Nestled in Nyarugenge District, the newest three-star property is located within a walking distance from the Kigali City Centre and below 10km from the Kigali International Airport, Rwanda\u2019s primary point of entry.<\/p>\n

It is adorned with traditional baskets locally known as \u201cibiseke\u201d and carvings known as \u201cImigongo,\u201d plus embellishments in cow dung mixed with soils of different colors and painted in geometric shapes, all making the motif of the interior and exterior features.<\/p>\n

Speaking at the launch on Thursday, Samantha Annandale, Regional Operational Director for South and East Africa assured locals and attendants of an essence of character with quality at ONOMO Hotel Kigali.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith so many international companies exiting in Africa and investment leaving our shores, it is encouraging to see that our group has a fully focused African strategy. We have exceptional confidence in Rwanda and generally Africa, especially in the hospitality space and with our strong development pipeline, we aim to become one of the leading hotel chains in Africa, for Africa.\u201d she added.<\/p>\n

ONOMO Hotel Cape Town\u2019s Director of Sales and Marketing and facilitator at ONOMO Hotel Kigali, Sherri-Lee Kriedemann told IGIHE that the hotel has come to bridge a gap in the Rwandan hospitality industry<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve come as a three-star property with four-star facilities to close the gap in the market and become an affordable yet world-class travel end for those visiting Kigali with a budget that can\u2019t afford five-star facilities,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

She noted that regardless what market segment it is, the hotel stands out to attract visitors from all over the world, be it for leisure or corporate purposes.
\nONOMO Hotel Kigali is the 10th hotel of the group in Africa. <\/p>\n

Operating across the entire African continent, ONOMO Hotels Group is on track to create its planned pan-African network of over 20 hotels by 2023, situated in the African continent\u2019s major cities. The group has already spread a footprint to Dakar, Abidjan, Libreville, Bamako, Lome, Conakry, Cape Town, Johannesburg, Durban and its most recent opening in Kigali, establishing the Group\u2019s expansion into the East Africa.<\/p>\n
