With new travel habits, people seeking out longer stays and exploring destinations more fully, Accor continues to lead the accelerating extended stay market with the industry’s most comprehensive extended stay portfolio, benefiting our owners, our guests, and Accor.

Anticipating the Evolving Landscape of Travel Trends

Today, the global extended stay hotel market is valued at approximately US$54.5 billion and set to reach US$166.5 billion by 2032 (Extended Stay Hotel Market Outlook 2023-2033 by Future Market Insights), with growing demand from cities such as Riyadh, London and Singapore.

As remote and hybrid work models come into their own, more and more professional travelers are mixing business and leisure – and looking to stay at their destination for longer. Many guests are also keen to explore the destination more fully and connect with the local community, as highlighted in Accor’s “Hospitality Ahead” report and exclusive survey of 15,000 travelers across seven countries identifying the desire to “seek & savor” as the top-ranked desired emotional experience in travel.

The demand for extended stay properties is soaring, creating opportunities for Accor to facilitate and enrich new hybrid lifestyles. Serviced apartments and extended stay offer guests all the flexibility and home comforts they need, mixing the privacy and comfort of a home with the convenience of hotel services. Accor is anticipating new travel trends and continues to lead markets where the Group has established deep roots, strong relationships, and a powerful presence, such as in Europe, the Middle East and Asia-Pacific.

Aligning with demand, Accor has built on our expertise in hotel accommodation to innovate in this sector. Now one of the global leaders in extended stay, we offer an unparalleled portfolio of globally recognized extended stay brands. Camil Yazbeck, Global Chief Development Officer - Premium, Midscale & Economy
