Which brand of IHG group can promote to compete with or should they make a new one?
I read the OP's observations and question over and over again and asked myself what is new this time. I finally see something new and refreshing. It appears that the OP now considers Conrad to be upper upscale and not luxury.

By the way, there is a thread on new Hilton brands (on the Hilton forum of course) and I find that to be more interesting.
