Alexandria At San Stefano
Classic European grandeur meets modern Mediterranean resort. Formal enough for business, relaxed enough for families in summer. The beach and pool scene gets genuinely lively from May through October; in winter it is quieter and the city-break crowd takes over.
Book a Sea-View Room or higher if you care about the view — Superior City-View Rooms face the city, not the sea
Why It Matters
The only beachfront ultra-luxury hotel in Alexandria, on the site of the historic San Stefano grand hotel. It holds the city's best private beach, the only beach-side infinity pool in Alexandria, and a dining lineup that is hard to match in Egypt outside Cairo.
Nineteen floors of European-Mediterranean luxury rising above the Corniche, Four Seasons Alexandria at San Stefano sits on a peninsula with the Mediterranean on three sides and a San Stefano Grand Plaza mall attached. The hotel stands where Alexandria's original colonial-era San Stefano grand hotel once was — and the DNA shows. Interiors designed by Pierre-Yves Rochon lean into cool blue-and-yellow palettes, gilded ceilings, and sculptural touches that nod to the city's ancient port heritage. There is a private 500-metre sandy beach, multiple pools including a new saltwater beach infinity pool, 10 restaurants and lounges, and a two-story spa — the full resort package, in the middle of an actual city.
