Sofitel Old Cataract
Re-opened in September 2011 following extensive renovations, the Sofitel Old Cataract is perched on a shelf of pink granite, overlooking the Nile, with wonderful views towards Elephantine island & the beginnings of the Western Desert beyond.
Behind its Victorian facade, the hotel retains its original beauty, receiving visitors in the historic lobby with polished marble floors and high, classic Islamic arches.
Rooms and suites are split between the Old Palace Wing where heritage and character is the focus or contemporary elegance in the Nile Wing. Rooms offer a choice of garden or Nile view & some have a balcony or terrace.
Facilities at the hotel include a Spa, indoor heated pool, Jacuzzi, sauna, hammam and gymnasium as well as 2 outdoor pools, one heated and one unheated.
A wonderful place to relax and enjoy the beauty of Aswan in luxurious yet traditional surroundings.
