Mena House, Cairo
Mena
House lies in the shadow of one of the wonders of the
world, the Great Pyramids at Giza. Surrounded by 40 acres
of scented gardens, this historic palace hotel is only 700
meters from the towering Pyramid of Cheops. The hotel was
built in 1869 and since that time has been welcoming visitors
to Cairo, drawn here by the rich heritage of mosques, churches
and temples. Modern Cairo is an exciting and vibrant place,
bustling alongside its priceless heritage of art and architecture.
The old Palace of Mena House has exquisitely crafted
interiors in traditional style with filigree fretwork and
intricately carved panelling, fine murals, gilding, inlaid
mother-of-pearl and handcrafted mosaic tiles. Furnished with
original works of art and antiques, the interior is that of
a royal residence not a hotel. Outside, the palace blends
into its historical setting with its towers, domes, minarets
and colonnades set among palms, bougainvillea and jasmine
- an oasis of luxury in the desert landscape.
Mena House has rooms and suites in the Palace and Garden wings. All guest accommodation at Mena House is air conditioned with private bathroom. Rooms and Suites are lavishly appointed with traditionally inspired furnishings and rich carpets. All Suites in the old Palace section feature beautiful traditional detailing, murals, screens, panelling, gilding, fine upholstery, original wooden balustrades and arched windows. Guests in the Suites enjoy the privilege of private butler service and 24hr in-room dining.
