Holiday Inn Express – the world’s biggest hotel brand – has blazed a trail for simple, smart travel since 1990, when it was created to challenge convention in the industry. Today, with over 3,200 hotels worldwide, Holiday Inn Express is IHG’s largest and fastest-growing brand.

The city also houses premier aerospace and defense organizations, leading educational institutions, and a rapidly growing commercial sector. The hotel’s strategic location in the Central Business District (CBD) places it near major corporate hubs, government offices, and public sector undertakings, making it an ideal choice for corporate travelers.
Commenting on the signing, Sudeep Jain, Managing Director, South West Asia, IHG Hotels & Resorts, said: “We are honored to partner with Hulkul Hotels LLP to launch Holiday Inn Express Bengaluru Lalbagh Road, further strengthening our presence in one of India’s most dynamic and high-growth cities.

With this latest signing, the Holiday Inn Express brand portfolio now has five hotels in the city, testament to the brand’s strategic growth and responsiveness to the sustained demand for modern accommodation.
He added “The hotel’s strategic location in the Central Business District will ensure seamless access for business and leisure travelers alike, offering a smart and comfortable stay.”
Holiday Inn Express Bengaluru Lalbagh Road will feature 100 well-appointed rooms, an all-day dining venue, a fitness center, a business center, ample parking, and a meeting room.
