SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 31, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Mews, the industry-leading hospitality cloud, today announced its acquisition of Frontdesk Anywhere, the San-Francisco-headquartered cloud hotel management software.

The acquisition, which was managed by Mews Ventures to accelerate transformation in the hospitality industry, is the third acquisition in North America in just under a year.

By joining forces with Mews, the Frontdesk Anywhere team, customers and partners will continue changing the way hoteliers deliver unrivalled guest experiences through technology and software."
