Accor Expands in Morocco With New Sofitel Tangier and Tourism Academy Initiative Accor plans to expand in Morocco with a new Sofitel Tangier hotel scheduled to open in 2029, adding to its premium offerings in the country.
The company is partnering with local group Risma to create a tourism academy aimed at developing hospitality talent in Morocco.
International tourist arrivals to Morocco reached nearly 20 million last year, drawing major global hotel chains, including Accor, Hilton and Radisson, to commit to new projects across multiple price points.
This expansion in Morocco positions Accor to tap into a growing tourism market while strengthening brand presence across both luxury and mid-scale segments.
The tourism academy partnership also points to a longer-term commitment on the ground, although investors should keep an eye on execution risk around new project timelines and local demand staying supportive of the planned capacity. Declared Dividend • Apr 26

Accor SA Collaborates with Aws to Deliver Exceptional Guest Experiences At AWS re:Invent,Amazon Web Services Inc. (AWS) announced that Accor S.A. has launched a first-of-its-kind generative artificial intelligence (generative AI) solution using AWS. Incorporating an intuitive conversational interface, Accor's new Travel Assistant will empower guests to find the best experiences according to the style of travel they prefer, transforming the entire booking journey from inspiration to after their stay. Expanding its relationship with AWS, Accor worked closely with experts from AWS Innovation Program, AWS Prototyping, and AWS Professional Services on a customer innovation program to reinvent the guest travel experience, beginning with the Travel Assistant product, which will be incorporated into Accor's booking platform ALL.com. Using Amazon Bedrock, a service that makes multiple foundation models available via an API, and Amazon SageMaker, a fully managed service to build, train, and deploy machine learning (ML) models, this powerful AI platform will replicate an expert travel agent service from initial inspiration through ongoing service following a guest's stay. The Travel Assistant engages guests in a tailored discussion, meticulously crafting and refining a proposal of experiences designed to enhance their journey. Beyond rooms, it unveils activities, special offers, and experiences, such as wellness, food, and beverage choices, that guests might overlook in a traditional search. The Travel Assistant uses the ML and generative AI capabilities of AWS to learn from and pick up on guest preferences, allowing Accor to cater to the needs of multimodal guests, who combine business and leisure experiences into the same trip. Travel Assistant's generative AI can recommend much more than just hotel locations and facilities, by using millions of online sources with information and trusted reviews to compile the most relevant local attractions across shopping, food, and entertainment. This enables Accor to offer guidance and inspiration to guests in the early stages of booking and guide them to its direct booking channels. The technology will streamline the booking process down to a matter of minutes, while increasing conversion rate and revenues and reducing call volumes at Accor's contact center. At the same time, it will further Accor's commitment to enriching its ALL member experience and maintaining top-tier guest satisfaction scores. The Travel Assistant also reflects the commitment of Accor and AWS to the highest data privacy standards. Fully GDPR-compliant, it enables guests to enjoy personalized travel experiences from the start of their booking journeys, trusting that their personal data remains secure.
