InterContinental Cairo Citystars is only seven minutes from Cairo International Airport and just five minutes from the Cairo International Conference Centre CICC. Guests are assured of a comfortable and relaxing stay in the 790 guest rooms, which include suites, Garden Wing, Poolside rooms, and 1 to 4-bedroom residence suites.

For those traveling to Luxor, the Pyramisa Isis Hotel is one of Luxor finest hotels. The Isis Luxor Hotel is an ideal starting point for trips to the major ancient sites in Egypt. Luxor combines the traditional Egyptian lure of the Nile with the easy hospitality of its people.

Each of the 400 rooms and 50 luxurious 1 and 2 bedroom suites are comfortably designed and most have panoramic views of the Nile, the 8-acre gardens, a swimming pool, and the famous West Bank of Luxor. It is the perfect resort for families and long staying guests.
