Denham, United Kingdom, 2021-Nov-04 — /Travel PR News/ — IHG Hotels & Resorts, one of the world’s leading hotel companies, has launched franchise sales in the United States for its newest brand – VignetteTM Collection – providing an opportunity for independent hotel owners in markets across the country. IHG unveiled the highly anticipated Luxury & Lifestyle collection brand in August, along with the first properties to join the collection in Australia and Thailand.

Vignette Collection is the latest offering in IHG’s Luxury & Lifestyle portfolio in recent years, which now includes more than 400 hotels and 100,000 rooms – the second largest portfolio in the industry globally. Vignette Collection builds on the heritage and reputation of brands such as InterContinental Hotels & Resorts, which marked its 75th anniversary this year, and IHG’s world class systems and capabilities, including dedicated resources and a luxury loyalty offering for guests and owners.

Julienne Smith, Senior Vice President, Development, Americas commented: “Vignette Collection gives owners and guests an inspiring new choice and, while each hotel in the collection will maintain its unique story and guest experience, guests will also enjoy the assurance of a consistent and high-quality experience backed by IHG. There is outstanding potential in the Americas region for this brand, specifically in urban and resort locations, with Vignette Collection offering high value and flexibility for hotel owners.”

IHG is inviting interested hotel owners and operators in the U.S. to learn more about Vignette Collection by attending a complimentary virtual development symposium on Tuesday, December 7.
