Hotel investment conference returns to Nairobi

The Africa Hotel Investment Forum (AHIF) will again take place in Nairobi this year, at the InterContinental Hotel from September 30 to October 1.


The hotel investment conference attracts international hotel owners, investors, financiers, management companies and their advisers.


“I am delighted that we have attracted Africa’s highest profile hotel investment forum back to Nairobi,” said Phyllis Kandie, Kenya’s Minister of Tourism. 


“The African economic growth story is becoming well known. At around 5% per annum, it is a multiple of developed economies and that is appealing to international investors,” said Jonathan Worsley, Chairman of Bench Events, which organises AHIF.


AHIF 2013 was attended by 400 delegates from 20 countries, including government ministers from four African nations.


Confirmed sponsors of AHIF 2014 include Carlson Rezidor Hotel Group, Hotel Partners Africa, Hyatt International, Starwood Hotels and Resorts International, STR Global and Wyndham Hotel Group.
