Family-friendly riverside stay

On an island in the middle of the Nile, in the leafy Zamalek district, you’ll find this friendly hotel with first-class facilities. The neighbourhood combines authentic Egyptian architecture and charm with modern amenities – and the best of the city’s sights are an easy wander or taxi ride away.

Whether you want to start the day with some R&R or recharge after a busy day of sightseeing, the heated outdoor pool and idyllic riverside terrace awaits. There’s also a dedicated children’s pool. Indulge in the sauna and steam room, treat yourself to a massage, or if exercise soothes your soul, why not pump some iron at the onsite gym?

Kids receive a warm welcome at this hotel – literally, with their complimentary welcome pack – with thoughtful touches, such as the kids’ breakfast experience. Join the little ones for a buffet breakfast spread at the poolside restaurant, which serves up á la carte lunches and dinners later in the day, too.

You can also enjoy a Japanese feast – complete with live cooking stations – at the other onsite restaurant. Top up on light bites and cold drinks at the terrace café, and take in panoramic river views with a brew in the tea lounge.

All rooms at the hotel are air conditioned and feature a private balcony with river or city views.

Find out more about Zamalek

Known for its leafy streets and vibrant cultural scene, Zamalek is an affluent island neighbourhood nestled in the heart of Cairo. The area attracts locals and tourists alike, thanks to its enchanting location on the banks of the River Nile.

By day, you can explore cultural gems like the Cairo Opera House, which stages dance shows and classical music; Sufi Bookstore, which is a popular meeting point for the city’s intellectuals; and the Aisha Fahmy Palace, where you’ll find a rich programme of art exhibitions. For a touch of tranquillity, hop on board a Nile boat trip or enjoy a leisurely walk by the water’s edge. 

As the sun goes down, be sure to explore the island’s eclectic restaurant scene, covering everything from traditional Egyptian dishes to global flavours, then catch a show at the El Sawy Cultural Wheel – a riverside arts venue hosting pop music, theatre, and more – and enjoy drinks and dancing at one of the many local nightspots.
