Hotel Indigo® Debuts in Malaysia in the Heart of Its Capital City
IHG® (InterContinental Hotels Group), one of the world's leading hotel companies, has signed a landmark deal to bring boutique upscale brand Hotel Indigo® to Kuala Lumpur in partnership with Techvance Properties Management Sdn. Bhd.
Scheduled to open in 2023, the 180-room Hotel Indigo Kuala Lumpur on the Park will be located at the base of the picturesque Bukit Nanas, close to KL Tower and KL Forest Eco Park, in the heart of Malaysia's capital city.
No two Hotel Indigo® properties are the same, and this stunning addition to the brand portfolio will have Kuala Lumpur's multicultural influences embedded in its DNA through a visionary design which captures the historical charm of local heritage buildings and the breadth of nearby modern architecture.
Sustainability has been key in Hotel Indigo Kuala Lumpur on the Park's creation with environmentally friendly methods prioritised in its planning, led by the use of reclaimed materials from nearby sites, solar panels on its roof, and rainwater harvesting. In line with IHG's broader sustainability efforts, the hotel will also be plastic straw free and will opt for bulk amenities in all its guest rooms.
With greenery from one of the country's oldest forest reserves woven throughout the hotel to bring the forest inside, memorable features include an interactive Green Wall in the lobby and a spot of quiet serenity amidst the bustle of the city in a Secret Garden. Guests will have an immersive experience all through the hotel to savour (and share on social media).
There are 126 Hotel Indigo hotels around the globe with a pipeline of nearly 100 hotels set to open within the next three to five years.

First Hotel Indigo in Jakarta to Open Within Exclusive New Development

IHG® (InterContinental Hotels Group), one of the world's largest hotel companies, is set to welcome the world's most neighbourhood-centric brand to Indonesia's Special Capital Region of Jakarta with the signing of Hotel Indigo Jakarta Pantai Indah Kapuk.
Partnering IHG in this landmark project are PT Kapuk Naga Indah, the land and building owner and a subsidiary of property developer Agung Sedayu Group (ASG) and Salim Group. The signing marks the beginning of a strategic partnership between Agung Sedayu Group and InterContinental Hotels Group as one of their preferred partners for hotel projects in Indonesia.
The PIK project responds to the desire for elegant living with world-class amenities, a dynamic social scene and natural touches close at hand. The development injects new energy to this exclusive zone in northern Jakarta. The hotel is a contemporary yet uniquely Indonesian neighbourhood experience, catering to a dynamic cross-section of travellers from around the world — who seek to work, relax, enjoy themselves, and gain local inspiration for their travels ahead.
Hotel Indigo Jakarta Pantai Indah Kapuk is a notable addition to IHG's presence in Indonesia. The archipelago boasts the world's fourth largest population, comprising 270 million citizens, with half of these millennials. As the first Hotel Indigo in Jakarta, the property will strengthen the brand equity of Hotel Indigo among hotel owners and developers, and increase awareness of the brand among growing numbers of domestic travellers.
