Proposals sought for new American Samoa hotel

14:14 pm on 26 October 2015

The American Samoa Government is asking for proposals for a major 250-room hotel development in the territory.

The initiative would see a three-and-a-half star hotel developed on the site of the old Rainmaker Hotel, which was demolished earlier this year after sitting deserted for more than a decade.

The Government is seeking proposals for the design, building, financing as well as operations and maintenance of the new hotel.

It wants it to be run by a major recognised hotel brand, and have the option to include space for a casino.
