X2 set for Hoi An City

X2 Hoi An City

X2, the Bangkok-based hospitality brand, will launch a deal with Alternaty Real Estate for a mixed-use X2 Vibe Hotel in Hoi An later this year.

The development (pictured) will be part of a large mixed-use complex, New Hoi An City, and will feature 210 residences and 12 beachfront villas, all with sea views. It will be co-located alongside the 356-room Ozo Hoi An.

The project is expected to be completed by the end of 2016.

“International branded operators are playing their part in helping Vietnam to improve its competitiveness against more mature destination Thailand and Indonesia, by working closely with international travel agents and delivering a convincing value proposition for the destinations and properties,” said Mauro Gasparotti, Alternaty’s Executive Director.

X2 Vibe has been described as the “younger sub-brand” of X2 Resorts, according to BHMAsia, with properties being planned in Bangkok, Koh Samui, Pattaya and Phuket.

X2 (Cross Too) properties are already in operation in Koh Samui, Sydney, Phuket, Chiang Mai, Kanchanaburi and the resort destination of Kui Buri, south of Hua Hin.
