The largest Sofitel in the world is a modernist landmark on the banks of the Nile, steps from the waterfront promenade and the popular Egypt Walkway. In a location like this, it’s all about views — most rooms overlook the river, as do the hotel’s open-all-day restaurant, open-air garden café, rooftop infinity pool, and a luxurious spa

Moments of calm await by the landscaped outdoor pool or within the serene sanctuary of Sofitel Spa, while 18 state-of-the-art event spaces set the stage for prestigious meetings and glamorous celebrations.
Rooms with a View
Every guest room is a private retreat, defined by its own balcony and framed Nile views.
