InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG) announced the signing of a new Holiday Inn hotel in Quito, Ecuador. This property brings three IHG-branded hotels to Ecuador including the current Holiday Inn Express Quito hotel, and the upcoming Holiday Inn Guayaquil Airport hotel slated to open next month.
The hotel will be located approximately 22 miles from Quito’s city center and one mile from the new Mariscal Sucre International Airport, built to expand the capacity of the city’s former airport and estimated to serve five million travelers annually with room for future expansion. Surrounded by the Andes Mountains, Quito is the second most populous city in Ecuador and a UNESCO World Heritage site, having one of the best-preserved historic city centers in the Americas.
Scheduled to debut in 2016, the four-story hotel will boast a modern facade and design featuring 130 guest rooms. The hotel will be equipped with maximum sound insulation, built to minimize airport noise, and will also feature an array of on-site amenities, including an indoor swimming pool, restaurant, fitness center and 6,000 square feet of meeting space.
