HONG KONG - Great Eagle Holdings Hong Kong Ltd. has announced today that its hotel operating and asset management arm, Great Eagle Hotels International (GEHI) will operate under the name of Langham Hotels International Limited (LHI) with immediate effect. Great Eagle purchased the Langham Hilton, London in 1996, subsequently carrying out a further upgrading of the property that included acquiring the adjacent buildings which today house the elegant Concierge Club, Health Club and Spa. Langham Hotels International also owns hotels in Boston, Toronto, Melbourne, and Auckland and has started construction on a new 700-room, five-star hotel in Mongkok, Hong Kong that opens early next year. A release said, “The decision to rename the hotel business after the London property underscores LHI's belief that the strength of the Langham name is correctly aligned with the ownership of renowned and prominent hotels.”
