Two large international hotel groups are planning expansions into South Africa following the success of the World Cup.

Hilton Worldwide is setting up a development office in Cape Town and intends to open hotels in all the main cities in this country.

It is headed by Derek Anderson, the newly appointed vice-president of development for sub-Saharan Africa, who will be looking for local partners to develop new hotels or to manage existing hotels.

The second hotel group, Marriott International, is in talks for a possible hotel in Johannesburg and is looking for other opportunities in South Africa.
