History

Predecessors

New World Hospitality and New World Hotel Management could be traced back to New World Hotel (later renamed to Renaissance Kowloon Hotel  [ zh ] and demolished in the 2010s along with the rest of New World Centre) that opened in the 1980s, Hotel Victoria in Shun Tak Centre (which the hotel became defunct, the building was refurnished as an office tower), as well as the listed real estate developer New World Development and its subsidiaries New World Hotels (Holdings) and New World Hotels International Limited. The latter was incorporated in 1983. [10] In 1987, The Harbour View Hotel (now Renaissance Harbour View Hotel) in the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre, was also planned to be manage by New World Development group themselves, via New World Hotels International. [11]

In parallel with the acquisition of Ramada-Renaissance Hotels in 1989, New World Development had established its own team in hotel investment and management.

In the 1990s, New World Development entered Mainland China market as hotel manager. [12] :10–11 In 1990, the group managed 6 hotels in Mainland China, namely Jing-guang New World in Beijing, Yangtze New World in Shanghai, China Hotel in Guangzhou, Dragon Hotel in Hangzhou, Gui-shan Hotel in Guilin as well as New World Dynasty Hotel in Xi'an. [12] :11 Currently, the management contracts for those 6 hotels (except Jing-guang New World which was owned by NWD group) were no longer owned by NWD group.

In 1995, NWD group split the Renaissance Hotels into two parallel subsidiaries: a hotel property holding company Hotel Property Investment (BVI) Limited and a hotel management company Renaissance Hotel Group N.V.. New World Hotels International Limited, another hotel management company of the NWD group, became a subsidiary of Renaissance Hotel Group instead. Renaissance Hotel Group became a listed company on the New York Stock Exchange on 27 September 1995. [13] Renaissance Hotel Group also acquired the minority interest of New World Hotels International from several people that connected to NWD group, such NWD directors Stewart Leung Chi-kin, Chan Kam-ling, as well as William Doo Wai-hoi, son-in-law of the patriarch of NWD group, Cheng Yu-tung. [14]

The hotel management company Renaissance Hotel Group was sold in April 1997, for US$491 million (approx. HK$3.8 billion). [15] The Hong Kong incorporated New World Hotels International Limited was also renamed to Renaissance Hotels International Limited in 2005 [10] and RHIL Limited [16] in 2007. [10] Despite NWD group parted away from Renaissance Hotels, 2 out of 4 hotels of New World China Land (a sub-holding listed company of New World Development) in mainland China, were still managed by Renaissance's buyer Marriott International, under Courtyard brand as of 2003–04 financial year. [17] The other two hotels were Mayfair Hotel in Shanghai (it shared the same Chinese name 巴黎春天; 'Paris spring' with department stores of sister company New World Department Store China) and New World Hotel in Shenyang. A strategic alliance was also formed with Marriott International in 1997–98 financial year. [18]

The management contracts of the Courtyard hotels of the NWD group had expired in years 2010 to 2011. The Courtyard by Marriott Beijing became pentahotel Beijing in 2010–11 financial year, [19] while New World Courtyard Hotel, Shunde became New World Hotel Shunde. [9] :97 Both hotels were managed by New World Hotel Management, a unit of NWD group at that time.

New World Hotel Management

Circa 2006, New World Development group started to focus on re-expanding its own hotel management unit for new hotels of New World China Land (NWCL), [20] :27 as well as for those hotels that the management contract were expiring. The unit, known as New World Hotel Management Limited, was incorporated in Hong Kong in 2005. [10] The 65% stake of the parent company of the unit, New World Hotel Management (BVI) Limited, was acquired by New World China Land along with Beijing New World Property Management Limited for HK$1.404 million in August–November 2006. [20] :160 The stake of New World Hotel Management (BVI), that owned by NWCL, was increased to 70.5% since February 2008. [21] :94 It reached 100% in January 2009.

[21] :95 [23] The Macau company signed a contract in June 2008, to manage L'Arc New World Hotel Macau for 10 years, and renewable afterwards. [21] :95 [23] The hotel was 40% owned by International Entertainment Corporation, a listed subsidiary of privately owned Chow Tai Fook Enterprises group at that time, but not belongs to New World Development group. [21] :95

New World Hotel Management also started to introduce the brand penta to the Mainland China in October 2008, and part of the Mayfair Hotel in Shanghai, became pentahotel Shanghai. [21] :25
