AccorHotels Wants to Accelerate Its Buying Spree in 2018
Skift Take
AccorHotels' acquisitions over the last couple of years aren't money makers yet but that's not to say they never will be. CEO Sébastien Bazin is still intent on playing a very different game than the other big hotel companies.
AccorHotels isn’t planning on slowing down its aggressive acquisition strategy anytime soon.
