A brand new hotel has opened recently in Musoma.
The hotel is named Hotel Matvilla.This has been built in the Musoma Emporium (Rao Family) building on Mkendo Street. Those of us who are familiar with the Musoma Emporium building will notice that addition of an extra floor. The owner of this Hotel is said to be the MP of Musoma
The hotel has a total of 25 rooms with a mix of Single and Double rooms all with en-suite facilities, and Air Conditioning. An added advantage of this hotel is that there is an open air restaurant adjacent to it.
The approximate room rate is $15 per night, which includes breakfast.

These are some more pictures from the pictures that Dr Manjul Vasant had forwarded to me. Having been a mere toddler back in Musoma, I honestly do not remember most of our Musoma’s geography. But always found it interesting to hear all the old tales connected with people, places and events connected with Musoma.
For now, hope all of you enjoy these pictures.

I received a few video clips taken by Dr Manjul Vasant, with his digital camera. Those who are familiar with digital cameras will know that video clips are allowed only for a short time, depending on the camera. So the few clips I received via email were each of less than 10 secs in length. I then edited them and created one single clip. This is still quite short but enough to give us an idea of what Musoma is ‘today’.
Feel free to add your comments to the clip. More so on the location and places seen in the clip. Do you recognise the places? Do you have any memories connected with these places?
Enjoy the clip:
