IHG Hotels & Resorts has signed a management agreement with JADEER GROUP to develop Hotel Indigo Cairo New Administrative Capital. The 140-key hotel will be located within a mixed-use development in the New Capital in the east of Cairo and is scheduled to open in 2033.
The hotel will serve the area’s business, governmental and residential ecosystem and will cater to both corporate and leisure demand. The New Administrative Capital is a national development project designed as a master-planned city with infrastructure, government and diplomatic districts, residential communities and commercial and mixed-use developments. The area has connectivity to Cairo through highways and planned transport networks and includes cultural, retail and lifestyle destinations.
“Egypt continues to be a priority market for IHG, and the New Capital represents a significant opportunity as the country’s future administrative and business hub. Hotel Indigo is particularly well suited to this evolving urban environment, offering a lifestyle-led experience that resonates with both business and leisure travellers. We are pleased to build on our partnership with JADEER GROUP and further strengthen our presence in this important destination,” said Haitham Mattar, managing director, India, Middle East & Africa, IHG Hotels & Resorts.
The hotel will reflect the character of its surrounding neighborhood through locally inspired design and experiences connected to the urban identity of the New Capital. The project follows the signing of Hotel Indigo New Cairo and reflects continued collaboration between IHG and JADEER GROUP.
“Our continued collaboration with IHG reflects our confidence in their global expertise and strong brand portfolio. Following the signing of Hotel Indigo New Cairo, our partnership with IHG for Hotel Indigo Cairo New Administrative Capital is a strategic addition that aligns with our vision to develop distinctive, mixed-use destinations. We believe the brand’s focus on design, culture, and neighbourhood storytelling will resonate strongly within the New Capital,” said Mahmoud Abou Al Khair, chairman of JADEER GROUP.
IHG Hotels & Resorts currently operates nine hotels in Egypt across InterContinental, Crowne Plaza, Holiday Inn and Staybridge Suites. The company also has a pipeline of 23 hotels scheduled to open in the coming years.
