IHG is preparing to debut the Hotel Indigo and
Vignette Collection brands to Vietnam. Scheduled to open later
this year, the Hotel Indigo Saigon The City will be located in the
heart of the city, whilst the Vignette Collection hotel will be in
Hoi An.
Lifestyle brand Hotel Indigo will soon welcome
guests in the heart of Ho Chi Minh City as brings the
neighbourhood’s sights, sounds and flavours to life throughout its
stunning property and grounds.
“Following the successful
debut of voco hotels in Danang last year, we are excited to
introduce more fantastic IHG brands to Vietnam in 2024,” said Paul
Cunningham, Senior Director, Operations, South East Asia and
Korea, IHG. “Our growth in Vietnam is buoyed by a positive
outlook for travel in the country, where domestic demand remains
strong and international demand continues to grow, especially
within Asia thanks to its growing middle class and expanding GDP.
With new flight routes from major cities including New Delhi,
Manila, Sydney and Munich set to further increase demand, we have
strong aspirations for our growth in the market.”

Vietnam welcomed 4.6 million international
arrivals in first quarter of 2024, exceeding 2019 levels. The
country is targeting 18 million visitors this year.
The country also has a very strong domestic
tourism market. In 2023, there
were 108 million domestic trips within the country, with Hanoi to
Ho Chi Minh (Saigon) remaining one of the top 10 busiest flight routes
in the world. (See also :

“With 18 hotels and 26
properties in the pipeline, we’re seeing many great new
opportunities for growth in Vietnam as we enter new destinations
including Ha Long Bay, Hoi An and Vinh Phuc,” said Cunningham
added. “IHG is in Vietnam, for Vietnam, and we have a
strong in-market team and presence committed to our hotels and
owners as, together, we deliver for our guests.”
IHG has 18 open hotels in Vietnam across six
brands: Six Senses, Regent, InterContinental, Crowne Plaza, voco and
Holiday Inn. The company is on course to more than double
