Hilton (NYSE: HLT) has announced the signing of an agreement to develop the Hilton Garden Inn Borg El Arab Beach in partnership with Thara Misr for Real Estate Development. The hotel is scheduled to open in 2028 and will offer guests a premium stay in the vibrant Borg El Arab area on Egypt's Mediterranean coast.
Located on a coastline renowned for its crystal-clear waters and stunning beaches, the hotel is an ideal summer destination for both domestic and international travelers. Additionally, its location is just a half-hour drive from Borg El Arab Airport and less than two hours by car from West Cairo.
Carlos Khneisser, Vice President
of Development, Middle East & Africa at Hilton, expressed confidence in
significantly expanding Hilton's presence in Egypt. 'With the Egyptian market
offering immense potential for hotel development,' he stated, 'we are
well-positioned to more than double our portfolio in the coming years. The
North Coast, a burgeoning summer destination, presents strong growth
opportunities. We are actively collaborating with leading hotel owners to
enhance our presence and provide a wider range of accommodation options for
travelers. Hilton Garden Inn Borg El Arab Beach serves as a prime example of
this strategic expansion.
Hilton Garden Inn Borg El Arab
Beach will feature 135 guest rooms and suites, a lobby bar, a pool bar, an
all-day dining restaurant, four meeting rooms, a fitness center, and a gym.
Guests can enjoy an outdoor pool with direct access to the beach. The hotel
will be part of Glee North Coast Village, a mixed-use development featuring a
variety of leisure and commercial facilities. Glee North Coast spans 50 acres
on the beachfront.
Islam Hashem, Chairman of Thara Misr for Real Estate Development, said: 'We are thrilled to introduce Hilton Garden Inn Borg El Arab Beach to the North Coast. As the gateway to this stunning region, Borg El Arab is the ideal location to offer guests the exceptional hospitality experience.'
Hilton currently operates 14 operational hotels across Egypt, with an additional 20 hotels under development, including the recently announced Hilton Garden Inn Zayed and the soon-to-open Hilton Cairo Corniche Maadi.
