HISTORY
Owner-Operator Since 1972
A Story Written for Over 50 Years
FROM TRADITION TOWARDS INNOVATION
Moon Hospitality is a story that has been written across generations. This journey began in 1972 with the founding of TK Investissements by Temimi Kablouti, marking their entry into the Parisian hotel scene with establishments such as the 4-star Hôtel Le Belmont and the 3-star Hôtel de l’Océan.
In the 1990s, Tahar Temimi and Lamia-Henda Basly took the reins and expanded the hotel portfolio, while refining their expertise and shaping a new client-centered approach to hospitality. With their strong expertise in hotel development, TK Investissements has skillfully responded to the evolving market demands with agility and innovation.
In 2012, Walid Temimi repositioned Hôtel Le Belmont, blending tradition and modernity, while in 2017, Aziz Temimi transformed Hôtel de l’Océan into Hôtel Maison Mère, an innovative lifestyle establishment. This continuous evolution led to the creation of Moon Hospitality, with TK Investissements now serving as its principal shareholder.
