By Crystal Hsu / Staff reporterSindhorn Midtown in Thailand, a hospitality brand owned by the quasi-governmental Crown Property Bureau, is courting Taiwanese tourists, who on average travel to the nation twice a year, top officials in Taipei said. About 680,000 Taiwanese visit Thailand each year, with repeat travelers accounting for 45 percent, driven mainly by those seeking to escape the hustle and bustle of modern city life on a relatively affordable budget, Sindhorn Midtown general manager Jee Hoong Tan said in an exclusive interview with the Taipei Times this week. Sindhorn Midtown, a lifestyle hotel of 344 rooms and suites, is seeking to take advantage of the booming business potential when it starts operations in March. The hotelier flew to Taipei this week to visit local shipping and computer companies to promote stays at the Sindhorn Midtown for business and personal travel. Sindhorn Midtown is a Thai hospitality brand that aims to develop more properties, Tan said.
