Leonardo Hotels – which owns the rebranded Jurys Inn in Ireland – has strengthened its presence in mainland Europe; announcing the takeover of four InterCityHotels in Germany across the cities of Nuremberg, Freiburg, Magdeburg and Erfurt.
These will initially operate under a white label banner whilst comprehensive renovations are being carried out. The plan is for these works to be completed by the second quarter of 2026 prior to a rebranding as Leonardo Hotels.
“The acquisition of these four hotels marks a major milestone in our growth strategy,” said Yoram Biton, Managing Director of Leonardo Hotels Central Europe. “Freiburg und Magdeburg open up new doors to exciting destinations, and the launching of a second presence in Erfurt will deepen our commitment to the location. We are also delighted that the venture in Nuremberg will even be our third operation in the city. All of this consolidates our brand profile and strengthens our market footprint in Germany, where we now run 73 hotels.”
