Gulf Hotels Group B.S.C is a public limited liability company quoted on the Bahrain Stock Exchange. It was incorporated in 1967 under the name of Bahrain Hotels Company. The Group Chairman is Mr. Farouk Yousuf Almoayyed, and the current Board of Directors includes distinguished and influential businessmen of Bahrain. The company's vision since its inception has been to provide unrivaled hospitality on the island. This vision was realized with the opening of Bahrain's first five-star property, the Gulf Hotel. Over the years, the Gulf Hotel has undergone significant expansion and upgrades to meet modern-day demands. In 1975, the company acquired the beverage distribution company "Vinsales," which later became Gulf Cellar and was recently rebranded as Gulf Brands International. To cater to the international MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions) market, the company added the state-of-the-art Gulf Convention Centre in 1997, located adjacent to the Gulf Hotel. In 2004, the company expanded outside Bahrain with the opening of the Ocean Paradise Resort in Zanzibar. In 2006, the Gulf Executive Residence, offering 97 luxury apartment suites, was opened to further diversify the company's portfolio. The Group's third property, the K Hotel in Bahrain, opened in 2011 and quickly established itself as the leading four-star hotel in the Kingdom. This solidified Gulf Hotels Group's reputation for effectively managing a broad portfolio of hospitality-related businesses. In 2010, the company acquired a major shareholding in restaurant operator Bahrain Family Leisure Company. In 2015, the group opened the Asdal Gulf Inn, a four-star boutique hotel managed by GHG on behalf of GCC-based owners. In 2016, the company began construction on the Gulf Executive Residence Juffair, a luxury apartment facility with 109 units, set to open in 2018. Additionally, the company acquired ownership of Bahrain Tourism Company, which owns the Crown Plaza Hotel Bahrain and is a major shareholder of African and Eastern Bahrain.
