The group’s Middle East and Africa chief executive Steven Daines said the new hotels would “help build a leadership for AccorHotels across segments on this promising and fast growing market”, reported NewBusinessEthiopia.com. AccorHotels already operates 111 hotels in 21 African countries. In Ethiopia it opened a 330-room Pullman in 2014 and a 156-key Novotel in 2015.
