Holiday Inn Express

InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG) has signed a management agreement with one of Pattaya's leading hotel developers, Nova Park Co. Ltd, to develop a 240-room Holiday Inn Express hotel in one of Thailand's most popular beachside cities, Pattaya.

Slated to open by 2017, the new Holiday Inn Express Pattaya Central will offer guests comfort and convenience close to the city's beachfront and along Soi Buakao, a street renowned for its range of restaurants, bars and retail outlets, ensuring that guests have no lack of food and entertainment options during their stay.

In the hotel itself guests can enjoy a great start to their day with free breakfast in the hotel's Great Room, lounge by the rooftop swimming pool or work-out at the fitness centre before heading out.

With tourism growing and the development of the upcoming Eastern Seaboard industrial hub expected to draw more business visitors to the city, we will be in a good position to cater to the growing number of guests coming to the area when the hotel opens in 2017."
