Atour Lifestyle Holdings excels with asset-light hotel franchising and growing retail revenue in China.

Atour Lifestyle Holdings combines asset-light franchising with high-margin lifestyle retail, driving strong growth in China’s hotel market. Its franchised network delivers high returns on invested capital and robust free cash flow, supported by an 80%+ direct booking rate through its large A-CARD ecosystem.
