Le Méridien, Kuwait City
Le Méridien is an international hotel brand with a European perspective, formerly headquartered in the United Kingdom, with 130 properties. It is owned by Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide.
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.
History
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 — 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 — and the subsequent de-merger of the two companies in February 2001 — 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.

Local Area
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 “Palace 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.
Le Méridien Jaipur is a mere 32 kilometres from the international airport.
