Accor sold off Motel 6 in 2012. See https://www.travelpulse.com/news/hot...9-billion.html

I think Accor has 24 brands, 21 of which participate in Le Club AccorHotels. Marriott has 30 brands, 29 of which participate in Marriott Bonvoy.

I don't see such a merger happening — but if you had told me ten years ago that Marriott would acquire Starwood, I would not have believed that either.
