Singapore Sovereign Wealth Fund GIC Takes Majority Stake in Tokyo Sheraton
新加坡主權財富基金GIC(新加坡政府投資公司)以4.64億美金的價格收購東京迪士尼樂園附近的東京灣喜來登大酒店51%股權,成為該基金近年來在日本的最大宗投資之一。余下49%股權由美國峰堡投資集團管理的日本房地產信托投資基金Invincible Investment Corp.收購,而美國峰堡投資集團正是這筆交易的賣方。
據日經新聞報道,這筆收購交易總價值約9.09億美金,幾乎是2013年美國峰堡投資集團收購價的2倍。東京灣喜來登大酒店擁有1016間客房,包括一幢2016年12月面世的擁有175間客房的塔樓。該酒店毗鄰東京迪士尼樂園,是規(guī)模最大的迪士尼官方配套酒店。東京將于2020年舉辦奧運會,勢必為東京酒店業(yè)帶來巨大商機。
Singapore sovereign fund GIC Private Limited has acquired a 51-percent stake in the Sheraton Grande Tokyo Bay Hotel, close to the Tokyo Disney Resort, for $464 million. It's said to be one of its largest investments in Japan in recent years. The remaining 49 percent of the hotel is being acquired by Invincible Investment Corp., a Japanese real estate investment trust sponsored by U.S. investment firm Fortress Investment Group, which was the seller of the property.
According to Asia's Nikkei, the total acquisition price is worth approximately $909 million, roughly double the reported amount paid by Fortress when it acquired the hotel in 2013. The hotel has 1,016 guest rooms including a 175-room annex tower that opened in December 2016. It is located next to Tokyo Disney Resort, and is the largest hotel among the list of \"official\" Disney accommodations. Tokyo will host the summer Olympics in 2020, which should prove to be a windfall for the region's hotels.
