Well, the place to look for good quality hotels in Kitui is
within the Kitui town CBD itself.
It is within the Kitui CBD where,
for instance, you can find the Kiembeni Hotel, a world class facility that is
nonetheless still affordable to many. It is also within the Kitui town CBD that you can find the San Marino hotel, yet
another world class facility with all the amenities that one would ask for in a
hotel. Other hotels that are said to be good within the Kitui CBD
are Igloos , Kitui Villa and Talents Hotel. There is also this hotel that is to
be found right above Sombe Furnitures in Kitui town, and it looks like a decent
low budget hotel…
The rise of decent hotels within Kitui is attributable to
the growth of a sizeable middle class in Kitui county. So you find that these
members of the middle class want to have a decent place that they can be
operating from, whenever they are in Kitui. Or at the very least, they need to
have decent places that they can spend the nights in, whenever nightfall finds
them in Kitui. I mean, like if you are traveling from Nairobi to Mutha, and 11
Pm finds you in Kitui town, you may decide to spend the night in Kitui town
before proceeding with the journey to Mutha the next day – hence the need for a
good hotel to stay at.
We also have the various NGOs and government agencies that
operate within Kitui county and their senior workers often need decent places
to stay while in Kitui, hence the need for decent hotels.
So
what we can say in a nutshell is that nowadays, there are indeed some high
quality hotels to be found in Kitui town. The way the Kitui town hospitality
industry operates is such that you can find a hotel to stay at for almost any
budget. And looking around Kitui town, you realize that more and bigger
investments are being made in the development of bigger and better hotels –
meaning that things can only get better in the coming days.
