Four Seasons opens landmark property on the eastern banks of the
Nile in Cairo 


TORONTO, Aug. 20  /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts
continues its worldwide expansion with the opening of Four Seasons Hotel Cairo
at Nile Plaza. The contemporary 366-room Hotel, is conveniently located in the
heart of the city's elite Garden City district.

"With the opening of our second hotel in Cairo, we are offering our guests two
completely distinct experiences on opposite sides of the Nile," said Wolf
Hengst, President, Worldwide Hotel Operations, Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts.

"Our first property, which opened in 2000, has an intimate and residential
atmosphere while the new hotel is much more contemporary in design and feel."

Boasting spectacular views of the Nile on one side and the centuries-old
Citadel on the other, Four Seasons Hotel Cairo at Nile Plaza offers a
prestigious new address for both business and leisure guests. Situated amidst
the business and diplomatic district, it is also ideally located for access to
the city's many ancient monuments and areas of cultural importance.

The airy, open concept spaces of the lobby are indicative of the contemporary
design found throughout the Hotel. Silk wall coverings and curtains in warm
tones of pale green, taupe and beige, modern chandeliers of hand blown glass
and contemporary artwork from around the world create a distinctly fresh
atmosphere. The Hotel's 78 spacious suites and 288 large guest rooms are
equally contemporary in design, with shades of taupe or teal complimented by
light woods. Many of the rooms feature private, furnished, outdoor terraces,
perfect for relaxing or dining al fresco.

The hub of activity within the Hotel will centre around its seven dining
venues, each offering specialties from different parts of the world. Its
Mediterranean, Cantonese, Italian and seafood restaurants feature modern
interpretations of authentic dishes. Casual meals, cocktails and refreshments
can be enjoyed at each of the three lounges within the Hotel.

In contrast to the activity level around the restaurants is the fifth floor,
which is entirely dedicated to the art of well-being and relaxation. Here
guests will find the city's largest Spa and Wellness Centre, offering a variety
of treatments including some inspired by ancient Egyptian beauty rituals.
Adjacent to the Spa is an expansive outdoor terrace, overlooking the Nile. With
three swimming pools, a Pool Bar and Grill, a dedicated children's play area
and several private pool cabanas, the terrace is a relaxing place to unwind.
