Sofitel Announces New Grand Openings

Tucked away on the island of Gezirah in the heart of the Egyptian capital, the Sofitel El Gezirah is a haven of tranquility.

The mythical River Nile is dotted with islands, including El Gezirah, where the Sofitel is located, in central Cairo. This peaceful oasis with beautiful gardens is the destination of choice for travelers seeking serenity.

Pure lines, exquisite furnishings, delicately colored fabrics and flooring, and urbane lighting all contribute to making El Gezirah a truly exceptional location.

Each of the 50 suites and 383 spacious rooms has a balcony from which guests can take in the splendid view of The Nile and its feluccas, and weary travelers can also relax in the sauna, or treat themselves to a massage in a booth overlooking the Nile River.

A short distance from the government buildings, the hotel is also a popular choice among business travelers, offering conference or banquet rooms with a variety of styles and rich furniture, state of the art audio-visual equipment and the latest video conferencing resources. Groups from 20 to 500 people can be accommodated.
