Accor hotel brand tiers, from Luxury to Economy

On its website, the group places each brand in a tier: Luxury, Lifestyle, Premium, Midscale and Economy. We follow this official grid and the 42 brands it lists; Accor claims “more than 45”, and its detailed portfolio also includes offshoots missing from this list, such as Novotel Suites and Gleneagles. Brand figures are the group’s own, at 30 June 2026.

In its accounts, Accor keeps only two main divisions: Premium, Midscale & Economy (5,282 hotels at 30 September 2026) and Luxury & Lifestyle (575 hotels). Third-quarter figures were published on 22 October 2026. To compare with other groups, see our hotel brand pyramid.

Luxury: Orient Express to Banyan Tree, 8 brands

Accor’s Luxury tier counts more than 385 hotels and 88,900 rooms. Fairmont, founded in 1907, is its largest brand by rooms, ahead of Sofitel; Raffles dates back to 1887. Orient Express, born in 1883 with the Paris-Constantinople train, is being reborn as a hotel brand: Orient Express La Minerva has moved into a 17th-century palazzo in Rome, near the Pantheon, with 93 rooms and suites designed by Hugo Toro. The brand has opened a second hotel, the Orient Express Venezia.

Two brands deserve a word. Emblems Collection brings together luxury hotels that keep their own names, such as Lucknam Park in England and the Rimrock Banff in Canada; Masseria Furnirussi, in Apulia, is due in early 2027. Banyan Tree comes from a partnership with Banyan Group: its count includes hotels that Accor only distributes.

• Orient Express (2): born in 1883 with the Paris-Constantinople train; 2 hotels, 1 train and the sailing yacht Orient Express Corinthian (54 suites)

Ennismore, Lifestyle in its own right: 12 brands

Accor’s Lifestyle tier has a floor of its own: Ennismore, a joint venture that brings together hotel brands with strong personalities, the Paris Society restaurant group and the all-inclusive Rixos resorts. Its brands count more than 180 hotels and 45,275 rooms at 30 June 2026; Rixos, with 47 properties, is the largest.

Ennismore has not been split off from the group. In October 2025, Accor’s board approved the study of a possible stock market listing of Ennismore, stating that Accor would remain its controlling shareholder and that the deal was not certain. The 22 October 2026 release announces no decision. Faena and Banyan Tree, counted in Lifestyle in the group’s accounts, appear under Luxury on its website.

Why ibis dominates Economy

With 1,211 hotels and 150,779 rooms, ibis is the group’s largest brand. Together with ibis Styles (708) and ibis budget (590), the ibis family carries most of an Economy tier of more than 2,760 hotels, over a third of Accor’s rooms.

Around ibis, hotelF1 (115 hotels) plays on low prices, greet (46) on the essentials, and JO&JOE (13) blends youth hostel and hotel; it was still counted in Lifestyle at the end of 2025. Finally, BreakFree rents holiday apartments in Australia and New Zealand.

• ibis Styles (708): each hotel has its own playful, colourful décor
• ibis (1,211): the group’s largest brand, by hotels and by rooms
• JO&JOE (13): somewhere between youth hostel and hotel
• ibis budget (590): the most affordable of the ibis family
• greet (46): budget hotels that focus on the essentials
• BreakFree (22): holiday apartments in Australia and New Zealand
• hotelF1 (115): Accor’s “French-style motel”, at low prices

Paris in January: €130-1,222 a night

To measure the gap between tiers, on 30 October 2026 we checked the price of the same night on all.accor.com, from Thursday 14 to Friday 15 January 2027, for two adults, at the lowest public rate, taxes and fees included. Luxury costs more than nine times the price of Economy: €1,222 at Le Royal Monceau Raffles, €215 at the Novotel Paris Centre Tour Eiffel, €130 at the ibis Paris Tour Eiffel Cambronne.

These rates change every day, so treat them as a ballpark. The free ALL Accor member rate lowers them by up to 5 or 10% depending on the hotel.
