“Where business meets pleasure”, this is the mantra that best depicts the kind of experience you will enjoy at Four Points by Sheraton, one of Nairobi’s elite hotels. This slogan hopes to capture both Kenyan and international travelers looking to have a unique and exquisite hotel experience. This was the aim of the international hotel chain, which was among the numerous exhibitors at the Magical Kenya Travel Expo recently held at the Kenyatta International Conference Centre. The annual travel expo, organized by the Kenya Tourism board provides a networking opportunity for players in the tourism industry such as hotels and tour companies around the region to build business connections and transactions.
This year’s expo was the 9thedition of the travel expo, running from 2ndto 4th October. The expo is the must attend event for every traveler looking to discover the best spots to visit and the best hotels to stay at during an escapade around East Africa, for either business or leisure. We managed to attend the expo on October 4, the final day. Having arrived at around 1:30 pm, we had enough time to walk around and discover the various exhibitors as well as what new deals they had for us hungry . Among the hotel companies that caught our attention was Four Points by Sheraton, a relatively new player in Nairobi’s hotel business market. For readers unfamiliar with Four Points by Sheraton, it is an International brand of hotels managed by Marriott International, an American multinational company. The hotel has 278 outlets worldwide, two of which are in Kenya. One at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport and the other in Hurlingham, Nairobi.
