"When
hotels get the broadband it will improve the way they deliver
services. Clients need to communicate by using the internet,
especially tourists who visit the country regularly," ICT
Minister Jean-Philbert Nsengimana said. "When the internet issue
is resolved in hotels, the number of their clients will be increased.
We urge hoteliers to use broadband as a basic service in hotels, and
ISPs to reduce the price of the internet connection which will help
them to get more customers."
Nsengimana
said that broadband access for hotel guests should be part of the
criteria of a good hotel, and pointed out that the whole country is
covered by Internet broadband which Hoteliers should exploit.
The
RDB's head of Tourism and Conversation, Rica Rwigamba, added that
when hotels use this broadband it'll help them value the service they
offer to clients.
Participants
agreed to carry out a campaign in March to raise awareness about the
use of high-speed Internet access in hotels across Rwanda.
