The brand opened its first hotel in Vienna earlier this year.
To deliver its ambitious expansion plans and offer expert support in core markets, the Group will open a regional office in Riyadh, later this year, and has also established new dedicated Business Units in Bangkok, Ho Chi Minh City, Jakarta, and Sydney to further build local development and operations teams.
Elie Younes, Global Chief Development Officer, said: “As restrictions ease across China and APAC, we aim for significant growth in these markets in the second half of this year. China has proven to be a resilient market with strong domestic demand, and we look forward to the reopening of business across the country. We thank our owners and investment stakeholders for their continued support and look forward to further exploring opportunities together.’’
