Cairo Marriott Hotel
Three Diamonds
Nestled on a tranquil island in the middle of the Nile in the heart of central Cairo, the historic Cairo Marriott is built around what remains of Gezirah Palace — a 19th-century royal guest residence constructed for VIPs attending the Suez Canal's grand opening ceremony in 1869. The restored palace complex now houses the main reception area, multiple cafes, shops, and fine dining restaurants. The property's vast central courtyard contains outdoor cafes, restaurants, and a large swimming pool, flanked on either side by two modern towers built in the late 1970s containing over 1,000 guest rooms.
