Marriott International has launched Four Points Express by Sheraton, a brand designed for the midscale segment.
The move comes after Marriott’s recent venture into the midscale segment with City Express by Marriott and the announcement of its plans to launch StudioRes in Canada and the US.
The brand is designed to meet the growing demand for affordable and reliable accommodations across Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA).
Four Points Express by Sheraton aims to provide budget-conscious guests with hotels in convenient locations and simplicity and affordability in both the guest and design experience.
It is also in line with Marriott’s aim to meet guests’ diverse needs along with lodging options that are regionally appropriate.
Marriott International president EMEA Satya Anand said: “Midscale is a resilient industry segment that currently represents almost 1.2 million rooms in EMEA and 68% of those rooms are unbranded.
