The Leading Hotels of the World, Ltd. is a hospitality consortium owned by Hotel Representative, A.G. It represents over 430 hotels and resorts worldwide. Headquartered in New York City, the consortium maintains offices in 24 cities world wide.

The Leading Hotels of the World started as a reservation service for independent hotels. It is now a full-service hotel consortium which supports sales and marketing, advertising and public relations, financial services, quality control, and hotel inspections for its member properties.[1] It is not a hotel chain itself; its member hotels are typically independents, though some are themselves individual properties that are part of chains. The Leading Hotels of the World has formed strategic alliances with another similar consortium, Relais & Châteaux. Leading Hotels of the World is an example of affiliate marketing.

The company was established in 1928 under the name "Luxury Hotels of Europe and Egypt".[2] It initially had 38 member hotels, including Hotel Negresco in Nice, the Mena House in Cairo, and King David Hotel in Jerusalem.[3]

As of 2011, Andrea Kracht, proprietor of Baur au Lac in Zurich, Switzerland, is the chairman of Hotel Representative, A.G., and Theodore (Ted) Teng is the president and chief executive officer.[3] It currently maintains a network of 24 offices around the world.

In March 2013 it launched its newly redesigned website, http://www.lhw.com/. The site has an entirely different look and feel, enhanced functionalities, and richer, more in-depth content. Completely rebuilt from the ground up, it operates on a state-of-the-art hardware platform and employs the latest techniques in web programming trends. Seen as just the beginning of the implementation of a totally new digital strategy, the site is an aggregation and distribution point for the company’s hotel inventory, and offers rich educational and inspirational content. The progressive, fluid design, inspired by print techniques, was created with the iPad and other tablets in mind.
