Mews raises 255M to accelerate AI and automation in hospitality

"Amsterdam-based hospitality tech platform Mews has raised €255 million (about $300 million) in a Series D funding round as it pushes deeper into automation and AI-powered workflows for hotels around the world. The round was led by EQT Growth with new participation from Atomico and HarbourVest Partners, alongside existing backers including Kinnevik, Battery Ventures and Tiger Global. The investment values the company at roughly $2.5 billion."

"Founded in 2012 by Richard Valtr and Matt Welle, Mews builds a cloud-native "operating system" for hotels software that ties together reservations, check-ins, housekeeping, payments and more in one platform. Its technology is designed to replace legacy systems that many hotels still rely on, offering a more flexible, connected way to manage day-to-day operations. The new funding will be used to expand the company's AI and automation capabilities at the core of its product."

"That includes embedding agent-driven systems that can take on complex routine tasks, reduce manual work for staff and streamline how hotels handle everything from guest interactions to revenue management. Mews says its platform already supports more than 15,000 properties in 85 countries, and in 2025 it processed nearly 42.3 million check-ins and handled nearly $20 billion in transaction volume. The software also helped generate over $500 million in additional revenue for hoteliers through features like its Mews Spaces module."
