Bennet Investment Limited follows Marriott's purchase of citizenM

LAS VEGAS - May 6, 2025 - PRLog -- Bennet Investment Limited has released a new hospitality sector update following Marriott International's announcement of its acquisition of citizenM, a fast-growing lifestyle hotel brand known for its design-driven, tech-forward properties. The move marks a strategic expansion of Marriott's footprint in the upscale lifestyle space and signals growing investor interest in experiential travel offerings.

The deal, reportedly valued at over $1 billion, will integrate citizenM's global network of boutique-style hotels into Marriott's brand portfolio, enhancing its appeal to younger, tech-savvy travelers seeking personalized and modern accommodations.

"Marriott's acquisition of citizenM reflects a broader industry trend toward capturing the next generation of travelers," said Sophia Greene, Senior Hospitality Analyst at Bennet Investment Limited. "The lifestyle hotel segment is outperforming traditional formats, and this move strengthens Marriott's position in a high-growth niche."

Founded in 2008, citizenM has expanded across key urban markets in Europe, North America, and Asia. Its compact yet premium rooms, mobile-first service model, and stylish communal spaces have helped the brand build strong customer loyalty and attract attention from global investors.

Bennet Investment Limited notes that the acquisition aligns with Marriott's long-term strategy of diversifying its portfolio while maintaining strong brand differentiation. It also provides new revenue opportunities through loyalty program integration and global expansion.

The firm views the acquisition as a positive development for the hospitality sector and a sign of post-pandemic recovery, especially in international travel and urban leisure markets.
