AccorHotels has announced a joint venture with Rixos Hotels.

Accor says the partnership is an 'important statement' about its belief in the social and economical benefits of LGBT+ tourism

Under the long-term joint venture, “both parties intend to collaborate, develop and manage Rixos-branded resorts and hotels worldwide”.

Upon closing, AccorHotels will own a 50% interest in the joint-venture management company.

AccorHotels will integrate 15 hotels – in Turkey, the UAE, Egypt, Russia and elsewhere in Europe – into its network.

Meanwhile Rixos plans to reflag five of its city-centre hotels to AccorHotels brands, which will also be managed by AccorHotels.
