IHG announced in July that an agreement had been reached with Covivio to rebrand a total of 13 properties in the United Kingdom under the Voco label. Also, this brand will initially be rolled out in IHG’s European, Middle Eastern, African and Asian markets and expanding to China and throughout America in the future.
The Watermark Hotel & Spa Gold Coast in Surfers Paradise is set to be the first Voco property to open outside of Europe. It will re-open as a Voco hotel by the end of 2018.
