InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG</font><font style="font-size: 70%; vertical-align: top; color: #000000">&#xAE;</font><font style="color: #000000">)
has today announced the acquisition of Six Senses Hotels Resorts
Spas, one of the world's leading operators of luxury hotels,
resorts and spas. The $300 million cash acquisition from Pegasus
Capital Advisors includes all of Six Senses' brands and operating
companies and does not include any real estate
assets.</font></font></div>

<font style="color: #000000; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 13px">
Six Senses currently manages 16 hotels and resorts, with 18
management contracts signed into its pipeline, and more than 50
further deals under active discussion. With properties in locations
such as the Maldives, the Seychelles, Yao Noi in Thailand, Zighy
Bay in Oman, and Portugal's Douro Valley, the addition of Six
Senses' award-winning estate and high-quality development pipeline
will further round out IHG's position in the luxury
segment.</font></div>

At Six Senses' core is a commitment to guest rejuvenation and
reconnection, with an expert focus on wellness and sustainability.
The acquisition extends IHG's reach to a community of affluent
travellers and new owners and provides instant entry to some of the
world's most sought-after locations.</font></div>

Six Senses will sit at the top of IHG's luxury portfolio,
complementing the world's largest luxury hotel brand,
InterContinental Hotels &amp; Resorts; the recently acquired and
repositioned Regent Hotels &amp; Resorts; and Kimpton Hotels &amp;
Restaurants, for which IHG has secured a presence in 14 countries,
since its acquisition of the brand in 2015. Today's acquisition of
Six Senses takes IHG's portfolio of open and pipeline luxury hotels
to 400 hotels (108,000 rooms) globally.</font></div>

By combining IHG's scale, systems and operational excellence with
Six Senses' luxury, resort and spa expertise, IHG sees the
potential to grow the Six Senses estate to more than 60 properties
globally over the next 10 years. This includes bringing Six Senses
to important urban markets, with a property already under
construction in West Chelsea, Manhattan, New York
City.</font></div>

an outstanding brand in the top-tier of luxury and one we've
admired for some time. You only have to look at its iconic hotels

Senses has been voted the world's top hotel brand for the past two
years, which is testament to its impressive management team who
bring deep experience to IHG's luxury
operations.</font></font></div>

commented:&#xA0;</font><font style="color: #000000">"Six Senses fit
well with our core themes of investing in sustainability and
wellness with a focus on ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance)
integration, and we're proud of the work we have done to build it
into one of the world's best luxury hotel brands. Since acquiring
the brand in 2012, we have taken the Six Senses experience to some
of the world's most select locations. IHG shares many of our values
and will protect what's special about the brand as it drives Six
Senses' next phase of growth."</font></font></div>

Cautionary note regarding forward-looking statements:</font></div>
<div style="text-align: justify; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; text-indent: 0px">
<font style="color: #000000; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 13px">
This announcement contains certain forward-looking statements as
defined under United States law (Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934) and otherwise.&#xA0; These forward-looking
statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate
only to historical or current facts.&#xA0; Forward-looking
statements often use words such as 'anticipate', 'target',
'expect', 'estimate', 'intend', 'plan', 'goal', 'believe' or other
words of similar meaning.&#xA0; These statements are based on
assumptions and assessments made by InterContinental Hotels Group
PLC's management in light of their experience and their perception
of historical trends, current conditions, expected future
developments and other factors they believe to be
appropriate.&#xA0; By their nature, forward-looking statements are
inherently predictive, speculative and involve risk and
uncertainty.&#xA0; There are a number of factors that could cause
actual results and developments to differ materially from those
expressed in or implied by, such forward-looking statements.&#xA0;
The main factors that could affect the business and the financial
results are described in the 'Risk Factors' section in the current
InterContinental Hotels Group PLC's Annual report and Form 20-F
filed with the United States Securities and Exchange
Commission.</font></div>
