Marriott had indicated at the time that it intended to leverage <strong>Lefay<\/strong>\u2019s expertise in holistic wellness while providing its global commercial reach and Marriott Bonvoy loyalty program to accelerate the brand\u2019s international expansion.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Lefay has indeed established itself as a leader in luxury wellness in Europe<\/strong>.

The group believes that demand for travel experiences centered on health, wellness, and longevity continues to grow, making wellness one of the most promising segments in the luxury hospitality industry.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Many hotel chains have also recognized the potential of this segment : <strong>Mandarin Oriental, IHG Hotels &amp; Resorts<\/strong>, and <strong>Hyatt<\/strong>, for example, have already embraced it.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>A structure that preserves Lefay\u2019s identity<\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>As part of the transaction, the joint venture becomes the owner of the Lefay brand as well as its intellectual property assets. <strong>The Italian real estate assets, however, remain in the hands of the founding family<\/strong>. The properties will be operated under long-term management contracts with the joint venture.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The hotel brand also stated that it would support the brand\u2019s expansion through its global development, sales, marketing, and distribution platforms, while preserving Lefay\u2019s unique identity.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Read also &gt; <a href=\"https:\/\/luxus-plus.com\/en\/marriott-the-luxury-collection-returns-to-new-york-with-the-opening-of-the-london\/\">Marriott : The Luxury Collection returns to New York with the opening of The London<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Featured photo : \u00a9 Lefay<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Marriott International has completed its acquisition of the high-end wellness brand Lefay, thereby making a definitive entry into the luxury wellness market.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":256,"featured_media":198473,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_seopress_titles_title":"%%post_title%% %%sep%% %%sitetitle%%","_seopress_titles_desc":"Marriott International has completed its acquisition of the high-end wellness brand Lefay, thereby making a definitive entry into the luxury wellness market.","_seopress_robots_index":"","_seopress_robots_follow":"","_seopress_robots_imageindex":"","_seopress_robots_snippet":"","_seopress_robots_primary_cat":"","_seopress_robots_breadcrumbs":"","_seopress_robots_freeze_modified_date":"","_seopress_robots_custom_modified_date":"","_seopress_robots_canonical":"","_seopress_social_fb_title":"","_seopress_social_fb_desc":"","_seopress_social_fb_img":"","_seopress_social_fb_img_attachment_id":0,"_seopress_social_fb_img_width":0,"_seopress_social_fb_img_height":0,"_seopress_social_twitter_title":"","_seopress_social_twitter_desc":"","_seopress_social_twitter_img":"","_seopress_social_twitter_img_attachment_id":0,"_seopress_social_twitter_img_width":0,"_seopress_social_twitter_img_height":0,"_seopress_redirections_value":"","_seopress_redirections_enabled":"","_seopress_redirections_enabled_regex":"","_seopress_redirections_logged_status":"","_seopress_redirections_param":"","_seopress_redirections_type":0,"_seopress_analysis_target_kw":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1964,24713],"tags":[23506,22931,25649,25558,23346,22419,25585],"class_list":["post-198475","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-brand-strategy","category-news-en","tag-bien-etre-en","tag-hotel","tag-lefay","tag-luxury-hotel-industry","tag-marriott-en","tag-news-en","tag-wellness"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/luxus-plus.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/198475","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/luxus-plus.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/luxus-plus.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/luxus-plus.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/256"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/luxus-plus.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=198475"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/luxus-plus.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/198475\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":198476,"href":"https:\/\/luxus-plus.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/198475\/revisions\/198476"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/luxus-plus.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/198473"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/luxus-plus.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=198475"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/luxus-plus.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=198475"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/luxus-plus.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=198475"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
