It was announced on Monday that Crown Resorts completed the sale of its subsidiary Alon Las Vegas Resorts to Wynn Resorts for approx. $300 million. The sale is the latest development of reported disinvestments undertaken by Crown Resorts over the past year, with the aim of re-evaluating its business interests.

The company originally planned to develop the land into an Alon hotel and casino, and will be using the proceeds of the sale to pay off company debt. The decision comes on the heels of a series of arrests in 2016 where a group of Crown employees promoted gambling to Chinese citizens and the company decided to reevaluate plans for international expansion.

This is the company’s second attempt to establish a casino in Las Vegas, but backed out of a 2009 deal due to the unfavourable economic climate. They were forced to pay a breakup fee of $320 million with it’s then partner Cannery Casino Resorts.

With the focus now off international development, Crown is setting its sights on it’s local resorts in Melbourne and Perth, and plans to build a new casino resort in Barangaroo, Sydney are also in the works.

Nash & Smashed moves past one meal size with Qu's tiered menu tools

Nash & Smashed moves past one meal size with Qu's tiered menu tools

Nash & Smashed, a 35-location franchise, uses Qu's menu tools to build tiered offers its previous system could not support. That plug-and-play system handled one meal size and a flat add-on, did not track leakage or theft, and offered limited reporting. Qu chief revenue officer Steve Melamed said guests are trading up on the kiosk. About 40% of the brand's orders are digital, most of them through its own website.

  • 01A POS system limited to one meal size and flat add-ons cannot suggest upgrades through kiosks; menu logic behind the hardware determines upsell potential
  • 02Nash & Smashed's 50-plus restaurants in development will shape most of the future chain on Qu, making the rollout choice critical as the brand scales
  • 03Digital orders are about 40% of Nash & Smashed’s business and mostly come via its own website, which can help keep order data in one set of reports on Qu.

Choice Hotels raises 2026 RevPAR outlook as data center demand lifts Q3

Choice Hotels raises 2026 RevPAR outlook as data center demand lifts Q3

In the third quarter, Choice Hotels properties within 10 miles of a major data center grew RevPAR more than 400 basis points faster than the rest of its U.S. system. Infrastructure-related demand is shaping where Choice grows. Extended stay makes up over 40% of its U.S. pipeline, and its U.S. conversion pipeline grew to 25,500 rooms, up 29% from a year earlier.

  • 01Distance to a data center is now a number Choice puts on its earnings call, and in Q3 the hotels within 10 miles of one outgrew the rest of its U.S. system by more than 400 basis points.
  • 02CEO Dom Dragisich said Choice's 3.8% U.S. RevPAR gain was driven primarily by higher occupancy, with rate growth also accelerating. That pattern could fit long-stay business demand filling rooms.

Only 15% say AI has improved frontline hotel work, AHLA and Actabl report finds

Only 15% say AI has improved frontline hotel work, AHLA and Actabl report finds

An AHLA and Actabl report cites survey responses about AI benefits: 84% saw improvements in their own work and 15% in frontline work. Its separate labor-hours and turnover figures do not establish that AI caused those changes.

  • 01Hotels running Actabl's labor software cut hours per occupied room 3.1% at full-service and 3.5% at select-service properties in the first half of 2026 while occupancy rose, a useful benchmark for properties on similar tools.
  • 02June hotel turnover fell to 5.35% in 2026 from 6.07% in 2024, but the decline is not yet tied to any single cause, including more predictable schedules.
