A must read MOMBASA HOTELS Do you guys know that Mombasa has more quality hotel rooms than whole of Uganda hotel rooms combined, yes just Mombasa! The hotel am staying at has many hotel rooms and apartments and they are turning away visitors and so are other hotels of its level now. Of course Mombasa has its set of issues like any other place but it’s promoted as MOMBASA RAHA meaning Mombasa has pleasure. This hotel easily makes between usd 15m to usd 20m dollars a year and that gives the owner a chance to grow, employ more people. Kampala with fewer hotels has an occupancy level of 25% averagely, Kampala as a city has no single marketing plan by KAMPALA CITY COUNCIL. Hotels need an occupy of 35% order to be break even just profitability starts at 40% upwards, reason hotels in Kampala and uganda struggle with loans. Leave a lone Kenya, Mombasa is marketed as Mombasa and it has head of tourism who wants Mombasa to grow and is very hard working. The biggest challenge in developed countries is actually loneliness and Kampala has the vibe the rich love to enjoy and if we positioned ourselves, Kampala would beat many cities in Africa. When hotels are full, it means visitors are in town, it means shopping malls will be busy, fuel stations get more business, transporters make money. It means banks make money, restaurants make money, entertainment makes money, food suppliers make money, crafts sellers make money. It’s not a problem of Kampala alone, all other cities or towns in Uganda need an awake leadership, create activities that attract spenders. @BalaamBarugahar first congratulations on becoming a minister of local government and I would be happy to sit with you and we push these ideas. @BalaamBarugahar come to Rwenzori marathon and see how this idea creates opportunities for the people of kasese and the surrounding towns. Right now, most of the hotels are fully booked around kasese and the surrounding villages because of Rwenzori marathon and we are talking close to 2500 rooms of all types.
