Joie de Vivre Hotels embarked on its mission to "create joy" for guests and employees in 1987, when Chip Conley founded the innovative hospitality company in San Francisco. Each one of Joie de Vivre's more than 30 hotels is an original concept designed to reflect the local community and engage the five senses so that guests enjoy authentic, memorable experiences. Today Joie de Vivre manages the largest collection of boutique hotels and resorts in California and is expanding outside the state with the opening of The Saguaro in Scottsdale, AZ in November 2011 and Hotel Lincoln in Chicago in early 2012.
Joie de Vivre Hotels is part of a new lifestyle hotel group, provisionally called
JT Hospitality, which was formed on Oct. 1, 2011, with the merger of Joie de Vivre Hospitality and
Thompson Hotels. The merger was the first step in the creation of a multi-brand lifestyle hotel group with a global footprint. JT Hospitality manages 45 properties under the distinctive Thompson Hotels and Joie de Vivre Hotels brands.
