Africa’s hotel sector has the potential for further growth over the next five years, with an increase in the number of foreign and domestic travellers, as well as an expansion in a number of hotel chains on the continent reinforcing the industry's untapped potential, a report by PricewaterhouseCoopers showed on Thursday.

The reports says South African hotel room revenue is expected to expand to R21.8-billion in 2022, up 5.6% from R16.6-billion in 2017. The total number of travellers in South Africa is expected to reach 19.5-million, an increase of 4% from last year.

"Overall, room revenue in South Africa is expected to expand at a 5.6% compound annual rate to R21.8-billion in 2022," it said.

While the fundamentals affecting tourism to South Africa remained favourable, helped by an improving global and local economy, it was impacted by other factors like the water shortage in Cape Town, the country's tourism capital, added PwC.
