About this property
Houseboat65 - Historic Home on the Nile - Zamalek, Central Cairo
Imagine waking up on a houseboat in the middle of Cairo, graced with the gorgeous view of the great Nile river.
Houseboat65 is a stationary floating house situated in Zamalek island and close to Cairo’s must-see attractions. The place is built entirely out of wood with an architectural style from the 1920s and it is suited for both business and leisure travellers.
Even a year wouldn’t be enough to discover all the jewels of this ancient city. However, a few days on this houseboat can give you a good glimpse of what life is like in Cairo.
