InterContinental will cease management of four Northern Territory hotels from May 1, three of them in Darwin.

The hotel group said it and Ludvik Berger's Berger Hotel Group, which owns the properties, have both looked at "other opportunties".

The four hotels are the Crowne Plaza Darwin, Holiday Inn Esplanade Darwin, Holiday Inn Darwin and Crowne Plaza Alice Springs.

"While we are saddened by the end of a long relationship, IHG is confident of its future in Australia," IHG head of development, Australasia Phil Kasselis said. "We still have strong brand distribution across the country and we will now actively pursue opportunities in Darwin, among other cities."

He added the company has "exciting developments" that will be unveiled in the coming months.
