The additions form part of a wider expansion encompassing more than 150 hotels in the Middle East, bringing its network to over 1,400 participating properties across 30 countries.
Earlier this year, Explorer launched in the United Arab Emirates, taking Accor Plus beyond Asia Pacific for the first time, while Japan saw the full-service rollout of Explorer. From today, members can use eligible benefits at participating hotels and resorts in Egypt, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Pakistan, Bahrain, Kuwait, Lebanon and Iraq, including properties from Raffles, Fairmont, Pullman and Mövenpick.
Designed for those who travel, dine out close to home or enjoy local hotel stays, ALL Accor+ Explorer is a paid annual travel loyalty membership bringing together value, status and recognition, member-only privileges and experiences. Its dining benefits are now available at more than 1,800 restaurants and 1,300 bars.
Over the past year, the membership grew to more than 485,000 travellers while members booked more than 3.8 million room nights. They spent the most nights in Australia, followed by Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam and Singapore.
Among the 15 destinations with the most member room nights, year-on-year growth reached 41% in Mainland China, 20% in South Korea, 18% in India and 15% in Japan. Beyond Asia Pacific, room nights rose 21% in the UK and 46% in France.
Hotels where members stayed most often in 2026 included Sofitel Sydney Darling Harbour, Swissôtel The Stamford in Singapore, Sofitel Bali Nusa Dua and Pullman Tokyo Tamachi.
Members can receive an average of three times their annual membership fee in value through stay and dining benefits.
“A year ago, we launched Explorer with a clear promise: real value, from day one. People continue to prioritise travel, dining and experiences that enrich their lives, while looking for meaningful benefits they can use straight away and recognition when they travel. That’s what Accor Plus has built on for more than 30 years. And with our network now extending beyond Asia Pacific into the Middle East, members have even more ways to experience what they love about travel,” said Emilie Couton, Chief Executive Officer of Accor Plus.
The membership includes two Stay Plus FREE nights, up to 50% off selected stays with Red Hot Rooms, and 30% off dining and 15% off beverages for up to 10 guests in Asia Pacific and the Middle East. Members also receive 15% off stays at more than 5,000 Accor hotels worldwide, member-only offers and experiences, and 30 Status Nights each year, unlocking ALL Accor Gold status or helping them progress to a higher tier.
For hotels, room revenue generated by members increased by more than 20%, while members stayed five times as frequently as non-members.
Accor Plus has continued to strengthen partnerships across financial services, retail and other sectors during Explorer’s first year. These include American Express in Australia, New Zealand, Singapore and India, CIMB Niaga in Indonesia and Woori Card in South Korea. A new Visa partnership across selected Asian markets this year reflects growing interest from brands in offering customers more immediate, tangible value through travel and lifestyle benefits.
To mark the anniversary, eligible new members who join the membership by 31 October 2026 will also receive 3,000 bonus ALL Accor Reward points, equivalent to €60 in redemption value.
