The Oberoi in Mauritius is one hotel in Africa that tourists must visit, according the latest ranking by travellers. The hotel was ranked number one in Africa, in the 2018 Travelers’ Choice Awards, organised by TripAdvisor to help tourists plan their next destination. In the top 25 hotels in Africa, seven are in Mauritius while the rest are in Morocco and South Africa. In Kenya, Fairmont Mara Safari Club in Maasai Mara National Reserve and Hemingways Nairobi ranked 11 and 22 respectively. Most of the tourists said they loved the ‘‘family vacation and experience’’ at Fairmont Mara and in Hemingways they said ‘‘the food is fabulous and the hotel has a beautiful property with service to match.” The winners are determined after analysing millions of reviews and ratings for hotels collected in a year from TripAdvisor travellers worldwide. Mara Safari Club charges about Sh36,000 a night while a room in The Oberio costs Sh53,000. For destinations, Marrakech in Morocco is the most magical place to visit in Africa. Travellers voted Nairobi in sixth position, saying that it is an energetic city that serves as a fascinating introduction to both wildlife and nightlife. ‘‘Music clubs pulse with life and a mélange of restaurants will tempt your palate. The city is safe to walk in and taxis make other areas accessible,’’ travellers said. emboya@ke.nationmedia.com https://www.businessdailyafrica.com/lifestyle/travel/Hemingways--Fairmont-Mara-best-hotels-Africa/3815716-4589314-15hnmvfz/index.html
