  • Pipeline reached 268,000 rooms by June 2026, supporting openings through 2027.
  • Share buybacks totaled €450 million in 2026, signaling strong free cash flow confidence.

What critics are saying

  • Grizzly Research’s March 2026 trafficking allegations triggered an internal investigation and reputational damage.
  • Middle East disruption cut Q2 2026 performance, especially UAE Lifestyle revenues, until conflict eases.
