                       InterContinental Hotels Group PLC

                         Director's Interest in Shares


The Company has been notified that, prior to the lapse on 11 October 2003 of all
options granted under the Six Continents Sharesave Schemes, Richard Solomons has
exercised his options over Six Continents PLC (Six Continents) shares, to which
he was entitled under the Six Continents Sharesave Scheme 2002. As a result of
the separation of Six Continents in April 2003 and the listing of
InterContinental Hotels Group PLC (IHG) ordinary shares, Six Continents shares
are no longer traded on the London Stock Exchange. Consequently they have been
automatically exchanged for equivalent shares in IHG as follows:


Six Continents PLC options     exchanged for      IHG PLC ordinary shares  Date of exercise
500 at 600p                                       854 at 351p              26 September 2003

Richard Solomons retains this holding of ordinary shares in IHG.

The arrangements under which all holders of options under the Six Continents
Sharesave Schemes were given the opportunity to exercise their options in this
way were set out in the Circular to Six Continents shareholders and the IHG
Listing Particulars dated 17 February 2003.
