Lexington expands in South Korea

Vantage Hotels’ Lexington brand continues to expand throughout South Korea, with the latest addition being a 340-room new-construction project in the country’s second-largest city, Busan.

The property, which is expected to open in November 2017, will be a full-service hotel and carry Vantage’s Value Hotel Worldwide name, by which Lexington Hotels are known in South Korea.

The property in Busan is the sixth new build in the country to be introduced by Vantage’s master licensee for South Korea, Service Legend.

A 300-room property in Suwon was the first to open in December 2013; a location in Seogwipo is opening this month; a property in Sejong City is expected to be completed this December; and hotels in Jeju City and Gangneung are set to open in 2017. All of the properties are also managed by Service Legend.
