INTERCONTINENTAL Hotels Group (IHG) will launch the first-ever Crowne Plaza hotel in Central Java on January 22.
Owned by the Golden Flower Group and managed by IHG, the Crowne Plaza Semarang, located within the city’s central business district, will offer 270 keys – including one presidential, four junior and 20 executive suites.
Ian Reid, general manager, Crowne Plaza Semarang, said: “Being the first Crowne Plaza-branded hotel in Central Java – and the second in Indonesia following Jakarta – Crowne Plaza Semarang will add to the thriving tourism and economic activities in this part of the region.”
Facilities will include restaurants offering local and international cuisine, a business centre, a health club, an outdoor pool, and a sauna. The hotel will also feature the largest pillar-less hotel ballroom in Central Java, complete with a wedding chapel and gallery, and able to accommodate more than 2,000 pax.
“The opening of Crowne Plaza Semarang underscores IHG’s strong expansion in South-east Asia,” said Alan Watts, vice president of operations, South-east Asia at IHG.
Crowne Plaza Semarang will be IHG’s seventh property in Indonesia; two of which are under the Crowne Plaza brand. The group currently has a pipeline of 32 hotels and resorts under various brands across the region.
The first quarter of the year will see four other openings in South-east Asia – Holiday Inn Express Bangkok Siam, InterContinental Samui Baan Taling Ngam Resort, InterContinental Danang Resort, and Holiday Inn Bangkok Sukhumvit 22.
