InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG) has signed a contract to open another Crowne Plaza in London.
The Crowne Plaza London – Albert Embankment is due to open in spring 2015 with 130 rooms and a restaurant overlooking the Thames.
It will operate under a franchise agreement with Cannon Corporate UK and is expected to be popular for meetings and events due to its location.
“It’s fantastic to be signing another great upscale hotel in this thriving part of London less than a year after IHG opened InterContinental® London Westminster. We have an enormous opportunity to build on what has already been achieved in London and we are showing no signs of slowing down,” said IHG’s chief development officer Robert Shepherd.
“The UK market offers a wealth of development opportunities that are yet to be realised. This hotel is a great example of IHG’s growth here and a strong sign of confidence in our brands,” he added.
Yesterday IHG announced it had signed a contract to open a hotel at London’s The O2.
