Airbnb Buys German Clone Accoleo, Opens First European Office In Hamburg

Airbnb just raised $100 million at a $1 billion valuation, and it's using some of that cash (and/or stock) to acquire a German 'equivalent' dubbed Accoleo. This move signals Airbnb's willingness to expand worldwide - the startup will establish its first European office in Hamburg, Germany.Coincidentally, one of its main rivals in Europe, venture-backed 9flats - started by Qype founder Stephan Uhrenbacher - is also based in Germany (Berlin, to be more precise).
