Photo Game
Accor weblink – Accor Around the World photo challenge
The Game – find four differences between two seemingly identical photos of an Accor hotel location and earn points for speed. Highest point earners win the prizes.
This is a game you might want to get your kids playing. My older eyes had real difficulty finding some of the differences. And if you are not quick enough the photo game times out.

Accor Hotels
The Accor hotel chain has over 4,000 hotels globally, similar in size to Hilton, Marriott and InterContinental Hotels Group. The main distinction between Accor hotels and the other chains is most Accor hotels are located outside the U.S.
Accor hotel brands include the upper upscale Sofitel Hotels. There are only 10 Sofitel Hotels in North America. The primary Accor brand in the USA is Motel 6 with over 1,000 properties. When traveling in Europe you will find numerous Ibis, Mercure, and Novotel Hotels in the mid-range price category. Accor runs lots of rate discounts and A-Club offers points bonuses for many hotels.
A-Club is the hotel loyalty program for Accor. Motel 6 is not a full participating member in A-Club. Loyalty points are not earned for Motel 6, but for a limited time through October 2010 you can use A-Club $60 vouchers for Motel 6 credit.Â
