The Dertour Group is expanding its hotel operations by acquiring full ownership of DSR Hotel Holding, a significant German hotel company. The transaction, effective August 1, will simplify the ownership structure and strengthen the group's position in the hospitality sector.

DSR Hotel Holding currently manages 34 hotels located in cities, by lakes, and on the coastlines of Germany, Austria, and Italy. Its portfolio includes well-known brands such as A-Rosa, aja Resorts, and Henri, as well as individual hotels. The company employs over 2,700 staff members. Future developments include the opening of the Henri hotel in Garmisch-Partenkirchen and an A-Rosa hotel on Lake Tegernsee, scheduled for September.

This full acquisition is a key part of Dertour's growth strategy, which prioritizes its own hotel base. Since 2021, all hotel activities have been consolidated under a specialized hotel division. This segment now encompasses 12 brands, around 120 properties in 15 countries, and employs approximately 5,000 people. Hotels easily accessible by car or train are increasingly important to the group's strategy.
