Poland: InterContinental Hotels Group has announced the signing of Staybridge Suites Warsaw Ursynów, the brand’s eighth property in Europe.
Due to open in late 2019, the 190-room new-build hotel will operate under a franchise agreement with WIK Capital and will be located in Ursynów, Warsaw’s third largest district.
The hotel will benefit from close proximity to Warsaw Airport, which is only a 15 minute drive away, as well as popular tourist destinations including Kabaty Forest, Natolin Palace and the Służewiec horseracing track.
Miguel Martins, director, development Poland, IHG, said: “We are excited to be bringing Poland’s first Staybridge Suites to Warsaw. As the financial hub of Poland, Warsaw is the perfect location for the brand. Staybridge Suites has more than doubled its presence in the last ten years globally and as Warsaw becomes a tourism and business hub within Eastern Europe, it makes perfect sense to develop Poland’s first Staybridge Suites here.”
Cezary Tur, business development director at WIK Capital, said: “We are pleased to be opening our first IHG branded property in Warsaw in late 2019. IHG offered us all the qualities we are looking for in a long-term partner and we look forward to working together to make this property a well-loved hotel by business and leisure travellers.”</p
