    INTRODUCTION
    The Great Eastern Hotel (officially The Lalit Great Eastern Kolkata) is a colonial
    era hotel in the Indian city of Kolkata (formerly Calcutta). The hotel was established
    in 1840 or 1841; at a time when Calcutta, the seat of the East India Company, was
    the most important city in India. Referred to as "the Jewel of the East" in its heyday,
    Great Eastern Hotel hosted several notable persons visiting the city. After India's
    independence in 1947, the hotel continued its business and later the state
    government took over the management. In 2005 it was sold to a private company
    and was reopened in November 2013 after an extensive renovation..
    HISTORY
    •The British brought modern hotels to Kolkata. The oldest
    was John Spence's Hotel. Spence's, the first ever hotel in
    Asia was opened to the public in 1830. The Great Eastern
    Hotel was established in 1840 or 1841 by David Wilson as
    the Auckland Hotel, named after 
    George Eden, 1st Earl of Auckland, then Governor General
    of India. Prior to opening the hotel, Wilson ran a bakery at
    the same site. The hotel opened with 100 rooms and a
    department store on the ground floor (Spence's Hotel,
    established in 1830 but no longer in existence, is considered
    to be the first major hotel in Calcutta). The Auckland was
    expanded in the 1860s and its managing company renamed
    from D. Wilson and Co. to Great Eastern Hotel Wine and
    General Purveying Co. It was also amongst the first to have
    an Indian on its board of directors, in 1859. It became the
    Great Eastern Hotel in 1915. In 1883 the premises of the
    hotel were electrified, thus probably becoming the first
    hotel in India, to be illuminated by electricity.
    • During its heyday, the hotel was known variously as the "Jewel of the East" and
    the "Savoy of the East" and was prosaically described by Kipling in his short
    story City of Dreadful Night. It was said of the hotel in 1883 that "a man could walk
    in at one end, buy a complete outfit, a wedding present, or seeds for the garden,
    have an excellent meal, a burra peg (double) and if the barmaid was agreeable,
    walk out at the other end engaged to be married". The hotel has housed many
    famous personalities including Nikita Khrushchev and Nikolai Bulganin ,
    Elizabeth II, Mark Twain, Dave Brubeck and possibly Ho Chi Minh .The
    management of the hotel was taken over by the state government in the 1970's
    and continued operations for over 30 years .The state sold it to the private group
    The Lalit Hotels, Palaces and Resorts in 2005. Until its closure for restoration in
    2005, the hotel was the longest continuously operating hotel in Asia.
    The hotel remained closed for a number of
    years for extensive renovations. It reopened
    with a soft launch as The Lalit Great
    Eastern Hotel on 19 November 2013. The
    building is registered as a heritage structure
    and the renovations maintained essential
    features of the building, such as its facade
    and the grand staircase. The hotel has been
    divided into three parts - Heritage I,
    Heritage II and New Block.
