The project marks the return of the InterContinental brand to the site and supports IHG’s strategy to expand its luxury portfolio in India. Located in South Delhi’s key business district, the hotel will offer premium accommodation, dining, event spaces, and wellness facilities. The partnership builds on a long-standing relationship between IHG and Eros Group and reflects growing demand for high-end hospitality in India’s capital.

(PRESS RELEASE) NEW DELHI, 2026-Mar-30 — /Travel PR News/ — IHG Hotels & Resorts has announced a new management agreement with Eros Group to reintroduce the InterContinental Hotels & Resorts brand to a landmark property in New Delhi. The hotel, to be known as InterContinental Eros New Delhi Nehru Place, is scheduled to open in 2029 following an extensive renovation.

Located in the bustling commercial district of Nehru Place, the 216-room property will strengthen IHG’s presence in India’s luxury and lifestyle hospitality segment. The signing aligns with the group’s broader strategy to expand its footprint in key urban markets across the country.

Sudeep Jain, Managing Director for South West Asia at IHG Hotels & Resorts, noted that South Delhi’s concentration of corporate offices, diplomatic missions, and cultural landmarks makes it an ideal setting for a premium hospitality offering. He added that the project reinforces the company’s long-standing partnership with Eros Group and supports growing demand for high-end accommodation in the capital.

The hotel will offer 216 guest rooms and suites, alongside a range of dining venues including restaurants, a bar, and a lobby lounge. Guests will also have access to extensive event and meeting facilities, including a grand ballroom, multiple meeting rooms, and landscaped outdoor spaces designed for both corporate functions and social gatherings. Wellness and leisure amenities will include a spa, fitness centre, and swimming pool.

Satish Sood, Managing Director of Eros Group (Nehru Place Hotels Pvt Ltd), emphasized that the partnership reflects the group’s long-term vision of developing high-quality hospitality assets in major Indian cities. He highlighted the value of leveraging IHG’s global systems and loyalty programme to enhance the property’s competitiveness and performance.

The site has a long-standing association with the InterContinental brand, having originally opened in 1996 and operated under the brand for more than a decade before being managed independently as Eros Hotel New Delhi. With this latest agreement, the property will return to IHG’s portfolio as part of its continued expansion in the Indian market.

Strategically positioned near Nehru Place Metro Station and within convenient reach of Indira Gandhi International Airport, the hotel also offers proximity to key attractions such as the Lotus Temple and Kalkaji Mandir, making it well suited for both business and leisure travellers.

IHG currently operates 51 hotels across India under multiple brands and has a pipeline of 89 additional properties. The company aims to significantly expand its presence in the country, targeting more than 400 open and pipeline hotels in the coming years.
