Holiday Inn is one of the world's most recognised hotel brands, founded in 1952 by Kemmons Wilson in Memphis, Tennessee, and now part of IHG Hotels & Resorts. With properties across hundreds of destinations worldwide, Holiday Inn is designed for travellers who want a dependable, comfortable stay whether they are travelling for business or leisure. A brand relaunch in 2007 brought fresher rooms, improved service standards, and signature bedding and bathroom products to hotels across the globe.
Holiday Inn properties are built around a consistent set of amenities that take the guesswork out of booking. Guests can expect on-site restaurants and bars, fitness centres, comfortable lounges, in-room coffeemakers, meeting spaces, and business services. Whether you need a quiet corner to catch up on work or a place to unwind after a long day of sightseeing, the familiar surroundings of a Holiday Inn make it easy to settle in from the moment you arrive.
Holiday Inn has long been known as a family-friendly choice. Under the "kids eat and stay free" policy, children staying with a paying adult can enjoy complimentary meals from the restaurant kids' menu, making a family break noticeably easier on the budget. The relaxed, spacious atmosphere means parents and children alike can feel at home rather than out of place.
For those travelling on business, Holiday Inn provides meeting rooms, business services, and reliable in-room connectivity, all within a hotel that also offers the comfort and dining options that make long trips more bearable. The blend of professional facilities and welcoming common areas makes it a practical choice for extended work stays as well as short overnight trips.
Holiday Inn is owned by IHG Hotels & Resorts (InterContinental Hotels Group). IHG acquired the brand when Six Continents split in 2003, and Holiday Inn remains one of IHG's flagship mid-scale hotel brands operating through a franchise and management model worldwide.
Holiday Inn was founded in 1952 by Kemmons Wilson, who opened the first hotel in Memphis, Tennessee. Wilson's aim was to create a reliable, affordable roadside hotel that families could count on — a concept that proved enormously popular and led to rapid expansion across the United States and beyond.
Under this longstanding policy, children sharing a room with a paying adult stay at no additional room charge, and they can eat free from the designated kids' menu at the hotel restaurant when accompanied by a dining adult. Specific age limits and conditions vary by property, so it is worth checking the details for individual hotels at the time of booking.
Standard Holiday Inn features generally include on-site restaurants and bars, a fitness centre, a business centre, meeting rooms, comfortable guest lounges, and in-room coffeemakers. Many locations also offer swimming pools and additional leisure facilities. The exact range of amenities varies by property and location.
Yes. Holiday Inn is positioned as a strong choice for both business and leisure travellers. Meeting rooms, business services, and reliable connectivity are standard at most properties, while the on-site dining and comfortable rooms provide a welcome break from the working day.
