If further proof were needed that hotel conversions are the most prolific way for hotel groups to grow, the Garner brand has just provided it. Launched in August 2023 by the IHG group, this mid-range brand, adapted to business travellers with work spaces in rooms and common areas, has passed the 100-establishment mark, with a presence in 12 countries. \" Garner's initial success is a testament to IHG's proven expertise in building and deploying large-scale, conversion-ready brands that owners and customers trust. <\/em>\"Karen Gilbride, Global Vice President of Garner Hotels at IHG Hotels & Resorts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By 2025, more than half of the hotels opened by the British group will have been through conversions, so this model is a guarantee of accelerated growth. some establishments completing high-quality conversions in just over a month from signature to opening <\/em>\"says the British group. While the Voco brand, positioned at the top end of the market, has demonstrated the effectiveness of this strategy, having just opened the largest of its 124 hotels worldwide in New York, near Times Square, Garner is continuing along this path.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Germany, Garner's first market<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

But the rapid growth of the Garner brand also owes a great deal to the agreement concluded in Germany with Novum Hospitality, concerning the transfer of its hundred or so establishments to one or other of the IHG group's brands. Under this agreement, 56 properties will become, or in some cases have already become, Garner hotels. The Europe, Middle East, Asia and Africa (EMEAA) region is also where the brand is most represented, with 43 hotels by the end of 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Germany was joined by the first Garner hotels in Italy - the Hotel Rome, in Turkey with the Garner Hotel Istanbul - Airport Arnavutk\u00f6y, and in the UK with the Hotel Preston Samlesbury. Other Garner hotels have recently opened in Lincoln, Rotherham East and Chesterfield North, all close to major road junctions and business and leisure areas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
