This makes Thailand the first country in the region and the first in Asia Pacific outside Greater China and Japan to welcome the entry of the Holiday Inn Express brand.
Available in over 1,800 locations worldwide and with 730 hotels in the development pipeline, IHG said Holiday Inn Express is a “smart, innovative and refreshing hotel choice for value-oriented business and leisure travellers”.
Developed by Amburaya Hotels & Resorts, the 300-room hotel is scheduled to open in early 2011.
“Holiday Inn Express will add an entirely new travel option to the Bangkok market. Many smart travellers to Thailand want a stylish hotel that offers exactly what they need and none of the expensive things they don’t,” said Peter Gowers, Chief Executive, IHG Asia Pacific.
Gowers added that there has been “significant interest” in the Holiday Inn Express brand from developers in Thailand and have several new deals under discussion.
In Greater China, there are currently 11 Holiday Inn Express hotels open and 23 new ones in the pipeline. It is also available in Beijing, Shanghai, Tianjin, Shenzhen and Dalian as well as Hong Kong.
