The group is building a substantial new wing to the hotel‚ which will see its capacity more than double from 100 rooms to 237 rooms.

While the group did not disclose the value of the project‚ it said the total value of its projects throughout Africa was about US$100m.

Protea's sales‚ marketing and revenue director Danny Bryer said Zambia‚ like many economies in Africa‚ was showing phenomenal growth and as business expanded so did the need for accommodation.

"Protea Hotel Lusaka's prime position in the capital means the demand is there to invest millions of dollars in the creation of this large new wing, which is expected to open in February next year," Bryer said.

The hotel also offers conferencing facilities for up to 80 people‚

The extension of Protea Hotel Lusaka is one of several across Africa for Protea Hotels and its African Pride Hotels brands. The group will open two new hotels Rwanda and Ghana.
