The prime real estate property developed by Thailand-based Avani Hotels and Resorts in partnership with Kenya-based Fedha Group will be located in the Westlands part of Nairobi where it will be able to tap into the clientele that comprises not just the Multinationals companies (MNC’s) located in the city but also the hospitality industries, such as restaurants.
“ The expansion of Avani Hotels and Resorts into East Africa is the first of its kind, reflecting the growing demand of the brand as it as there are other properties located in the Southern part of Africa,” states the Vice President of Avani Hotels and Resorts, Mr Javier Pardo.
Upon completion, the Avani Nairobi Suites will have 90 rooms having one bedrooms being 100 square rooms, 20 rooms with two bedrooms and ten rooms with three bedrooms, the latter of which have been serviced and featuring 200 square metres, as well as a gym and an in-door swimming pool.
Hotel Resource News says that the foray of Avani Hotels and Resorts into East Africa is also a testament of the real estate partnerships that it wishes to pursue, such as the Kenyan-based Fedha Group and Minor Hotels, another Thai-based hotelier, which has a global presence in Europe, the Middle East and African (EMEA) continents, as well as in Asia.
“ We are thrilled to partner with Fedha Group for the construction of Avani Nairobi Suites, as it is an opportunity to not just launch the brand, but also offer our strong existing leisure offering across East Africa,” says the Vice President of Development EMEA Minor Hotels, Mr Ramine Beham.
“ Fedha Group is proud to add the Avani Nairobi Suites to its hospitality works, and also on partnering with Minor Hotels for the same. The location of the Nairobi Suites is also significant because it has a global status,” says Mr Dhruv Pandit, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Fedha Group.
One of the aspects that gives Nairobi its global status is that it is one of the four cities in the world to have the United Nations (UN) headquarters. The others cities that do share this accolade are Geneva in Switzerland, New York in the United States of America (U.S.A) and Vienna in Austria.
