Located on Naluang Hill, the property will overlook Luang Prabang and be within reach of the city’s UNESCO World Heritage-listed Ancient Town and other cultural attractions.

The resort will be IHG’s first property in Luang Prabang and will add to the company’s operations in Laos.

The hospitality group partnered with Naluang International Resort and Hotel to bring the Holiday Inn Resort brand to Luang Prabang .

IHG Hotels & Resorts South East Asia and Korea Development senior director Shi’ai Liang said: “Luang Prabang is one of Southeast Asia’s most captivating destinations, renowned for its rich cultural heritage, natural beauty and enduring appeal among domestic and international travellers.

“As demand for quality leisure travel experiences continues to grow across the region, we see significant opportunities in destinations that offer authentic cultural connections alongside exceptional hospitality.

“Beyond its strong leisure appeal, Luang Prabang is also benefiting from improving connectivity and growing demand for meetings, incentives and corporate retreats.

“Our partnership with Naluang International Resort and Hotel will introduce one of the most trusted and globally recognised hotel brands to Luang Prabang and support its continued growth as a leading leisure and meetings hub in Laos.”

IHG currently operates two hotels including Crowne Plaza and Holiday Inn & Suites, with a combined 471 keys across the two brands in Vientiane, Laos.
