Constructed in 1899, the magnificent historical Sofitel Old Cataract is one of our favourites hotel in Egypt. This wonderful heritage hotel features Moorish architecture and stunning luxurious interiors. The hotel offers excellent service, glorious sunsets and tremendous views over a tranquil corner of the Nile, Elephantine island and Khnum temple.
One of the hotel’s many jewels are its wonderful outdoor spaces including quiet terraces overlooking the Nile, beautifully kept, spacious gardens, and a pristine swimming pool with gorgeous views of the Nile.
Numerous royal members and other personalities have stayed at the Old Cataract Hotel such as the Duke of Connaught, Winston Churchill and Agatha Christie, who wrote “Death on the Nile” during her stay.
Considered one of the top 11 “Hotels to visit in your Dreams” by The Times Magazine, the Old Cataract is a legend itself that guarantees an unforgettable stay.
The hotel offers a good variety of on-site restaurants with terraces and bars. Some we recommend are the 902 Restaurant, which offers excellent French cuisine à la carte and a splendid wine selection. It is open for dinner only. Meanwhile the Saraya offers Mediterranean cuisine at lunch and dinner, and for Oriental dishes try Kebabgy. At Terrace, you can enjoy Mediterranean food and drinks in a casual, laid-back setting while you enjoy the breeze and stunning landscape views.
