IHG Hotels & Resorts reaches and celebrates one million rooms opened worldwide

Backed by an expanding travel industry and a proven global strategy, IHG has experienced outstanding growth, opening hundreds of hotels each year and doubling its brand portfolio to 20 in the last decade, offering options for every occasion in more than 100 countries. This pace of growth has been made possible by one of the world's largest loyalty programs, IHG One Rewards, and a cutting-edge technology platform that delivers more choices and exceptional experiences for millions of guests and thousands of hotel owners around the world.

Reaching one million open rooms is much more than a milestone: it represents the countless unforgettable moments experienced every day at IHG hotels. From new discoveries and reunions, weddings, reunions with family and loved ones, to business connections, professional achievements, and diplomatic encounters, IHG's more than 6,700 properties are welcoming spaces filled with laughter, handshakes, vows, toasts, and friendship.

To commemorate this achievement, IHG is celebrating these special moments as part of its ongoing commitment to delivering Genuine Hospitality Every Time.

“Reaching one million rooms reflects the deep trust that guests, owners, and investors place in IHG and our brands,” said Elie Maalouf, CEO of IHG Hotels & Resorts. “Beyond that, it’s a tribute to our associates, who help millions of guests live their best experiences every day, whether it’s with a warm welcome as they walk through our doors or making memories of life’s greatest moments possible. If it matters in life, it happens in our hotels.”

“We're excited for all the special moments to come. With a strong and growing development pipeline encompassing iconic, established heritage, and fast-growing brands, IHG's future is bright.”

IHG opened a record number of rooms in the first half of 2025 and has celebrated key milestones over the past year, including the opening of its 4,000th hotel in the United States, its 800th hotel in China—marking the company's 50th anniversary in the region—as well as record openings and signings across EMEAA. With a strong growth outlook, IHG maintains solid momentum, with a development pipeline of more than 2,200 hotels that will increase its presence in high-growth markets globally.

In Latin America and the Caribbean, IHG is consolidating its growth with new signings and openings that reinforce the region's strategic importance. In recent years, the company has opened new properties in key markets such as Mexico, Peru, and the Dominican Republic. This growth reflects IHG's commitment to expanding its presence in high-potential tourism and business destinations, consolidating the region as one of the pillars of its global development plan.
