DAR ES SALAAM, 11 July, 2015 - The increasing number of travelers in Africa has led to most regions developing large numbers of hotel chains; in 2012 the brand of international hotels was 79 in North Africa and 129 hotels in Sub-Saharan Africa, this number is still growing with the aim of making the best visibility of all regions in Sub-Saharan and North Africa; (Africa Investor, Tourism report 2012).

In the process of making this visibility possible, Jovago as Africa’s No.1 hotel booking website, intends to bring every bit of offered accommodation online providing customers with the cheapest way to make their bookings.

With the yearly increase of the number of hotels, Jovago has managed to increase its listings from 1000 in 2013 to 25,000 in 2015 this July, “It is a good sign that most of the hotel managers understand the importance of making their business more digital. People can easily book their destinations through websites” Andrea Guzzoni , country manager of Jovago Tanzania explains .

“We have partnered with almost 700 hotels in Tanzania including 144 hotels in Zanzibar, 75 in Arusha, 136 in Dar es Salaam, 32 in Mwanza, and many more across Tanzania. This is a very good result but it`s only the beginning, the potential in Tanzania is still huge” he added.
