IHG has expanded its presence in Argentina with the opening of the InterContinental Mendoza, in the heart of the country's wine growing region.
Owned by KLP Emprendimientos S.A., the 15-story InterContinental Mendoza totals 180 guestrooms, inclusive of 24 suites. A completed second tower with an additional 72 rooms will be available shortly, bringing the total number of rooms to 252, inclusive of 36 suites.
The InterContinental Mendoza boasts 11 meeting rooms totaling 22,500 square feet, including a 12,000 square foot ballroom, and also has 18,000 square feet of pre-function space. Its amenities include a full-service spa named Deyabu, swimming pool, gym and restaurant.
It is the 18th InterContinental Hotels & Resorts property in Latin America and the Caribbean, with three additional currently under construction.
The InterContinental Mendoza is located across the street from Mendoza Plaza, the city’s largest shopping center, ten minutes from downtown Mendoza and twenty minutes from the city’s international airport. It is on the major thoroughfare (Acceso Este) which connects Mendoza with the nation’s capital, Buenos Aires.
The property is IHG’s second InterContinental in Argentina, joining with the venerable InterContinental Buenos Aires. A third InterContinental is currently under construction in Argentina – the InterContinental Nordelta Buenos Aires, Residence & Spa, in the Nordelta area of Buenos Aires.
“This property is another major milestone in our company’s long history in Latin America,” said Alvaro Diago, COO, IHG, Latin America and Caribbean. “Mendoza is a spectacular destination, both for business and tourism, and we applaud the KLP Emprendimientos S.A. team for constructing a truly spectacular property.”
InterContinental Hotels & Resorts has had a continuous presence in Latin America since the brand’s founding in Brazil in 1946.
As a whole, IHG has more than 190 hotels in Mexico, Central and South America and Caribbean.
