This property will be the 26th Hotel Indigo in IHG’s UK & Ireland portfolio and will contribute to the growing luxury and lifestyle offering in the region. Located in Devon, the hotel will be a key addition to one of the UK’s most popular leisure destinations, Torquay. 

 “Our Hotel Indigo brand has experienced accelerated growth in Europe and globally in recent years, propelling owner and guest appetite for the brand. Leisure destinations such as Torquay, known for its seaside charm and year-round activities, perfectly embody Hotel Indigo’s commitment in providing guests with memorable stays entrenched in the stories of their neighbourhoods." - Joanna Kurowska, Managing Director, UK & Ireland at IHG Hotels & Resorts

The 153-room Hotel Indigo Torquay is set to open in the second half of 2025 and will cater for both domestic and international travellers.
