AN association of hotel owners in Soroti, has been formed to monitor provision of quality hospitality.
The Soroti Hotels Owners Association (SHOA) interim chairperson, Henry Onaba said lack of standard hotel services in Soroti, had partly contributed to under exploitation of the district's tourism potential.
He said as a stop-over to most expatriates and tourists travelling to and from Karamoja, Soroti required better services.
“There are a lot more untapped tourist potentials in Soroti which will only be exploited with better hotel facilities in place," Onaba told The New Vision in an interview last week.
He said the association would also conduct training for the staff engaged in hotel services. He said up-country hospitality providers had been disadvantaged by the fact that a big percentage of their staff are untrained. "We also want to instill in hotel owners here a sense of honesty to be able to give the customers value for their money," Onaba said.
