“We are thrilled that this hotel has broken ground in a market that IHG has thrived in since 1946 and knows well,” said Joel Eisemann, Chief Development Officer, IHG, the Americas. “IHG is committed to working with our partners in Brazil to develop hotels in growing markets where branded, quality lodging options are needed,” Eisemann added. The upcoming property is owned by Inter Oceanica Hotelaria Ltda under a license agreement with a company in the IHG. The nine-storey hotel will boast four meeting rooms, an outdoor pool, bar, a fully-equipped business center and gym.
“We are excited to partner with IHG and strengthen our relationship through the opening of the Holiday Inn Express Rio Branco,” said Tulio Villela Lemos, Inter Oceanica Hotelaria Ltda. “We are confident that the distinguished status of the Holiday Inn Express brand will draw guests in for an exceptional stay,” Lemos further said.
