Being a commercial hub and centre for all activities in Bangladesh, Dhaka is an important market for us in the region and we are always looking for opportunities to strengthen our offering in line with market demands .

He further added, “We are confident on the hotel being a great success and benefiting from the latent demand that will be generated owing to its excellent location and proximity to business and recreational hubs.

Tanzeer Alam Siddique, Managing Director, Doreen Group, added, “We are proud to be partnering with InterContinental Hotels & Resorts, one of the world’s most renowned and trusted hospitality brand. Following a conversion process, and as the hotel will become a part of the IHG family, I am confident it will benefit from company’s strong local presence, global scale, enterprise and systems. We look forward to opening the hotel as Crowne Plaza Dhaka Gulshan soon and building a successful partnership with IHG.”
