Where to staywhen youwant to live and breathe themagnificent architectural treasures of Egypt. This former royal hunting lodge, located in the shadow of the Great Pyramids and the Sphinx since 1869, the former only a stone’s throw away, the latter just the other side of the 18-hole golf course. The Oberoi Group has been at the helm since the 1970s, its excellent stewardship garnering it a long list of awards for anything from its service levels to its stunning location. The accommodation is housed in the original Palace or the newer Garden wing, but you should at least opt for a balconied room with breathtaking views of the Pyramids. The suites are lavishly appointed with antique Persian rugs and arabesque furnishings inlaid with mother-of-pearl. Leisure facilities include a pool, tennis courts and mini-gym; Indian, Continental and Egyptian fare on offer in the restaurants, cocktails and dancing awaiting after dark.
