Le Méridien is a global hotel chain with a portfolio of more than 120 hotels in over 50 countries
worldwide. The majority of its properties are located in cities and resorts throughout Europe,
Africa, the Middle East, Asia Pacific and the Americas.
The Le Méridien brand was established in 1972 by Air France "to provide a home away from
home for its customers." The first Le Méridien property was a 1,000-room hotel in Paris ² Le
Méridien Etoile. Within two years of operation the group had 10 hotels in Europe and Africa.
Within the first six years the number of hotels had risen to 21 hotels in Europe, Africa, the
French West Indies, Canada, South America, the Middle East and Mauritius. By 1991, the total
number of Le Méridien properties had risen to 58.
In late 1994, Le Méridien was acquired by UK hotel giant, Forte Group, which in turn was
acquired by Granada PLC in 1996. Through a merger in the summer of 2000 between Forte's
parent company, Granada Group, and global contract catering giant, Compass Group ² and the
subsequent de-merger of the two companies in February 2001 ² the ownership of the Forte
Hotels division and its three brands (Le Méridien, Heritage Hotels and Posthouse Forte) passed
solely to Compass.
In May 2001, Nomura Group announced the acquisition of Le Méridien Hotels & Resorts from
Compass Group plc for £1.9 billion and Le Méridien was merged with Principal Hotels, which
was acquired in February 2001. In December 2003, Lehman Brothers Holdings acquired the
senior debt of Le Méridien.
On November 24, 2005, the Le Méridien brand and management fee business was acquired by
Starwood Hotels & Resorts. The leased and owned real estate assets were acquired in a separate
deal by a joint venture formed by Lehman Brothers and Starwood Capital.

India¶s golden city, Jaipur is home to the most extravagant and elaborate palaces in the country,
built by the princes of Rajasthan over the past millennia. The most famous is the Amber Fort, a
stunningly ornate range of palaces built from 957 AD-1592, and modified for nearly 150 years
afterward. The original glorious white-marble Amber Fort is connected to the present Jaigarh
Fort through secret passages.
The Hawa Mahal, or ³Palace of the Wind,´ was built in 1799 as a pleasure palace for the
Emperor¶s considerable harem ± he wished to entertain them by allowing them to observe daily
activities without the risk of their being seen by outsiders, thus its appearance. The palace looks
like what it is: a screen to protect the identities of the ruler¶s beauties.
In November, the Pushkar Camel Fair comes to Jaipur, bringing with it the essence of the rich
colours and animals of Rajasthan and the surrounding desert. A Fair Village is built upon the
shifting sands of the desert, and camels, donkeys, and bulls are raced and traded, and vendors sell
exotic goods from fruits to saris to jewelry and beyond. Farmers and tourists from the furthest
flung Indian states come to proudly display their cattle and handcrafts.
One of the best movie theatres in Asia, the astonishingly elaborate and opulent Rajmandir is
more than a cinema. Unique and aromatic blends of incense are released into the air at certain
points during the film to transport guests to a world of sensuous mystery.
