French hotel chain Accor wants to double its Dutch hotel total from 37 to 74 over the next five years, the Financieele Dagblad reports on Friday.

‘We want a better spread in the Netherlands, where we are now concentrated in the Randstad (the central urban belt) Accor Nederland director Caro van Eekelen told the paper.
The expansion will be a mixture of new build and takeovers.
The Dutch operations are one of the most profitable in the Accor group, which operates in 90 countries, Van Eekelen said. Some 60% of customers are business travellers.
