“As the leisure travel boom shows no signs of slowing, along with increasing business and group travel, we recognize the opportunities of growing our presence near the world’s busiest airport and offering broader choice to Atlanta visitors,” Kevin Schramm, SVP of development, mainstream – U.S. and Canada, IHG Hotels & Resorts, said in a statement. “Holiday Inn Express is among the most successful and frequented brands in today’s hospitality landscape, and we are thrilled to introduce another exciting new hotel to the metro Atlanta area.”
