Cairo Marriott Hotel & Omar Khayyam Casino, Cairo

Located in the heart of Cairo overlooking the Nile River, this former palace has been providing its guests with the royal treatment for decades.

Housed in a historic royal palace with two modern tower blocks set in landscaped gardens, the Cairo Marriot blends traditional elegance with contemporary facilities, providing a welcome retreat from the bustle of the city. Located in the exclusive district of Zamalek, many of the city’s most important landmarks - including the Pyramids of Giza and Cairo Tower - lie close by.

Each of the hotel’s many guestrooms and suites come elegantly appointed with luxurious furnishings, every modern amenity and a balcony. Most enjoy stunning views over Cairo, the River Nile and the gardens. When it comes to dining, you’ll find yourself more than spoilt for choice with a total of 14 different restaurants, bars and lounges serving up everything from British pub fare to Japanese sushi platters. Recreational facilities include a connecting indoor and outdoor pool, a full-service spa, sauna and tennis courts. You can even try your luck in the hotel’s 24-hour Omar Khayyam Casino.

  • We have travelled with TUTC six times, the most recent was to New Zealand last year. The trip was very well organised as usual, with excellent accommodation and a wide variety of experiences. We had booked to go to Australia with them this year but due to Covid this was cancelled, Ultimate handled the situation very professionally and promptly refunded the whole of our deposit without any quibble.
