Part of the Sofitel chain of luxury hotels, Sofitel Cairo El Gezirah is one of the Egyptian capital’s most prestigious retreats. Located on an island in the Nile, near the affluent Zamalek district, it offers great access to all of the city’s most prominent attractions.
This glamorous 5-star hotel overlooking the Nile is a fascinating blend of Ancient Egyptian and Arabic influences with elegant French Art Deco design. Guests have no fewer than 433 lavish rooms to choose from, in addition to 50 sumptuous suites with butler service. Dining options are also plentiful: from the Kebabgy, a traditional Cairo restaurant where tasty barbecued meat is grilled before your eyes, to the Moroccan-themed La Palmeraie, to a whole host of eateries serving fine international cuisine, like Sud and Le Deck. There are quite a few bars as well, which can be the perfect setting for a great night out, or as the aptly named Window on the Nile, an ideal spot to relax while admiring the majestic river.
All of this and more makes the Sofitel Cairo El Gezirah Hotel an excellent place to stay if you want to make the most of your Egyptian trip.
