Egypt’s Biggest Hospitality Provider Signs New Hotels in Cairo & Alexandria
Hilton Worldwide, Egypt's largest hospitality provider, has signed an agreement with long-standing business partner, Egyptian Touristic Resorts LLC, to introduce two new premium Hilton Hotels & Resorts properties to Cairo and Alexandria.
The dual signing for the 390-room Hilton Giza Pyramids, located in an exclusive residential and commercial district South of Cairo, and the 195-room Hilton Alexandria King's Ranch Resort, situated 40 kilometres West of Alexandria, represent the 19th and 20th Hilton Worldwide properties to open in Egypt.
Rudi Jagersbacher, president, Hilton Worldwide, Middle East & Africa said: "Hilton Worldwide has proudly served Egypt for over 50 years and today's announcement is testament to our commitment and confidence in the country. The two signings will add significant value to our current, extensive network of hotels and reaffirm our position as the country's foremost hospitality company."
Hilton Giza Pyramids, which is set to be Hilton Worldwide's sixth property in the capital, will command panoramic views of Egypt's greatest tourist attractions including the world famous heritage sites of the Pyramids and the Sphinx. The hotel's 390 rooms include 18 suites and the property will feature a wealth of facilities and conveniences designed to appeal equally to both the business and leisure traveller. Amenities include a large function room, two boardrooms, four meeting rooms, a business centre, a large health club plus spa and an outdoor swimming pool. The property will also boast a wide variety of restaurants including all day dining and three speciality options as well as a lobby lounge and destination bar. The hotel is expected to open in 2016.

On site dining facilities will include a speciality restaurant and an all-day dining option as well as an executive lounge, a destination bar and a lobby lounge.
