– Claire Bennett
Hotel giant, InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG), has rebranded itself as IHG Hotels & Resorts to reflect the companies growing international collection of 16 brands and 6,000 plus destinations.

“Our evolved brand articulates how we bring our purpose of True Hospitality for Good to life for our guests, hotel owners, colleagues and communities.

“So, as we continue to lead through and beyond the pandemic, we’re clear who we are, what we stand for and how we can help guests open up their world again when they’re ready to travel.”

The move has also included a rebrand of the IHG’s visual brand identity and its IHG Rewards programme.
