Brown Hotels, part of the Israel Canada group, has made its first foray into Italy by acquiring the operator of the Amedia Milan hotel in Milan. The four-star hotel features 148 rooms, a restaurant, bar, and event spaces. It is situated in western Milan, near the San Siro stadium and accessible to transportation hubs connecting to business centers, exhibition complexes, and airports.
Milan is recognized as a major urban hospitality market in Italy, driven by leisure and business tourism, fashion, and trade fairs. This expansion into Italy follows Brown Hotels' significant growth in Germany, where in June the chain announced deals for six hotels totaling approximately 1,500 rooms. These German acquisitions included the Excelsior Hotel in Berlin and five operational hotels in Munich, Leipzig, Hamburg, and Berlin.
The German deals involved the 316-room Excelsior Hotel in Berlin, slated for extensive renovation, and the acquisition of operating rights for five other hotels with a combined 1,179 rooms for about 15.8 million euros. These moves in Germany and Italy underscore Israel Canada Hotels' rapid international expansion.
The Brown Hotels chain currently operates 47 hotels with 6,252 rooms in Israel and Europe, spanning urban hotels, resorts, boutique hotels, holiday villages, and luxury accommodations. Reuven Aleks, owner and partner at Brown Hotels, stated that Milan is a key European economic and tourist hub, and entering Italy is a strategic step in the group's international consolidation, following their expansion in Germany and Western Europe. He added that the group continues to seek strategic opportunities in leading European markets, focusing on properties with growth and enhancement potential.
