Fairmont Nile City

Fairmont Nile City occupies part of the Nile City Towers on the Corniche in Ramlet Boulaq, looking across the river to Zamalek, a short drive from Tahrir Square, the Egyptian Museum and downtown. Its roughly 562 rooms and suites have a sleek contemporary style, many with Nile views. Dining choices include Italian cooking at L'Uliveto, French bistro fare at La Mie, Middle Eastern dishes at Bab El Nil, an Asian restaurant and a deli, plus in-room dining. A rooftop pool with panoramic city views sits alongside a children's pool, while the spa offers nine treatment rooms, a Turkish hammam, sauna and steam room, and the gym is open around the clock. A large ballroom, meeting rooms, a business centre and an adjoining shopping mall make it practical for business. The hotel suits corporate travellers, families and event planners.
