Holiday Inn Logo and Tagline

Holiday Inn is an American chain of hotels based in Atlanta, and a brand of InterContinental Hotels Group, which has its headquarters in Denham, Buckinghamshire. Founded as a U.S. motel chain, it has grown to be one of the world’s largest hotel chains. Kemmons Wilson, a resident of Memphis, Tennessee, was inspired to build a motel after being disappointed by the poor quality of roadside accommodations during a family road trip to Washington, D.C. During construction, the name “Holiday Inn” was coined by Wilson’s architect Eddie Bluestein as a joking reference to the 1942 musical film Holiday Inn. Their first hotel/motel opened in August 1952 as “Holiday Inn Hotel Courts”.
