IHG Hotels & Resorts (IHG), one of the world’s leading hotel companies, proudly announces the return of its InterContinental Hotels & Resorts brand to Serbia after 20 years, in partnership with Delta Holding.

Expected to open by the end of 2026, InterContinental Belgrade will feature 203 rooms, including 28 Premium Rooms, 15 Junior Suites, 2 Superior Suites, 2 Executive Suites and a Presidential Suite with panoramic views of the city, providing luxury stays designed for both leisure and business guests.

The hotel’s timeless architecture and unique features will include a breath taking sky pool, rooftop restaurant and bar, and terrace complete with fine dining. Visitors can also enjoy its spa and wellness centre, ballroom, lobby lounge, café, patisserie and meeting spaces.

InterContinental Belgrade will be ideally in the ‘Delta District’, a new mixed-use development in Belgrade’s business and financial centre, offering direct connections from the city’s newly renovated Sava Centar, which is the largest convention and exhibition space in the region.

(Mrs) Willemijn Geels, Vice President, Development, Europe, IHG Hotels & Resorts, commented: “Our world-renowned InterContinental Hotels & Resorts brand has been pioneering luxury travel for more than 75 years, and it’s great to bring it back to Serbia, a country that has enjoyed a surge in tourism in recent years. Its reputation as a business and investment powerhouse, together with its rich artistic heritage, fascinating history dating back over 7,000 years, and exquisite cuisine, makes it the ideal destination for locals and international visitors alike.

Andrej Sovrović, Member of the Executive Board of the Delta Holding company and Cluster General Manager IHG Hotels & Resorts, said: “We are looking to create unique places for locals and travellers to enjoy in Belgrade, which is why we are excited that InterContinental Hotels & Resorts, the world’s first and largest international luxury hotel brand, will be part of our exciting new development in the city.

IHG operates three open properties in Serbia, all located in the capital: Hotel Indigo Belgrade, Crowne Plaza Belgrade and Holiday Inn Belgrade, and has an additional two Holiday Inn Express properties in development. InterContinental Belgrade will also join a growing portfolio of nearly 20 open and pipeline properties across the Balkans in Albania, Montenegro, Serbia, Slovenia and Northern Republic of Macedonia.
