ACACIA HOTEL KISUMU
A new luxury and business international 4 star hotel is due to open in the lakeside city of Kisumu. Being the first ever 4 star in Western Kenya, Acacia Hotel is expected to fill the current gap in luxury and business hotel accommodation, raise the region’s hospitality benchmark and attract more tourists to visit Kenya through their stay in the new landmark property.
Located ideally within the prime leafy suburb of Milimani estate, adjacent to central bank of Kenya and adjoined by the Uchumi supermarket within the new West End mall, the hotel has easy and relaxing view of the calm Lake Victoria and Kisumu international airport. It combines security and convenience, beautiful architecture, a spacious set up and peaceful environment for leisure and business travelers. Its unrivaled comfort in 94 beautifully appointed rooms, 3 spa rooms, a coffee shop, various restaurants, conference facilities, swimming pool on its 3rd floor and gym fill long existing market gaps.
The captivating view of Lake Victoria from atop the deck of the luxurious four-star Acacia Premier Hotel gives one the impression of a high class environment not in the leafy suburbs of the lakeside town but right in the center of the action.

While here, you will forget that you are in the middle of the central business district of this usually hot town as the classy lounge area with a coffee shop makes you feel at home away from home even as a breeze from the lake cools you down.
The bustling sounds of the town, which was created as a Kenya railways terminal, dissipate the moment you step into this latest addition in the hospitality industry.
Swimming pool
On the second floor is a swimming pool, a spa, gym with a bar and grill that complement the serene feel of the breathtaking panoramic view of the lakeside town.
The proximity to the airport, just 10 minutes away when traffic is light, is yet another advantage that the new facility boasts of.
From the rooftop deck, a view of the rapidly growing Riat and Kajulu hills adds to the experience of the stunning Kisumu sunset which can also be sampled from the Buzz Bar, which is said to have the greatest collection of premium spirits in this part of the country.
“Kisumu is ready for a place like this. We have not seen a hotel of this calibre and which offers the same services in this town” said Nazir Khamisa, chief hospitality officer of Simba Corporation which owns the hotel.
Acacia Premier, a sister to Nairobi-based Villa Rosa Kempinski and Olare Mara Kempinski, is looking at edging out its rivals in the class of four-star hotels with its superior service.
With 94 rooms of various sizes, including a presidential suite, the hotel should be on your list of places to visit when in town.
The rooms range from Sh15,500 per person per night for the standard rooms to Sh56,000 for the presidential suite. The rest are charged depending on the advantages they offer for the panoramic view in the five-floor suite block.
The $5 million (Sh450million) hotel which opened its doors to the public last month is the perfect place for business negotiations, among other hospitality services.
Talking to Khamisa, during a visit to the facility recently, he said that their aim is to raise the bar in the hospitality industry in the region.
He said for a long time, the choice when it came to luxury accommodation was confined to one or two hotels apart from the many guest houses dotted around the town. Today, visitors have more choices on where to stay in comfort. Khamisa said it’s for the competitors to follow suit.
“We set foot here to raise the bar in the Western circuit just like we did with our other properties. The Vila Rosa Kempinski and Olare Mara Kempinski have received several awards including the prestigious world travel awards.”
The start of a new year ushers in the feeling of a fresh start as a unique attraction is opening soon in Kisumu City. It’s a new styled superior accommodation, complete with a presidential suite.
