Cairo Marriott Hotel

About this place Cairo Marriott Hotel

The Cairo Marriott is the top accommodation recommendation for LGBTQ+ visitors to Egypt's capital. Built in the Gezira Palace ? a 19th-century palace constructed for the opening of the Suez Canal ? and extensively extended, the hotel is located in the Zamalek district on Gezira Island: Cairo's most internationally oriented neighbourhood, home to foreign embassies, the expat community, and the city's most cosmopolitan restaurants and cafes. As part of Marriott International, the hotel operates under a global non-discrimination policy covering sexual orientation and gender identity. Its professional international staff and five-star service standards mean that same-sex couples sharing accommodation will not face difficulties or hostile treatment. The hotel bars and restaurants ? including the Nile-view terrace ? attract a cosmopolitan Cairo crowd of diplomats, business visitors, and international tourists, and represent the safest and most comfortable social environment available to LGBTQ+ visitors in the city. IMPORTANT: Egypt is a high-risk country for LGBTQ+ people. This is not a gay venue. There are no openly gay venues in Cairo. Do not use dating apps while in Egypt. Exercise absolute discretion in all public areas.
