Kaohsiung’s Ambassador Hotel to shut down in January

The Ambassador Hotel Kaohsiung will close its doors in January after more than four decades in business, hotel management said Thursday.

In a statement, the hotel thanked its guests and customers for their patronage over the last 41 years, while announcing plans to renovate and repurpose the property after its closure on Jan. 31, 2023.

“Since opening in 1981, [the Ambassador Hotel] has welcomed many heads of state, politicians and international superstars, while devoting itself to developing Kaohsiung’s tourism sector and creating precious memories for countless domestic and international guests,” the statement read.

After its closure, the riverfront property will be renovated for use as a hotel and hotel-style serviced luxury apartments, the statement said, adding that a similar project is already underway at the Ambassador Taipei, which closed in September.
