NOVEMBER 5, 2009 - IHG (InterContinental Hotels Group) [LON:IHG, NYSE:IHG] announced today that the Holiday Inn Las Vegas will open next month.

'We are thrilled to welcome this property to the Holiday Inn family of hotels with the brand new sign and everything it represents. Holiday Inn hotels are specifically designed for business and family oriented leisure travelers in need of a full-service lodging experience, and this property fits well within that offering,' said Gina LaBarre, vice president, Brand Delivery, the Americas, IHG. 'Development in Las Vegas is important in expanding our Holiday Inn consumer base and growing an even stronger presence across the Americas.'

The property will showcase the brand's new sign, which is the seal of approval that this hotel exemplifies the standards of the $1 billion Holiday Inn brand relaunch program. The Holiday Inn brand relaunch is the largest in the history of the hospitality industry, with more than 3,300 hotels around the world being updated - improving quality and driving consistency at Holiday Inn and Holiday Inn Express hotels around the world. The global estate is expected to be relaunched by the end of 2010, and 1,200 hotels have already been relaunched to date.

The 129-room Holiday Inn Las Vegas offers a variety of amenities including an outdoor pool, fitness center and 42' flat-screen televisions in each guestroom.

The hotel's restaurant, Forte Grille, features fresh global fusion cuisine for both breakfast and dinner. Forte Grille offers a relaxed atmosphere, signature drinks, and chef-inspired dishes. Consistent with all Holiday Inn hotels, Forte Grille will also provide the Holiday Inn Best-4-Breakfast menu, featuring signature items such as Cinnamon Supreme French Toast(TM) and Skillet Inspirations(TM). Kids 12 and younger eat free at Holiday Inn when ordering from the kids' menu in the hotel restaurant and accompanied by a dining adult. Room Service Right...On Time(TM), also a standard at all Holiday Inn hotels, ensures that guests' room service orders are accurate and delivered on time, every time.

'Flamingo Structures LLC has invested $35 million to build this property and we are pleased with the end result,' said Michael Coward, general manager. 'Las Vegas is one of the most well-traveled markets for both tourism and business in the U.S. making it a perfect fit for the Holiday Inn brand.'

Standard Holiday Inn guestroom accommodations feature comfortable queen or king-sized beds, a sitting area with a lounge chair, cable television, hairdryer, coffee maker, iron and ironing board. Bathrooms include a specially designed showerhead that offers superior pressure, as well as a signature shower curtain with curved rod and new amenities.
