Exclusive premises in the metropolis on the Nile.
14 January 2021
St. Regis Hotels & Resorts, a Marriott International brand, announces the highly anticipated opening of The St. Regis Cairo. The 39-story hotel rises on the banks of the Nile and is located at the northern end of the Corniche, in the heart of Egypt's vibrant metropolis, not far from the magnificent monuments of the storied city.
Tradition meets glamour
"Egypt has always been one of our key markets and strategic to our growth in the region," said Satya Anand, president of Europe, Middle East and Africa, Marriott International. "Cairo is a destination steeped in history that has long captivated travelers with its incredible energy and vibrant mix of history, culture, tradition and glamour. The St. Regis Cairo is an exciting addition to our rapidly growing brand portfolio and will elevate the luxury hotel industry in Cairo with its outstanding design, uncompromising service and exceptional culinary offerings."
Modern Egyptian Grandeur
With its striking architecture, designed by renowned architect Michael Graves, The St. Regis Cairo is a central landmark far beyond the city, combining opulence with sophistication and elegance. Uncompromising in its decadence, the hotel conscientiously reflects the city's influential and storied past while confidently embracing its vibrant future. The interior is also special, defined by geometric lines that create a pattern that references the region's heritage.
Dark wood, intricate embroidery, bejeweled panels, and carvings adorned with shimmering gold, mother-of-pearl inlays, and imposing crystal chandeliers create a dramatic Egyptian aesthetic with a modern twist.
Opulent rooms provide luxurious relaxation
The St. Regis Cairo features 286 lavishly appointed rooms and suites and 80 luxurious apartments offering unparalleled comfort. Three expansive Royal Suites also feature a private gym, sauna and floor-to-ceiling windows with panoramic views of the Nile. The signature St. Regis Butler service is available in all guest rooms and suites, one of the most visible representations of the brand's forward-thinking service and personal attention.
Exquisite culinary experiences
The hotel offers refined taste experiences offered in varied restaurants, bars and lounges. La Zisa is a modern venue for relaxed dining, serving guests authentic southern Italian cuisine with views of the Nile. Tianma takes guests on a journey to Singapore and is a melting pot of exquisite flavours from China, India and Southeast Asia. The renowned J&G Steakhouse offers a selection of steakhouse favourites, prime meats as well as seafood dishes from around the world. The poolside restaurant and bar, Sirocco, are the ideal places to enjoy a cocktail with Mediterranean and Egyptian dishes. For lovers of urban and chic lounges, Envy is a charming and glamorous place with sparkling decor for a special night.
Another highlight of the hotel is also The Water Garden venue. With its authentic Egyptian interior, it is set to become a meeting place for both guests and the local social avant-garde, whether for the signature afternoon tea or evening ritual. There's also the iconic St. Regis Bar to choose from, inspired by the King Cole Bar at the brand's flagship in New York, where the world-famous Bloody Mary cocktail was born in 1934. It offers an exclusive selection of the world's finest champagnes, rare vintage wines, handcrafted cocktails.
Recreation for body and soul
Spanning more than 1,000 square meters, the St. Regis-branded Iridium® Spa offers guests a range of treatments and customized experiences in a tranquil and inviting environment.
