IHG Hotels & Resorts has partnered with real estate developer Jadeer Group for a new Hotel Indigo property in New Cairo, Egypt, in 2031.

The partners have signed a management agreement to bring the hotel brand to the country.

The agreement expands IHG’s Luxury & Lifestyle portfolio in Northern Africa and increases its presence in Egypt.

IHG Hotels & Resorts India, Middle East and Africa managing director Haitham Mattar said: “Egypt is a priority market for IHG, and we are excited to partner with Jadeer Group for a new Hotel Indigo in New Cairo.

"The area is rapidly emerging as a hub for business, education, and lifestyle, making it an ideal location for a brand that celebrates uniqueness and thrives in culture and design-rich neighbourhoods.

“This strategic signing underscores our commitment to Cairo’s hospitality sector and supporting Egypt’s National Tourism Strategy.”

Hotel Indigo New Cairo will offer 120 rooms and is part of Jadeer’s Red (G) mixed-use development, which includes residential, retail, and hospitality components.

The property will be located on North 90 Street in New Cairo, near the New Administrative Capital, the American University in Cairo, and several business and leisure sites.

Jadeer Group CEO Mohamed Abo ElKheir said: “Our partnership with IHG for Hotel Indigo New Cairo marks an important milestone towards our vision for Red (G). The Hotel Indigo brand, a brand renowned for combining lifestyle and culture, is a great fit for New Cairo.

"We are confident this hotel will attract both local and international travellers, offering a unique hospitality experience that tells the vibrant story of the neighbourhood.”

IHG operates eight hotels in Egypt under the InterContinental, Crowne Plaza, Holiday Inn, and Staybridge Suites brands.

The company has 22 additional hotels planned to open in the country in the coming years.

IHG recently revealed plans to launch its inaugural Regent resort in Japan, marking the brand’s expansion into the country.
