For many Cairenes, a perfect summer day is a day best spent out of town, where there’s nothing but sun, sea and sand. However, with its top-notch hospitality, colourful spectrum of facilities, activities and restaurants, one of Cairo’s top hotels, Four Seasons Nile Plaza, offers you a perfect, all-inclusive summer day, right here in the capital, from the moment you wake up till the moment you go to bed…
8 AM: Wake up to a picturesque scenery that overlooks some of Cairo’s landmarks, including Cairo Opera House, The Citadel and, of course, The River Nile, before breakfasting at Zitouni restaurant, where an array of authentic Egyptian dishes is awaiting, as well as a croissant live-station, for those who like to begin their day with a French twist.
10 AM: While everybody’s rushing to work, jump in any of the pools perched on the hotel’s rooftop, where there’s always a perfect outdoor spot to get your tan and a secluded indoor area, if you are seeking some quiet quality time. Top this session with an after-pool snack from Pool Grill, where you can enjoy a variety of dishes, drinks, plus endless choices hookah flavours and ice cream from the seasonal ice cream station.
3 PM: It’s time to take a break and relax before the night sets in; elevate your body and soul with one of the many treatments and massages performed by expert therapists at Four Seasons Nile Plaza’s Spa; you can also treat yourself with an exquisite Hammam, be it Moroccan or Turkish, or experience being a royalty with the spa’s Cleopatra treatment. Follow this session with a wholesome Italian dish from the award-winning restaurant, Bella, or keep it simple and chilled at Upper Deck, whose handpicked menu caters to every taste.
6 PM: There’s nothing better than watching the sun going down on The Nile in a gently-rocking felluca, before heading back to the hotel, where an equally unique experience is awaiting at 8 Restaurant, with its endless variety of authentic Chinese dishes that would make a perfect dinner after a long day, including their signature shark fin and bird’s nest soups.
10 PM: The Night is not getting any younger, so it’s high time you enjoyed a good conversation over a drink or two at The Bar, before hitting the dance floor at Graffiti Bar & Lounge, where you can shake it to the beats of some of Cairo’s best DJs and live entertainers.
And that’s what we call a day well-spent at Four Seasons Nile Plaza! For more information on any and all of the above, call 02 27917000 or check out the Four Seasons Nile Plaza on Facebook.
