PREM Hospitality currently operates 3 award-winning IHG branded hotels in Belgium; the Holiday Inn Brussels Schuman, Holiday Inn Express Mechelen and the Hotel Indigo Antwerp which opened in January 2018.  Our successful management of these properties, no doubt led to this further 10 property deal now being done.  IHG is well known as one of the world’s leading hotel companies and we are delighted that they have entered into this MDA with us. The deal will allow PREM Hospitality to further expand its footprint across Benelux and enter the German market for the first time.
