About history :

We have a long and established history, and are proud of our Asian heritage.
The Group began with the opening of its flagship property, The Mandarin, in Hong Kong in 1963, which soon built up an enviable reputation for luxurious service. In 1974, Mandarin International Hotels Limited was formed as a hotel management company. The Group’s intention was to expand into Asia and operate hotels that would reflect the standard of service synonymous with their property in Hong Kong. In 1974 the company’s hotel interests expanded further through the acquisition of a 49 percent interest in The Oriental, Bangkok. The Oriental was already a legendary property and acknowledged as one of the world’s great hotels. Through the management of both The Mandarin in Hong Kong and The Oriental in Bangkok, the Group was in an unusual position of having two “flagship” hotels whose names represented the best in hospitality. In 1985, the Company rationalised its corporate structure by combining these two prestigious properties under a common name, Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group.

Organization structure :
Organizational structures include multiple departments, managers and branches to extend full-service luxury accommodations and amenities. All hotels divide their operations into two basic categories: administrative and guest operations. Administrative personnel handle the hotel’s paperwork, accounting, human resources and office work responsibilities. Operations employees handle the general functions of the hotel. This includes checking in guests, coordinating events, cleaning rooms and maintenance duties.
