IHG strategic rollout planned with 31 hotels in India
POSTED 15 May 2009 . BY Sarah Todd
InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG) has confirmed a development pipeline of 31 hotels to be opened across major metros and secondary cities in India over the next few years, with just under half to include wellness facilities.

This will effectively add more than 7,600 rooms to the group's portfolio, while 13 out of the 31 hotels will have spas. The growth momentum will be driven by IHG's three brands in India - InterContinental Hotels & Resorts, Crowne Plaza Hotels & Resorts, and Holiday Inn Hotels and Resorts. IHG currently has 11 hotels in India. Details: ihg.com
