The Kensington Jeju Hotel, one of tourists' favorite properties on the resort island, will close its doors in May.

제주도 관광명소 중 하나인 켄싱턴 제주호텔이 5월 문을 닫는다.


However, it will be revived as a brand new hotel that will be operated by Shinsegae Chosun Hotel, which aims to place itself as one of the locally grown hospitality giants along with Hotel Shilla and Lotte Hotels and Resorts.

하지만 이 호텔은 호텔신라, 롯데호텔앤드리조트와 나란히, 국내 호텔업계의 거물로 성장한 신세계조선호텔로 되살아 날 예정이다.


"Until the end of May, the hotel will be operated in the name of the Kensington hotel," a Kensington official said. "After that, Shinsegae will take over the business and the name is probably likely to be changed."

켄싱턴호텔 관계자는 "5월 말까지 켄싱턴호텔의 이름으로 호텔을 운영할 예정"이라고 말하며 "그 후 신세계가 사업을 인수하게 돼 명칭이 바뀔 가능성이 크다"고 덧붙였다.


In February 2018, E-Land Group sold the Kensington hotel and a nearby site allotted for building the Sangrok Hotel to B&M Development, a subsidiary of SK Group's real estate developing unit SK D&D, for 128 billion won ($114 million) in a bid to improve its financial stability.

이랜드그룹은 2018년 2월 켄싱턴호텔과 상록호텔 건립에 배정된 인근 부지를 SK그룹 부동산개발사업단 SK D&D의 자회사인 B&M개발에 1,280억 원에 매각해 재무안정성을 높였다.


Even after selling the Kensington, it has still remained an operator of the five-star hotel, located in the Jungmun Tourist Complex in a southern part of the island.

켄싱턴을 팔고 나서도 이랜드그룹은 제주도 남쪽의 중문관광단지에 있는 이 5성급 호텔의 운영자로 아직 남아있는 상태다.


However, the operation deal is scheduled to expire in June and Shinsegae Chosun Hotel will succeed the operation and management.

그러나 운영계약은 6월 만료될 예정이며 신세계조선호텔이 운영과 경영을 승계하게 된다.


Upon the takeover, the property is expected to undergo a one-year renovation, which is likely to start in July.

이번 인수에 따라 이 호텔은 1년간 개보수를 받을 예정이며 이는 7월에 시작될 것으로 보인다.
