HONG KONG The Hongkong and Shanghai Hotels, operator of the luxury Peninsula chain, has made a big name for itself with a relatively small set of properties.
Its current hotel count -- 10 -- pales in comparison to those of fellow Hong Kong-born groups Shangri-La Asia and Mandarin Oriental International, but what it lacks in size it makes up for in per-room earning power. It is also on an expansion kick: New Peninsulas are in the works in London, Istanbul and Yangon.
