The space
Step through the door and leave Cairo’s rush behind. This bright, spacious and beautifully renovated home brings together classic Zamalek character, contemporary comfort and absolute privacy. The entire flat is yours, with no shared internal spaces, creating a peaceful retreat in one of Cairo’s most prestigious and desirable locations.

Sleep beautifully

The main bedroom features a luxurious super king-size bed, bedside tables and a large wardrobe. The second bedroom offers a king-size bed and its own spacious wardrobe. Both bedrooms are dressed in fresh luxury linen, and fluffy towels are provided for every guest.

A quality double sofa bed in the living room allows the flat to accommodate up to six guests, with four enjoying the greatest comfort in the two private bedrooms.

Refresh and unwind

Two immaculate bathrooms offer strong, reliable hot-water showers, especially welcome after a day discovering Cairo.

Relax, dine and feel at home

Unwind in the elegant living room, enjoy Netflix on the 43-inch HDTV or gather around the table in the separate dining room. The fully equipped kitchen includes modern appliances, cookware and an espresso machine for leisurely breakfasts and fresh coffee whenever you wish.

Fast Wi-Fi, full air conditioning in every room, heating for cooler evenings and convenient lift access make your stay comfortable and effortless throughout the year.

The best of Cairo at your feet

Step outside and discover one of Cairo’s most graceful neighbourhoods, where the city’s energy softens beneath magnificent old trees. Wander through leafy streets lined with colourful houses, elegant villas and beautiful Art Deco façades, then stroll towards the Nile and discover another side of Cairo at your own pace.

South Zamalek combines residential calm, foreign embassies and a secure, reassuring atmosphere with an exceptionally central location. Explore stylish cafés, acclaimed Egyptian and international restaurants, high-end dining, independent galleries, designer boutiques and leading Egyptian fashion and jewellery brands, alongside traditional shops, cultural venues and lively entertainment.

A nearby Metro connection, taxis and ride-hailing services make it easy to explore Cairo Tower, the Egyptian Museum, Cairo Opera House and Khan el-Khalili. For longer sightseeing days, the Pyramids of Giza, Grand Egyptian Museum, the Citadel and historic Coptic Cairo are easily reached by car, taxi or private guide.

For families, couples, first-time visitors and solo travellers, this is far more than somewhere to sleep. It is a glamorous, private and exceptional-value base from which to experience the beauty, culture and excitement of Cairo with comfort and peace of mind.
