The group recently opened the 109-room ONOMO Hotel Kigali, which includes 10 suites with separate lounge areas and kitchenettes. It is located in Kigali’s Nyarugenge district, a few minutes from the city centre and 9km from the international airport.
Speaking at inauguration, Julien Ruggieri, President of ONOMO Hotels, said: “The hotel sector here is flourishing, positioning Rwanda as a major destination for business tourism. With this project, we are proud to be making our contribution to the development of this high-potential market.”
