 IHG has signed a management agreement with
Siddhya Hotels & Resorts for the development of a Holiday Inn
resort in Kufri, India.

Scheduled to open in 2026, the new-build, 100-key
Holiday Inn Resort Kufri will be located on a hilltop in one of
the most scenic towns in the district of Shimla.

Facilities will include four F&B outlets; four
versatile meeting and event spaces; a spa; gym; pool; and retail
spaces.

“We are thrilled to partner with IHG Hotels &
Resorts to bring a Holiday Inn Resort to Kufri,” said Siddharth
Kundu, Managing Director of Siddhya Hotels & Resorts. “Combining
our local expertise with IHG’s global standards, we aim to create
a distinguished destination that will become a preferred choice
for travellers seeking both relaxation and adventure.”

IHG currently has 45 hotels operating across five
brands in India, including Six Senses, InterContinental, Crowne
Plaza, Holiday Inn and Holiday Inn Express, with a pipeline of 50
hotels due to open in the next 3-5 years.

“The Kufri-Shimla region is a highly sought-after
leisure and events destination in India,” said Sudeep Jain,
Managing Director, South West Asia, IHG. “It attracts a diverse
range of travellers, from leisure seekers to business guests
attending conferences, and guests seeking destination weddings.
Kufri’s picturesque views and strategic location makes it an ideal
destination to open a Holiday Inn Resort.”
