Dubai-based independent hotel management company Aleph Hospitality has opened the Best Western Plus Westlands hotel in Nairobi, Kenya.
The opening, which introduces the Best Western Plus brand to one of the city's most sought-after commercial districts, marks Aleph Hospitality's continued expansion in Kenya, where the company has already signed management contracts for three hotels currently under development: the Protea Hotel by Marriott in Kisumu, an airport hotel in Nairobi and a property in the popular coastal resort of Mombasa.
Bani Haddad, managing director of Aleph Hospitality, said: "Kenya is a popular destination in the heart of the region, and its travel and tourism industry grew 5.6% in 2018, exceeding global and regional levels, according to the World Travel & Tourism Council. We are proud to be part of this growth and to support the economy with more than 80 new jobs and the generation of additional international visitors that Best Western Plus Westlands will bring."
Best Western Plus Westlands is located in the heart of Nairobi's social and entertainment hub, the vibrant Westlands district, home to shops, restaurants and numerous corporate headquarters, making it a popular destination for Kenyans, expatriates and visitors.
The new, purpose-built hotel features 101 stylish, air-conditioned guestrooms, including spacious junior suites with separate living rooms and kitchenettes and a luxurious Penthouse Suite with a private, outdoor hot tub.
Best Western Plus Westlands offers free WiFi, a dedicated meetings floor, a gym and two food and beverage outlets: Craft, an all-day-dining restaurant, bar and coffee shop, and Asiatic, a stylish rooftop bar and lounge.
