InterContinental Hotels
Group has started the final phase of a multi-million renovation project that will transform the iconic Semiramis
InterContinental hotel at the heart of Cairo’s city centre.
World-leading designers ‘tonychi and associates’ have devised a concept for the new-look property which will integrate the essence of ancient
Egyptian culture blended with contemporary international design.
A sense of grandeur will be achieved through a complete upgrade of the main lobby and reception areas, while the Tea Garden and Night and
Day Restaurant will be subject to an overhaul designed to create two unique dining venues in the city.
While the Tea Garden has been redesigned around a central fountain to incorporate a new tea and beverage gallery and an integrated
entertainment zone, The Grill, covering 700 square meters, will include a new wine cellar, private dining rooms, a central oven grill and an open
kitchen. The Grill is also being accessorised with prestigious Christofle silver cutlery and Bernardaud Limoges chinaware to add to the elegant
finish throughout the hotel.
This final stage of renovation follows the earlier upgrade of the hotel's Club InterContinental
lounge, as well as the Executive Club floors and the Cleopatra ballroom, which was given a stunning new look by famous French
designer Pierre Yves Rochon.
Once completed, the refreshed public areas and dining options will perfectly complement the top-of-the-range facilities for both business and
leisure travellers who return to the property for its superior service and extensive state-of-the art business facilities.
With spectacular views over the river Nile, the Semiramis InterContinental has been a central fixture in the city for almost 20 years.
With 727 rooms and suites, more than 11 restaurants and the largest banqueting facilities in town, the hotel has become established as a
premiere venue in Cairo’s hospitality industry and one of the leading hotels in the Middle East.
