IHG® Hotels & Resorts has signed a management agreement with Hotel Chetan International to develop two new hotels in Bengaluru: Crowne Plaza Bengaluru KIADB Aerospace Park in the premium segment and Holiday Inn Express Bengaluru KIADB Aerospace Park from the company’s essentials collection. Scheduled to open in the quarter 1 of 2028, the dual development will add over 420 keys to IHG’s growing portfolio in India.
Located within Bengaluru’s largest industrial and aerospace parks and in close proximity to Kempegowda International Airport, the hotels will be well-positioned to capture demand from leading aerospace and technology companies, Global Capability Centres (GCCs), and corporates in the vicinity. Additionally, with the upcoming BCCI Centre of Excellence and National Cricket Academy situated opposite the upcoming hotels, as well as strong residential and commercial catchments nearby, both hotels will benefit from the demand coming from social, leisure and MICE segments.
Commenting on the signing, Sudeep Jain, Managing Director, South West Asia, IHG® Hotels & Resorts, said: “We are delighted to strengthen our presence in Bengaluru with the addition of two strategically located hotels in the thriving KIADB Aerospace Park. The presence of leading aerospace and technology companies, coupled with the upcoming BCCI Centre of Excellence, makes this location a key demand generator across business, leisure, and social segments. With the introduction of Crowne Plaza and Holiday Inn Express in this hub, we are confident of catering to a wide spectrum of travellers seeking both premium experiences and smart, convenient stays.”
He added: “Bengaluru continues to be one of India’s most dynamic markets, not only as the country’s technology capital but also as a hub for aerospace, research, education, and start-ups. This dual signing reinforces our commitment to expanding in high-potential destinations and providing diverse hospitality offerings across segments.”
HC Byregowda, Managing Partner, Hotel Chetan International, said: “We are pleased to partner with IHG Hotels & Resorts to bring Crowne Plaza and Holiday Inn Express to KIADB Aerospace Park. The strategic location, coupled with IHG’s strong global systems and the IHG One Rewards loyalty programme, gives us great confidence in the success of these hotels. Together, we aim to deliver high-quality hospitality experiences that will cater to both domestic and international travellers.”
