Hilton opened its first Rwandan location on Thursday, October 24, with Zaria Court Kigali joining the Tapestry Collection as the initial sub-Saharan African property under this portfolio. The $25 million complex from NBA champion Masai Ujiri's Zaria Group features 80 guest rooms, along with entertainment and athletic facilities. President Paul Kagame dedicated the venue on Sunday, July 28, as part of the Giants of Africa Festival celebrating continental youth culture.

The property is located near the BK Arena and Amahoro Stadium, in a commercial district, 15 minutes from the airport. Aleph Hospitality will operate the hotel featuring workspace areas, recording studios and an events arena for concerts and sports competitions. Construction began in August 2023 after Kagame and Ujiri initiated the project, which was envisioned as the first of multiple African sites. Hilton operates 64 African hotels, with 106 additional locations planned, bringing the total to 160 continental properties.
