Rezidor is making global strides with the addition of a new country to its portfolio. The company has just signed the Radisson Blu Hotel & Convention Center, Kigali, slated to open in 2012 in Rwanda.
The 292-room property will feature six dining venues, a spa and fitness center, an outdoor swimming pool and retail shops. The convention center will offer meeting space capable of accommodating up to 2,600 delegates. There will also be seven sub-divisible conference rooms and 10 smaller meeting rooms.
Kurt Ritter, president and CEO of Rezidor says, "This signing symbolizes the new optimism investors have in Rwanda, and further underlines our strong commitment to Africa - this emerging and promising continent is one of our key areas for future business development."
