Hotels in Alexandria |

Alexandria
was established on the shores of River Nile in 331 BC by Alexander the
Great, the Macedonian king. It quickly became a melting pot of cultures
throughout the world, a place where Greek philosophers mingle with academics
in Egypt. The sacking of the famous Library of Alexandria and the Roman
conquest led to the decline of this city, Alexandria and became an insignificant
point on the cultural horizon of the world until the British re-established
the city in the 19th century.
Under British rule, Alexandria flowered as it has not done so in 2000 years, since Roman times. La Bohème across Europe found Alexandria friendly to their sense of adventure and romanticism. Part of this romance and mystery continues to Alexandria. If you visit the old quarters near Pharos, you'll be dragged into the mystery of the city. Staying in a hotel in Alexandria gives you a chance to explore the mysteries of the city at your own pace. The Helnan Hotel Palestine and Sheraton Montazah Hotel are two of the most luxurious hotels in Alexandria. The Hilton Borg El Arab Resort is also one of the Alexandria high-end hotels. The Delta provides the basis for budget travelers. Alexandria also owns many mid-range hotels, as Cecil Sofitel, Mercure Romance and Aida Beach Hotel, which offers a pleasant stay for tourists. |
