Local hotel chain PrideInn Hotels has reopened its newly acquired PrideInn Azure in Westlands in a full return in the wake of Covid-19 pandemic.
PrideInn Azure, preferred by business class and events organizers for meetings, conferences and accommodation, resumed operations on Monday, while their inhouse Flavors restaurant, famous for Kenyan and international flavors was opened to outside guests one week ago.
The Sh1.2 billion facility hotel which was acquired by PrideInn Group on a management contract in February 2020 temporarily suspended its operations in March after Covid-19 cases were confirmed in Kenya.
“We resumed operations as we recognized that demand especially of accommodation and meetings is once again rising after the two months lockdown. We are receiving bookings from local business people and especially those coming from towns outside Nairobi such as Mombasa and Kisumu and need a place to spend,” said Mr Hasnain Noorani, the Group Managing Director.

“We are delighted to be able to open in the current situation and have affordable exciting offers for our local customers and ensure that they are comfortable and safe as they enjoy our services. We have as well expanded our Flavors restaurant space to accommodate more guests especially families and friends looking to hang out,” he added
