About ibis

ibis is the largest economy hotel brand in Europe and splits into three sub-brands at slightly different prices. Its rooms are standardised tightly enough that the layout is close to identical across dozens of countries. Accor owns it, and the original Formule 1 concept below it pioneered the very low-cost European roadside hotel with shared bathrooms and automated check-in.
