What you need to know:

  • Most hotels closed and scaled down their operations at the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic last year.
  • This year has also seen the hospitality industry shift its focus to the domestic market because of travel restrictions.

Most of the historic hotels in the Mt Kenya region remain closed to the public even in this festive season.

Five such facilities shut at different times in 2020 or earlier this year are still not operating even though it is the tourism high season.
