Sofitel Legend Old Cataract
Two Diamonds

One of the best-preserved historic hotels in the world, the Old Cataract is Aswan's most legendary property — the very place where Agatha Christie wrote Death on the Nile. Its granite terrace overlooking Elephantine Island at sunset is among the most spectacular views in Egypt. Unfortunately, persistent leadership and management problems continue to prevent it from reaching its full potential.
