INTERCONTINENTAL Hotels Group (IHG) will open the InterContinental Bandung Dago Pakar later this year in Indonesia’s third largest city.
Located in the Dago Pakar development that is north-east of the Bandung city centre, the hotel is seven kilometres from Husein Sastranegara International Airport and three kilometres from the city’s commercial hub.
The property will offer 204 rooms and 19 villas, an all-day dining and a specialty restaurant, health club facilities and a spa, as well as one of the largest ballrooms in Bandung for events and meetings.
The Dago Pakar project is set in the prestigious Dago neighbourhood and will feature an 18-hole golf course, commercial, retail and residential areas as well as an international school and botanical gardens.
Clarence Tan, COO, South-east Asia and resorts, IHG, commented: “Indonesia is a key market for IHG, and home to one of our largest development pipelines in South-east Asia. The new Indonesian property is a strategic part of our expansion plans for the InterContinental Hotels & Resorts brand, which will more than double in the country during the same period.”
IHG recently announced its first Holiday Inn Express hotel in Jakarta (TTG Asia e-Daily, January 21, 2014) and currently operates eight hotels across four brands in Indonesia.
The hotel operator will launch InterContinental Bali Canggu Resort and InterContinental Jakarta Pondok Indah Hotel & Residences by 2016.
