The Definitive Guide to Living in the Capital , Cairo , Egypt

Fairmont Nile City has proudly earned one MICHELIN Key, placing it among the most exceptional stays in the world as part of the MICHELIN’s Global Hotel Selection. The accolade marks a milestone moment for Cairo’s luxury hospitality scene, placing the hotel alongside some of the most distinguished properties worldwide. It also reflects the MICHELIN Guide’s renewed focus on recognising hotels that deliver meaningful, memorable travel experiences anchored in excellence.

An Icon along the Nile

Overlooking the majestic Nile River and the Cairo skyline, Fairmont Nile City has long been a hallmark of sophistication and comfort. Blending contemporary elegance with authentic Egyptian warmth, the hotel offers a refined urban escape where world-class dining, elegant interiors, and heartfelt service come together to create unforgettable experiences.

A New Benchmark for Hospitality

Just as MICHELIN Stars recognise culinary excellence, the newly introduced MICHELIN Keys honour hotels that redefine the art of travel. Each award is based on five universal criteria—architecture and interior design, quality and consistency of service, personality and character, value for experience, and contribution to the local destination.

Earning one MICHELIN Key signifies a truly special stay, where service consistently exceeds expectations and the hotel offers much more than others in its category.

A Moment of Pride

“We are truly honoured to receive this global recognition from the MICHELIN Guide,” said Magdi Gamil, General Manager of Fairmont Nile City. “This accolade is a testament to our passionate and dedicated team who continuously strive to create unforgettable experiences for every guest, reflecting the essence of Fairmont’s luxury hospitality.”

Cairo on the Global Stage

With this recognition, Fairmont Nile City joins a global network of more than 7,000 exceptional hotels featured on the MICHELIN Guide’s newly launched digital platform, bringing Egypt’s capital to the forefront of international luxury travel.
