mövenpick enjoys significant brand awareness.

 
Sebastien Bazin, Chairman and CEO of AccorHotels, said: "With a footprint in more than 20 countries, we strongly believe Movenpick represents a strategic opportunity to bring synergies and new developments in key areas. Movenpick’s European-Swiss heritage and its combination of modernity and authenticity embodied by committed and talented teams fit perfectly with AccorHotels’ core value. Along with our new partners and thanks to our strengthened brand offering further enhancing the variety of experiences available to our clients, we look forward to a rewarding future together."
