World's largest hotel brand by rooms under IHG Hotels; midscale full-service and Holiday Inn Express limited-service competing with Marriott Courtyard and Hilton Garden Inn for value travelers.
Holiday Inn is the world's largest hotel brand by room count — a midscale hotel brand within IHG Hotels & Resorts' portfolio offering reliable, consistent accommodations at value price points for business and leisure travelers. Founded in 1952 by Kemmons Wilson in Memphis, Tennessee, Holiday Inn revolutionized American roadside hospitality with standardized quality across locations. IHG Hotels & Resorts (LSE: IHG), which owns Holiday Inn and sister brands Holiday Inn Express, Crowne Plaza, InterContinental, and Kimpton, generates approximately $2.4 billion in annual fee revenue from its managed and franchised portfolio.\n\nThe Holiday Inn brand family includes Holiday Inn (full-service midscale, typically with restaurant and meeting space), Holiday Inn Express (limited-service select with free breakfast bar, the highest-RevPAR brand in IHG's portfolio), Holiday Inn Club Vacations (timeshare resort properties), Holiday Inn Resort (destination leisure properties), and Candlewood Suites (extended-stay positioning). Holiday Inn Express has been particularly successful — the brand's hot breakfast bar and competitive pricing have driven consistent RevPAR premiums against competitors.\n\nIn 2025, IHG's Holiday Inn brands compete with Marriott's Courtyard and Fairfield Inn, Hilton Garden Inn, and Hyatt Place for the midscale hotel market. The midscale and limited-service segment has been one of the most resilient in hospitality — leisure travelers seeking value and business travelers on budget or per diem constraints provide consistent demand. Holiday Inn Express in particular competes strongly with newer limited-service brands. IHG's 2025 strategy focuses on growing Holiday Inn Express conversions (converting independent hotels to Holiday Inn Express franchise agreements), refreshing the Holiday Inn brand with updated design standards, and growing IHG One Rewards loyalty member bookings.
