InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG), which owns the Crowne Plaza and Holiday Inn brands, has announced the signing of two hotels at Aberdeen International Airport.
The 165-room Crowne Plaza hotel will be newly constructed within a 2 minute walk of the terminal building. The hotel, which will open in 2016, will feature meeting rooms, an outdoor terrace, a gym, restaurant and bar, and car parking spaces for guests.
The new build Holiday Inn Express hotel will be located next door to the Crowne Plaza hotel and is expected to open towards the end of 2015. This property will feature 193 standard rooms and a dining area.
Both of the hotels will operate under franchise agreements with long-time owner and partner, Dominvs Group.
Anna Corkill, Director of Development for the UK and Ireland, IHG said: “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.”
