Major hotel projects boost Kenya’s rating

Kenya’s hotel room capacity is set to increase by more than 1,500 rooms this year, owing to increased investment by international hotel brands. Eight major hotels under construction within Nairobi are set to be completed by the end of the year, boosting accommodation capacity.

This comes after a new report rated Kenya at position seven in terms of African countries currently undertaking major hotel projects. This is aimed at reducing the huge supply gap in the hotel accommodation segment.
