Chinese hotels are catering to a new client base that does it’s work outside of a traditional office. With remote workers on the rise globally, Chinese hotels are incorporating co-working space in their properties for guests. The spaces include shared desks, device charging stations and leisure areas like microbreweries and gardens.

Some hotels are even offering music and photography studios, meeting rooms and urban fitness centers. The idea is based on reactions to market trends and a cultural shift in the workforce.

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.

Accor selects IDeaS Optix as a referenced BI tool for its hotels

Accor has added IDeaS' Optix business intelligence tool to the referenced reporting options for its hotels. IDeaS is already Accor's revenue management system of record. The open test is whether Accor hotels adopt Optix at anything like the nearly 40% rate IDeaS reports among its independent, small-group and regional chain clients.

  • 01Nearly 40% of IDeaS' independent, small-group and regional-chain clients run Optix. The number to watch is how close Accor hotels get to that share.
