Discover Essendi (ex- AccorInvest)

At Essendi, we do more than operate hotels: we create the dynamics that make them thrive.
As a European leader in the economy and midscale segments, we invest and operate with a single ambition: to transform each asset into a sustainable, vibrant, and meaningful place.
We combine asset management and operational excellence to unlock the unique potential of every hotel.
Present in 22 countries with 20,000 employees, we operate 568 hotels under internationally renowned brands such as ibis, Novotel, and Mercure, etc.
We are committed to fostering Positive Hospitality, acting for a lasting positive impact – on our company, our people, and, beyond our walls, on society.
With CARE, DARE and the will to EMPOWER, we create and foster places that thrive.
ESG at the heart of what we do.
At Essendi, we believe that "doing things the right way" means integrating ESG (Environment, Social and Governance) into everything we do as a hotel owner, investor and operator.
The way in which we achieve our financial objectives must also preserve the planet, support society and follow well thought-out governance rules.
