Kisumu cries out for more hotels

Kisumu, Kenya’s third largest city, is in dire need of accommodation facilities to suit the current business traveller. The rapidly expanding city boasts of a number of hotels, but most of them can hardly match the influx of business travellers to the lake region. While the Imperial and Sunset hotels have held sway for many years, time is ripe for new players in the hospitality industry.

New players in the sector state that with the city becoming the next frontier for real estate development in Kenya, investors putting up such facilities will see a return on their investments within the shortest time possible.
