The promotion will run till 30th September at selected Crowne Plaza, Holiday Inn and Holiday Inn Express hotels.

“We are excited about our new partnership with Visa, who, like us, has a reputation for high standards and quality service, and we look forward to supporting a long standing relationship with them going forward” said Haitham Mattar, Director of Sales and Marketing, IHG Middle East & Africa. “We share a similar client base and believe this initiative will deliver real benefits to our customers as well as drive online booking, which is faster and more convenient.
