A Statement from InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG) in reaction to Kabul hotel bombing


WEBWIRE

Following extensive media coverage, InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG) would like to confirm that the hotel Inter-continental in Kabul is not part of IHG and has not been since 1980. In light of this fact, we respectfully request that future reports, where possible, make this clear. IHG, listed on the London Stock Exchange, is the world’s largest hotel company with 4,400 hotels in over 100 countries.

Our thoughts at this time are with all of the people affected by this tragedy.
