IHG Hotels & Resorts strengthens Thailand portfolio with Hotel Indigo Phuket Nai Yang Beach

Phuket, Thailand - IHG Hotels & Resorts (IHG) announces the signing of Hotel Indigo Phuket Nai Yang Beach in partnership with AssetWise Public Company Limited and its subsidiary Rhom Bho Property Public Company Limited – one of Thailand’s leading residential and real estate companies.

Opening in 2030, the 170-key hotel will further strengthen Hotel Indigo’s fast‑growing global portfolio, which now comprises more than 190 open hotels and over 130 properties in its development pipeline. Around the world, the brand continues to resonate with owners and travellers alike, offering distinctive, locally inspired stays that capture the spirit of neighbourhoods everywhere. The signing reinforces IHG’s commitment to expanding its Luxury & Lifestyle footprint across South East Asia and Korea, which has almost 100 open and pipeline hotels.

The signing of Hotel Indigo Phuket Nai Yang Beach extends IHG’s partnership with AssetWise to two upcoming projects in Phuket – joining voco Phuket Bangtao, both currently in the design and construction stage.

Today’s agreement further strengthens our relationship with AssetWise, while growing IHG’s portfolio in Phuket which now comprises seven open hotels and five pipeline properties across InterContinental, Vignette Collection, Hotel Indigo, Holiday Inn and Holiday Inn Express brands – with voco hotels set to debut soon.

Last year, Phuket enjoyed its strongest high season in five years, surpassing pre-Covid levels. We’re confident this momentum will continue throughout 2026 and beyond, supported by the increase in direct international flights and the island’s reputation for nature and wellness, rich cultural heritage and exceptional cuisine

For more than two decades, we have committed to creating and developing quality residences that fulfil our residents’ needs both now and in the future. We are therefore delighted to extend our partnership with IHG to two hotel projects in Phuket across two brands – Hotel Indigo and voco hotels– through which we’ll offer a stay to suit every traveller.

We have seen the success of the IHG brand portfolio in Thailand and believe that Hotel Indigo will suit the beautiful lifestyle destination of Nai Yang beach thanks to its ability to immerse guests in a neighbourhood-inspired stay that blends comfort, creativity and authenticity, and shaped by the character, culture and energy of its surroundings. Together with IHG – our exclusive partner for hotel development – we look forward to opening our doors to guests in our properties
