InterContinental Hotels Group has announced it is set to acquire a 51% stake in the Regent Hotels group.
The deal is set at USD39 million for the initial traunche, with rights for the remaining 49% shareholding on a phased basis over the next eight years.
In Asia the deal already is making waves, as the InterContinental Hotel Hong Kong which wil be closed for extensive renovation in early 2020 will become once again the Regent Hong Kong.
For IHG the acquisition of a luxury hotel brand is key in keeping pace with groups such as Marriott International, ACCOR and Hilton.
