A large resort hotel, its design reflecting the region's historic architecture, the Cataract Pyramid Hotel is set in 20 acres of landscaped gardens and flanked by monumental, hundred-year old palm trees. With individually controlled air conditioning, the 398 guestrooms feature contemporary decor with fabrics and carpets in rich colours. All rooms have balconies or terraces overlooking the pool and gardens, satellite televisions, direct-dial telephones and Internet connections. Bathrooms come with bathrobes and slippers.
Guests can soak up the Egyptian sunshine while enjoying a cool cocktail in the shade of hundred-year old palms next to the hotel's large outdoor swimming pool. The health conscious can take advantage of the fully equipped gym and ease aching muscles in the sauna and steam room. Ornate, wooden furniture and wall panelling and decorative murals adorn the high-ceilinged, à la carte restaurant, which offers classic, local dishes alongside Mediterranean specialties. Other onsite eateries include an outdoor restaurant, an informal restaurant and a cocktail bar and guests can enjoy drinks and meals in the privacy of their rooms at any hour thanks to round the clock room service. The daily papers are available in the lobby lounge and there is a hair salon and a gift shop. Business facilities include meeting and conference rooms, secretarial and translation services and cell phone rental and there is parking on site. The sights and smells of central Cairo are 10 kilometres from the hotel and the Pyramids of Giza are 20 kilometres away. Cairo International Airport is 20 kilometres and a 35-minute drive away.
