In a recent transaction, CMS advised Motel One Group on the acquisition of two Austrian hotels, while Barnert Egermann Illigasch and GSK Stockmann represented Flemings Asset Management as the lessors. The takeover is part of Motel One Group's broader acquisition of seven Flemings-brand hotels located in Germany and Austria, which will enhance the group's presence in key cities such as Munich, Frankfurt, Bremen, and Vienna. The deal is still subject to regulatory approval, and the properties are set to undergo refurbishment while remaining operational, with plans to re-open under the Motel One and The Cloud One Hotels brands in 2026. The current landlords will retain ownership of the real estate, and staff will be retained throughout the transition. The CMS team involved in the transaction included Austria-based Partners Johannes Hysek, Mariella Kapoun-Reiter, and Dieter Zandler, along with Associates Clara Puczynski and Alexander Sommergruber, as well as additional lawyers from their German offices. The Barnert Egermann Illigasch team comprised Partners Arabella Eichinger and Isabella Hartung, along with Associate Marco Simonitsch.
