3. HISTORY
In 1967, Paul Dubrule and Gérard Pélisson founded the Société d'investissement et
d'exploitation hôteliers (SIEH) hotel group and opened the first Novotel hotel
outside Lille in northern France.
In 1974, they launched the Ibis brand with the opening of the Ibis Bordeaux.
The following year, SIEH acquired the Courtepaille and Mercure brands, and in
1980 the Sofitel hotel brand, which then consisted of 43 hotels.
In 1982, the SIEH bought Jacques Borel International, then world-leading brand
offering restaurant vouchers.
In 1983, the group, which had restaurant tickets and hotels, changed its name to
the Accor Group.
In 2011, Accor introduced its new brand positioning with the slogan: “Open new
frontiers in hospitality”.
In June 2015, Accor became Accor Hotels and adopted a new slogan “Feel
Welcome”.
