Lima Airport hotel

IHG (InterContinental Hotels Group) continues to increase the Holiday Inn brand’s footprint in Latin America with the signing of the new-build Holiday Inn Lima Airport hotel.  The US$24m hotel will be located adjacent to the city’s Jorge Chavez International Airport.  The property will be managed by the same operator as the established Crowne Plaza Lima, actually in the city.

“We see great potential for our brands in Peru”, said Joel Eisemann, Chief Development Officer, the Americas, IHG.  “Lima is Peru’s economic centre and the development of airport hotels is an extremely positive sign of economic well-being.  There is great demand for this type of hotel and we look forward to helping meet the needs of Peru’s growing hospitality industry”.

The eight-storey 179-room hotel is ideally situated just 2.5 miles away from the Port of Callao, one of the busiest and most heavily trafficked sea-ports in Latin America.  Lima traces its rich history back to 1535, and is the financial centre of Peru, as well as one of the most important Latin American commercial hubs.  It is home to numerous multinational corporations and factories.  Peru has enjoyed strong economic growth and is one of the continent’s fast-growing regions. www.holidayinn.com
