IHG signs two hotels at Aberdeen International Airport
InterContinental Hotels Group has announced the signing of two hotels at Aberdeen International Airport including Crowne Plaza Aberdeen Airport and Holiday Inn Express Aberdeen Airport. Both hotels will operate under a franchise agreement with long-time owner partner Dominvs Group.
The 165-key Crowne Plaza hotel will be constructed within a 2-minute walk of the terminal building. Opening in 2016, the hotel will feature a number of meeting rooms and an outdoor terrace, a gym, restaurant and bar, alongside ample car parking for guests.
Anna Corkhill, Director of Development for the UK and Ireland, IHG, commented: “We’re delighted to be bringing the Crowne Plaza brand to Aberdeen and to be expanding our Holiday Inn Express brand here. Aberdeen is a large hub for the energy industry in Europe and these two hotels are well placed to meet the needs of international and domestic business travellers who frequent the city.”
The new Holiday Inn Express hotel will be located next door to the Crowne Plaza hotel and is expected to open towards the end of 2015. The property will feature 193 standard rooms and a breakfast/dining area.
Preet Ahluwalia, Owner of Dominvs Group concluded: “We couldn’t have asked for a better location at the airport. These two hotels complement each other perfectly and we look forward to opening their doors and welcoming guests travelling to Aberdeen.”
