Dow Jones Description

Orient-Express, the name behind an elite collection of travel experiences first came into being in 1883 as one of the world's most exciting and indulgent train journeys. Today those same two evocative words also embrace hotels, cruises and other luxury rail adventures. The Company has offered exceptional luxury travel experiences since 1976, when the company first purchased Hotel Cipriani in Venice and then shortly afterwards, recreated the celebrated Venice Simplon-Orient-Express. Today, the company owns or part-owns and manages 50 businesses, 40 of which are highly acclaimed hotels, each unique in style, from the Mount Nelson in Cape Town and Rio's Copacabana Palace, to the Grand Hotel Europe in St. Petersburg and Maroma Resort & Spa on Mexico's Riviera Maya. There are two restaurants, including '21' in New York, two river cruise operations and six luxury tourist trains.
