Sarova Hotels makes entry into Kisumu
Sarova Hotels & Resorts Kenya has announced its latest hotel acquisition, the Sarova Imperial in Kisumu city.
This addition is the eighth hotel under the group’s portfolio in Kenya. The move is set to bring a new feel and touch to the hospitality industry in Kenya’s third-largest city, Kisumu.
Sarova signed a management agreement with the owner of the Kisumu hotel in April 2022, rebranding it to Sarova Imperial Kisumu and thus making the hospitality brand one of the major players in the country with iconic properties in Kenya’s four main cities, including Nairobi, Mombasa and Nakuru.
