Marriott Mena House, Cairo

Our Favorite Hotel Rooms With a View in 2023

"The Marriott Mena House near Cairo famously has rooms with views of the Giza Pyramids and, as expected, it’s gobsmacking to wake up, fling open the curtains, and see the ancient structures looming in front of you. It feels like you’re hanging out with a slice of ancient Egypt, especially since the pyramids continue to be visible at the restaurant, from the courtyard, even while on a few machines in the gym (a nice reward for making it there on your vacation). If you’re looking for a sleek high-rise stay you’ll have to head into Cairo proper, but the pyramid-side setting here is a novelty that’s hard to forget."
