IHG Hotels & Resorts (IHG) announces the signing of Hotel Indigo Phuket Nai Yang Beach in partnership with AssetWise Public Company Limited and its subsidiary Rhom Bho Property Public Company Limited – one of Thailand’s leading residential and real estate companies.


Opening in 2030, 170-key Luxury & Lifestyle hotel marks second collaboration with AssetWise and its subsidiary Rhom Bho Property



Opening in 2030, the 170-key hotel will further strengthen Hotel Indigo’s fast-growing global portfolio, which now comprises more than 190 open hotels and over 130 properties in its development pipeline. Around the world, the brand continues to resonate with owners and travelers alike, offering distinctive, locally inspired stays that capture the spirit of neighborhoods everywhere. The signing reinforces IHG’s commitment to expanding its Luxury & Lifestyle footprint across Southeast Asia and Korea, which has almost 100 open and pipeline hotels.


The signing of Hotel Indigo Phuket Nai Yang Beach extends IHG’s partnership with AssetWise to two upcoming projects in Phuket – joining voco Phuket Bangtao, both currently in the design and construction stage.


Shi’ai Liang, Senior Director, Development, Southeast Asia & Korea, IHG, said: “Today’s agreement further strengthens our relationship with AssetWise, while growing IHG’s portfolio in Phuket which now comprises seven open hotels and five pipeline properties across InterContinental, Vignette Collection, Hotel Indigo, Holiday Inn, and Holiday Inn Express brands – with voco hotels set to debut soon. Last year, Phuket enjoyed its strongest high season in five years, surpassing pre-Covid levels. We’re confident this momentum will continue throughout 2026 and beyond, supported by the increase in direct international flights and the island’s reputation for nature and wellness, rich cultural heritage, and exceptional cuisine.”


Paneeta Malaivongs, Deputy Chief Executive Officer, AssetWise commented: “For more than two decades, we have committed to creating and developing quality residences that fulfill our residents’ needs both now and in the future. We are therefore delighted to extend our partnership with IHG to two hotel projects in Phuket across two brands – Hotel Indigo and voco hotels – through which we’ll offer a stay to suit every traveler. We have seen the success of the IHG brand portfolio in Thailand and believe that Hotel Indigo will suit the beautiful lifestyle destination of Nai Yang Beach thanks to its ability to immerse guests in a neighborhood-inspired stay that blends comfort, creativity, and authenticity, and is shaped by the character, culture, and energy of its surroundings. Together with IHG – our exclusive partner for hotel development – we look forward to opening our doors to guests in our properties... Read more here - Hotel Management Global Outlook Link

  


Small Tip To Landing Good Senior-Level Hotel Management Positions in 2026


Many of our members have remained with us since the inception of our job lead service seven years ago. They continue to renew their memberships, staying on board even after securing new positions, and for good reason.


Daily, our editors dispatch bulletins detailing new job vacancies, projects, and industry shifts, including hotel launches, expansions, strategies, and market trends.


We recognize that numerous long-standing, senior-level members utilize these bulletins as conversation starters, reaching out to hotel chains and potential employers, sometimes with unsolicited applications and messages. LHN endorses such proactive engagement. It's an excellent, informal method to gain early interest from prominent hotel groups and upcoming projects, indicating your interest and broadening your opportunities for intriguing interviews or discussions about potential roles, particularly at the upper echelons of management.


Our editors also keep these proactive efforts in mind, shaping many bulletins to cover "new openings, new projects, and new market developments."


While membership spots for 2026 are limited, it's not too late to renew.- Read more her
