IHG Signs Second Crowne Plaza Hotel in Danang, Vietnam

InterContinental Hotels Group has signed a management agreement with Minh Dong Travel, a member of PGT Group, to open a second Crowne Plaza hotel in Danang.

Scheduled to open in 2023, the 300-room, 38-storey Crowne Plaza Danang Waterfront will be located next to the beachfront on the city’s main thoroughfare Vo Nguyen Giap street, only a five-minute drive to central Danang and 5km from Danang International Airport.

The hotel will feature 1,500 square metres of dedicated event space, a rooftop infinity pool, three restaurants, a gym and a spa.

Mr. Le Anh Trieu, Chairman of PGT Group, said, “As we expand further into commercial real estate ownership, it’s fantastic to partner with IHG and benefit from both their strong local presence in Vietnam and their global scale and systems. We instinctively knew that the Crowne Plaza brand was the right match for what we were trying to achieve in our mixed-use development close to My Khe Beach. The upscale brand’s business and meetings focus will be an ideal complement to the range of stylish, high-end apartments.”

IHG has been in Vietnam for over a decade and has 14 hotels operating under four brands: Six Senses, InterContinental, Crowne Plaza, and Holiday Inn, with another 17 in a pipeline which includes brand entries for Regent and Hotel Indigo.

Serena Lim, Vice President, Development for IHG, South East Asia & Korea, said, “We are always looking to the future with the Crowne Plaza brand and focusing on how we can support our guests by providing them with a more digital, flexible, mobile and connected environment in which to work, meet and relax, and I am delighted to have PGT Group join us on this journey.”
