Unverified claim. This entry reproduces a listing published by the akira group on its own extortion site. Attackers routinely exaggerate or fabricate victims. Nothing here confirms that Refinery Hotel suffered a breach, or what data was actually taken.

About the organisation

Refinery Hotel is a luxury hotel located near Bryant Park in New York City, offering a modern r einterpretation of a historic hat factory. The hotel features 197 stylish rooms with industrial accents and modern amenities, alongside dining options such as the Parker & Quinn restaurant a nd the Refinery Rooftop bar. We will upload 15gb of corporate data soon. Employee personal information (passports, DLs, SSNs , w9 forms), guests information, financials, contracts and agreements, lots of NDAs, etc.

What the listing means

Refinery Hotel appeared on the akira leak site on 01 July 2026. Groups publish a victim once negotiations stall or as pressure during them, so a listing usually means data was already exfiltrated. This group has published 21 claims in the last 30 days and remains active.

Recommended actions

  • Treat any unsolicited message referencing Refinery Hotel as suspicious β€” leaked data gets weaponised for phishing within days.
  • If you hold an account with this organisation, change the password now and enable two-factor authentication.
  • Other Hospitality and Tourism organisations should review this group's known TTPs and validate detection coverage against them.
  • Watch for follow-on extortion: stolen data is often re-leaked or resold after the initial listing.
  • A leak-site listing is a claim made by the attacker, not a confirmed breach β€” check the organisation's own disclosures before acting on it.
