Now politically incorrect, this style originated in a 19th century font called Chinese Wong.
Digital versions abound under various names.
Mandarin looks like a match.

The diabolical pointed lettering as seen in _p_ is based on a 19th century series of fonts variously known as Lafayette, Johnsonian, Webster, Washington etc.
http://forums.typeheritage.com/topic/lafayette/
Should be some digital versions published. Dan X. Solo included Lafayette in one of his Dover Publications alphabet books, cira 1998.
The triangle serifs are "Latin" as in Latin CT. Not identical but similar.

Help? I agree with Champion Gothic.
Use the Bantamweight. 100% match.

Interesting comment on typefaces that influenced the Beverly Hills Hotel signage, by Allan Haley in 2013:
---- start quote ----
In 1940, a new wing was added to the hotel by architect Paul Williams, who was reportedly also responsible for the now legendary signage. While based on hand lettering rather than a typeface design, the script is indicative of typefaces drawn in the 1930s and 1940s. You only need to look to the Coronet, Gillies Gothic or Park Avenue typefaces (all designed in the 1930s) to see the heritage of the Beverly Hills Hotel lettering. Tall sweeping ascenders that serve as elegant counterpoints to the design’s diminutive x-heights mark each typeface. Generously flowing capital letters also add to the stylish and expansive nature of the designs. - See more at:

Custom, apparently by France HQ and agency Saguez & Partners. But nothing on the current website

Similar but not identical, Helvetiquette Bold.
Also similar, Gotham.

Corrected Post -- original version had wrong link.
My post dealt with the word _Neilson_.
The new logo runs the letters together and attempts to make them into a script, a poor idea for blackletter.
I prefer the soft version that came before this one.

Your image is apparently derived from the outside sign

Compare to to the lettering as used in a letterhead or card
http://www.myfonts.com/WhatTheFont/forum/case/52359/
Has a few additional letters.

Custom lettering, monoline with an Art Deco style.
Far from a match to the letterforms, but for a similar tone you might substitute something like Grand Hotel.

_Neilson_ is a softened version of the old logo used by this Canadian Dairy, as shown in an ad from 1923

With some heavy editing, Old English could be used to create either logo.

Small scale makes it impossible to identify details but the letters have some similarity to compressed/condensed Latin fonts.
Could get a rough approximation if Sheepman was compressed horizontally.
But there differences, such as the rounded bowls on _P_ and _R_

Seems to be custom lettering perhaps based on editing ITC Pump Light. Close the gaps etc.
Don
You already have it if your computer uses Windows and/or MS Office.

Dharma Gothic Bold is the closes that I can find.
Don
Lettering. Note variation in repeating letters.
Don
Perhaps this one.

_ARAWNG_ is a bold Clarendon.
Some further digging might produce a closer match, but Clarendon Text Bold would work in a pinch.
Don
Perhaps not a font as such. Uppen Arms NF could be modified to make the logotype.
