In addition to revitalizing existing hotels, Le Méridien will expand its footprint in Egypt with a new property.

This multi-million dollar renovation program reflects a broader strategy to strengthen Le Méridien’s appeal to leisure and business guests by modernizing design, enhancing comfort and improving event and dining facilities. By investing in key urban and resort locations across the Middle East and Africa, the brand aims to deliver a consistent, elevated experience that meets contemporary traveler expectations while preserving the local character of each property.
