InterContinental Hotels Group has signed a
management agreement for a new-build Holiday Inn & Suites in Ho
Chi Minh (Saigon), the second Holiday Inn hotel in the city.
Opening in 2021, Holiday Inn & Suites
Saigon Hi-Tech Park will offer 300 guest rooms, including 50
long-term stay suites. The property will be located in District 9,
about 20 minutes
away from the Tan Son Nhat Airport and the future Long Thanh
Airport.
Serena Lim, Vice President, Development, South
East Asia & Korea, IHG said, “As Vietnam’s commercial capital and
largest city, Ho Chi Minh City represents one of our key
markets in the region. Last year, it welcomed nearly 6.4 million
international tourist arrivals, a 23% increase on
2016, accounting for almost half of Vietnam’s 12.9 million tourist
arrivals. The city’s fast-growing business and tourism sectors
bode well for our strategic expansion in this market, and we know
that Holiday Inn & Suites Saigon Hi-Tech Park will be well-poised
to meet the rising demand for internationally branded and reliable
accommodation in Ho Chi Minh City.”
As part of a mixed-use development, Holiday Inn
& Suites Saigon Hi-Tech Park will offer guests a variety of retail
and lifestyle options right at their doorstep including a retail
mall, driving range, and cultural park.
The hotel will feature three dining outlets, a
banquet-style room that can accommodate up to 600 guests, meeting
rooms, and an outdoor pool, gym, spa and e-gaming
facility.
IHG has 8 hotels operating across two brands in
Vietnam, with a further 10 in the development pipeline.
