Airbnb's Hotel Push Seen as Big Growth Booster -- Market Talk

Dow Jones06-13

1237 ET - Airbnb's push into the hotel industry is going to create tailwinds that the market still doesn't fully appreciate, Mizuho analysts say in a research note. They've spoken to software connectivity partners, along with a former hotel-focused employee, and feel more bullish than ever about Airbnb's strategy of letting hotels list rooms on its app. Hotels are eager to work with the company, difficulties connecting hotel booking systems with Airbnb are being worked out and a cultural shift to prioritize hotels is underway, the analysts say. They also say they could see hotels driving a 2 percentage point tailwind to growth next year. (dean.seal@wsj.com)
