$400,000 for Bulawayo Rainbow Hotel refurbishment

Rainbow Tourism Group (RTG) says it has set aside at least $400,000 to refurbish the Bulawayo Rainbow Hotel. The refurbishment follows similar exercises at Rainbow Towers and the Kadoma Hotel and Conference Centre.

In a statement, RTG spokesperson Eltah Sanangura said the refurbishment of Bulawayo Rainbow Hotel which started in January this year had already led to the tiling of 39 first floor rooms and carpeting of 141 rooms from the second to the fifth floors of the hotel.

She said Bulawayo Rainbow's exterior would undergo a similar facelift in the fourth quarter of this year and the facelift would extend to the hotel lobby whose main entrance table would be converted into a fountain.

She added that apart from the product improvement initiatives, they were also investing in human resource capital through continuous service improvement and training programmes that would see service delivery improve significantly.

Bulawayo Rainbow Hotel has 180 en-suite rooms which include executive suites and a presidential suite.
