“We’re enthused to work with Alliance Hospitality again because of this very successful working relationship that we have built over the past year,” said Jinhee Michell Lee, President of Aju Hotels. “Their assistance in the acquisition process was incredibly integral for Aju’s initial investments in the United States. We look forward to growing together with Alliance.”
The newest Holiday Inn in the San Jose area, the hotel is located within one mile of the airport. The property features 354 guestrooms, a full-service restaurant, lobby bar, outdoor heated pool and over 12,000 square feet of flexible meeting and banquet space.
