IHG Hotels & Resorts has announced the opening of the 100th hotel under its voco brand, reaching this milestone within seven years of the brand’s launch.
IHG Hotels & Resorts has successfully expanded its voco brand to 100 open hotels globally since its inception in 2018. This achievement comes just seven years after the brand was introduced. The voco brand, part of IHG’s portfolio, has seen a rapid increase in its presence worldwide, with properties now spanning over 25 countries.
The 100th property, voco Guilin Yangshuo in China, is located in the scenic area of Yangshuo’s Ten-Mile Gallery. This hotel features 73 guestrooms distributed across six villas, offering panoramic views of the Karst peaks and Yulong River. The expansion of the voco brand includes other notable openings such as voco Quang Binh Resort by IHG in Vietnam and an upcoming property, voco The Shelby in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, which will be the first voco hotel on a beachfront in the U.S.
voco has nearly doubled its system and pipeline since 2023, reflecting the strength of IHG’s enterprise platform and its strategic focus on conversion opportunities. The brand currently has 95 properties in its development pipeline and aims to reach 200 hotels globally within a decade of its launch.
The voco brand continues to expand its global footprint with plans for further openings in countries including Türkiye, Malaysia, and Aruba over the next two years.
Recent milestones for the brand include:
