About

KAYAK is a travel metasearch engine founded in 2004 by Steve Hafner and Paul English, acquired by Booking Holdings (then Priceline Group) for $1.8B in 2013. Headquartered in Stamford, Connecticut, KAYAK aggregates flight, hotel, car rental, and vacation package results from hundreds of travel sites, enabling one-click comparison shopping. Its product suite includes KAYAK.com, the Momondo brand (acquired 2017), HotelsCombined, and a business travel management platform, KAYAK for Business.\n\nKAYAK's revenue model is primarily CPC (cost-per-click), charging airlines, OTAs, and hotels for qualified referrals rather than taking a booking commission. This metasearch model positions KAYAK as a neutral aggregator rather than a competing OTA, though it also offers direct booking through its platform in select categories. KAYAK for Business targets corporate travel managers with policy controls and expense integrations.\n\nAs a wholly owned subsidiary of Booking Holdings ($26.9B revenue FY2025), KAYAK does not report standalone financials. It remains one of the most visited travel websites globally, with over 300 million monthly searches across its brand portfolio. KAYAK's AI trip-planning features and integration with Booking.com inventory have strengthened its position as a one-stop travel research tool heading into 2026.

About

Ennismore is a hospitality company focused on lifestyle and design-led hotels, founded by Sharan Pasricha and majority-acquired by Accor in 2021 through a joint venture that merged Ennismore's original brands with Accor's lifestyle portfolio. Headquartered in London, Ennismore manages 16 distinct hotel brands—including The Hoxton, SLS Hotels, Mondrian, 25hours Hotels, Mama Shelter, Hyde, Gleneagles, Tribe, and Jo&Joe—across 190+ operating hotels and 145+ in the development pipeline. The company also operates over 500 branded restaurants and bars globally.\n\nEnnismore's operating model combines creative brand stewardship with centralized operational infrastructure. Each brand retains a distinct identity and design language, while Ennismore provides shared services in technology, procurement, loyalty (ALL - Accor Live Limitless), and revenue management. The group targets the growing "experience economy" traveler who prioritizes culture, F&B, and design over traditional hotel amenities.\n\nIn 2025, Ennismore opened over 20 new hotels and 35 new restaurant and bar destinations, entering new markets including Australia (Hyde, Mondrian, 25hours) and Ireland (The Hoxton Dublin). Launches in 2025 also included the Paris Society Hotel Collection, a curated portfolio of iconic European destination properties. Ennismore's pipeline reflects strong developer demand for lifestyle brands in the upper-midscale and upscale segments.
