Affected by more than 10 years of civil war, the acceptable hotel supply in Sierra Leone is very limited and concentrates mainly in Freetown.

Showing strong potential for growth, the hotel market has hence experienced significant changes since 2010, with the development of new properties and the arrival of branded supply.
