Four Points by Sheraton Arusha, The Arusha Hotel will debut in the Tanzania market, adding 106 guestrooms to the country's stock.



Marriott International has opened the Four Points by Sheraton Arusha, The Arusha Hotel, marking the debut of the brand into Tanzania. Founded in 1894, The Arusha Hotel, which has been rebranded after renovation, will operate under Four Points.

The 106-guestroom hotel will be developed in Arusha's central business district near the Clock Tower, the Kilimanjaro International Airport, Mount Meru, the Serengeti Northern Safari Circuit and Mount Kilimanjaro.

Four Points has continued to grow and recently crossed the 200th hotel milestone globally. In East Africa, the brand debuted in Kenya earlier this year with the opening of Four Points by Sheraton Nairobi, Hurlingham. Four Points is gearing up to open two more hotels, Four Points by Sheraton Nairobi Airport and Four Points by Sheraton Dar es Salam, in the next few months.

Four Points by Sheraton, part of Marriott International, operates its 200 hotels across nearly 40 countries and territories in big urban centers, by the airport, near the beach and in the suburbs. Meanwhile, Marriott International manages a portfolio of more than 6,200 properties in 30 hotel brands spanning 125 countries and territories.

With Marriott's new Four Points hotel in Arusha, the group intends to achieve its goal of developing 200 hotels with more than 37,000 guestrooms by 2022. The group has planned to generate $8.5 billion of capital investment and 50,000 direct and indirect jobs through the development process. While Marriott International already operates hotels in 20 African countries, the group is set to debut in new markets, including Benin, Botswana, Madagascar, Mali, Mauritania and Senegal. Also, it has signed 1300 new guestrooms across Côte D’Ivoire, Ethiopia, Ghana and Nigeria. Côte D’Ivoire will get the Sheraton Abidjan and Four Points by Sheraton Abidjan while Nigeria will get the Renaissance Landmark Lagos Hotel and the Marriott Executive Apartments in Victoria Island, Lagos. Marriott will also develop Le Meridien Accra in Ghana and the Protea Hotel by Marriott Addis Ababa in Ethiopia.

Guess hawa ni the same guys leasing one of the towers za AVIC
Yap, slated for 2019 I suppose
So? Mind u that's Arusha..Dar n Zanzibar next while u talk of Nairobi...out of Nairobi Kenya is a slump! [emoji23] [emoji115]
Four points by Sheraton have a hotel in Hurlingham, at the Nairobi airport and in Nyali. They're set to open 3 more by 2020, 1 in Dar, 1 in Arusha and 1 more in Nairobi.

Yani tukiamua ku ignore Nairobi bado wana more presence in the rest of Kenya than Tz. Kisha tukiignore the rest of Kenya tuchukulie tu Nai, they have more presence in Nairobi than in Tz na bado by 2020 they'll have more presence in Nairobi than in Tz. kwani Tz nzima yashindana na Nairobi?

Hata IMF 2017 GDP figures za Africa released and updated this October shows that Nairobi metro's $51bn (65% of 78.5bn) ni sawa tu na Tz's $51.4bn

I see someone mistakenly posted fastjet as Tanzanian, it's a British South Africa plc.

Then do a bit of research before chest thumping and calling others infants

-South Africa - 19awards
-Kenya - 12 awards
-Tanzania - 6 awards
- Morocco /Nigeria/Ethiopia/Rwanda - 2 awards each

Hahah still there r more Tanzanian individual shareholders than Kenyan! BTW where is Fastjet incorporated? So tell us about those Kenyan companies? Can u mention them! BTW costal aviation should be there as African leading Safari charter airline.
 
That Nyali thing is ur dream Sheraton doesn't know that hotel. It is ukunya to yap of a hotel not opened i.e. The one at JKIA.
 
Hakuna mahali popote mlipotupita

Ati more Tanzanian share holders, Geza una shida wewe. Kama haujui kitu uliza, si kukurupukwa na mipovu ya omo na toss

Hii ndio share holding ya fastjet:-
-28.4% to Solenta Aviation (south African)
-19.9% to M&G inv (UK)
-9.8% to Majedie asset mgmt (UK)
-8.54% to GAM Intl (Swiss)
-7.47% to Henderson global (UK)
-5.29% to J.O Hambro (UK)
-20.48% to other minor shareholders

Not a single Tanzanian major shareholder, not even one

it's incorporated in and based in SA
 
Kumbe ni tanzania leading not Africa.
Huko kwenye Africa's leading tumewachakaza mpaka mnaanza kusema fast jet haipo Tanzania na other companies inaelekea mnazijua companies za Tanzania kuliko judges
 
Hohoho, you funny dude. Not meaning to sound rude but do you even know what you just posted?

That is inner country ranking bana. Good example ni hio ya kwanza, "Tanzania's leading boutique hotel - Essque zalu Zanzibar" Uliexpect iwe hoteli toka Liberia ilhali ranking ni ya hotels that are in TZ?

Kwa io hio category ya boutique hotel, Africa's leading boutique hotels were
1-Saxon spa(South Africa)
2-Giraffe manor (Kenya)
3-Hemingway's (Kenya,
4-Lion in the sun (Kenya)
5-The silo (South Africa)

Your Essque zalu didn't even make it to top 10 Africa's best boutique hotel! SMH

Labda maana ya neno chakaza ni tofauti huko bongo. You scoop half of Kenya's total awards and claim you triumphed? Nenda ukadai karo mzazi alilipa shule juu you were brainwashed, not educated
 
Livale umesababisha nacheka hapa kama chizi.
Hehe, nishukuru nimejitahidi angalau kukuongezea kasiku maishani

Ni kukosoa tu nakosoa majamaa hapa. kisha mwingine anasema eti fastjet and abercrombie and Kent are Tanzanian according to judges, eti juu hio picha ya sijui ni FB ama twitter aliyoleta ya kwanza iliziweka under Tanzania. I'm wondering, are your judges the sycophants in FB and Twitter? coz there's no where in the global awards where that was illustrated
 
Fastjet Tanzania (most profitable unit) has Tanzanian shareholders! And falls under those other minor shareholders
