City Lodge Hotels Limited has announced that construction of its 147-room City Lodge Hotel Dar es Salaam has been delayed due to outstanding regulatory approvals that were affected by Tanzania’s recent general election.
“It is expected that construction will commence within the next few months and that the hotel will open towards the end of the second quarter or early in the third quarter of 2017,” the group said in a statement.
