• IHG’s acquisition of Six Senses for $300 million show just how seriously the major hotel players are now taking wellness and sustainability - the two pillars of the Six Senses brand.
In common with Starwood Capital’s 1 Hotels brand, Six Senses prides itself on taking sustainability seriously, even to the extent of measuring and publishing its sustainability results.
The acquisition also strengthens IHG’s hand in the crucial Asian markets - the majority of the Six Senses hotels are in the region and the Thai-based brand has also launched its first hotel in China.
Wellness and sustainability will both be on the agenda at the 2019 Boutique and Lifestyle Hotel Summit, which is taking place at the Kimpton Fitzroy on May 22nd. Click here to find out more and buy tickets.
