Fragrance Hotels in Singapore Have Now Been Re-Branded into Ibis Budget Properties by Accor - Love Hotel No More?
In a deal with Global Premium Hotels back in August, Accor has cemented a deal to franchise the properties under one of Singapore's largest hotel chains - 13 out of 15 properties were trading under the Fragrance Hotel brand and two were under the Parc Sovereign Hotel brand. Accor Live Limitless (ALL) members can now book these Fragrance Hotel properties progressively under the ibis budget brand through Accor's distribution network (and earn points while staying!).

This partnership cements Accor’s position as the largest hotel operator in Singapore, bringing its total inventory to 7,625 rooms across 30 hotels, 3,357 rooms in the luxury and premium space, 1,840 in midscale and 2,428 in economy.
