With official brand descriptions like these, it's like Radisson was just begging for us to give them the Skift Take treatment — and we gladly obliged.

Carlson Rezidor hasn't taken advantage of its vast potential. This new name and strategy may help.

It appears as though HNA's buying sprees of 2016 and 2017 will come to an abrupt end. More telling will be what impact, if any, this may have for its many travel investments, including in Hilton, Carlson Rezidor, and others.

The answers vary but there's at least one overriding shared sentiment. Even if times are good, there's always room for improvement in any industry.

Like other massive Chinese conglomerates (Anbang, anyone?) HNA Group's ownership structure is just as convoluted and HNA's connections to the global travel industry are numerous. In the hotel space alone HNA is an investor or owner of the following brands: HIlton, Carlson Rezidor, NH Hotels, and Red Lion Hotels Corporation, to name a few.

Signs of HNA’s influence are pretty apparent here. Now that it owns all of Carlson Hotels, will it attempt to buy the rest of the remaining shares of Rezidor that it doesn’t own?

The bigger question now is what will happen to Rezidor, and how will that impact HNA's other hotel investments in NH Hotels, as well as Hilton and Red Lion Hotels?

No hospitality merger or acquisition is ever as simple as it seems and, as this case shows, hotel buyers need to consider what kind of impact their purchases may have on their other investments.

Airline loyalty programs have offered TSA PreCheck as a perk, but this marks the first time a hotel company has done so. Here's hoping the PreCheck program, embattled by TSA budget cuts, will improve enough to become a real, tangible perk for travelers.

Although Carlson Rezidor saw one of its best years, financially, in 2015 since 2007, 2016 is proving to be a challenging one for the company, which has also been rumored to be up for sale.

Both Accor and HNA are thinking smarter than most about the right, strategic buys in the sector. And Carlson Rezidor is undervalued right now.
