IHG Hotels & Resorts has announced the signing of a management agreement with Eros Group (Nehru Place Hotels Pvt Ltd) to open InterContinental Eros New Delhi Nehru Place
Slated to open under the InterContinental brand post renovation. The hotel is expected to be completed in 2029. The new addition is in line with IHG’s strategy to expand its luxury and lifestyle portfolio across key locations in India.
InterContinental Hotels & Resorts is the world’s first and largest international luxury hotel brand, synonymous with bold exploration, cultural discovery, and the worldliness that travel brings.

In India, InterContinental continues to build remarkable momentum, expanding across key metros while also answering rising demand for leisure resort experiences with recent signings in coveted resort destinations, including Kasauli and Kodaikanal. Deeply familiar to both domestic and international travellers, the brand is poised for its next chapter of growth, and this latest signing in the heart of the national capital marks a defining moment in InterContinental’s story in India.
Commenting on the announcement, Sudeep Jain, Managing Director, South West Asia, IHG Hotels & Resorts, said, “We are delighted to once again partner with Eros Group (Nehru Place Hotels Private Limited) to bring our global luxury brand, InterContinental, to the national capital.
