Sonder (NASDAQ: SOND) is a leading global hospitality brand, offering premium, design-forward apartments and intimate boutique hotels for the modern, savvy traveler. Founded in 2014, Sonder combines thoughtfully designed spaces with seamless, tech-enabled service — all delivered through a single, beautifully integrated experience.
Our properties are located in the world’s most sought-after neighborhoods, spanning 40+ markets across nine countries and three continents. Through the Sonder app, guests enjoy full control over their stay — from self check-in to 24/7 support — making every detail of travel easier, more flexible, and more inspiring.
In 2024, we announced a strategic partnership with Marriott International, bringing Sonder properties to Marriott.com and the Marriott Bonvoy app. This integration connects our inventory and front of house and back of house systems with the world’s largest travel loyalty platform — unlocking exciting new possibilities for our guests and employees.
Sonder is focused on delivering amazing experiences for the modern traveler while driving smart, sustainable growth. Our team blends the agility of a tech company with the standards of a global hospitality brand — and we’re building something that’s reshaping the future of travel.
