Eid Al-Adha at Four Seasons Nile Plaza
Eid Al-Adha at Four Seasons Nile Plaza This Eid, unwind at Four Seasons Nile Plaza with redesigned rooms, three serene pools, and a diverse dining lineup -from Egyptian classics to riverside Italian to Cairo's most stylish late-night spot. By the time the sun hits the terrace on the fifth floor of Four Seasons Hotel Cairo at Nile Plaza, there's a steady rhythm to the day: the sound of water shifting in the pools, families reading under umbrellas, the faint clink of cutlery from the tables just beyond the loungers. This is not the Cairo most people expect. This Eid Al-Adha, the hotel is inviting guests to experience the city from a different vantage point—where the mood is lighter, the pace slower, and the moments more deliberate. The Fifth Floor Is the Pulse The hotel's elevated terrace is more than an amenity—it's where the stay unfolds. Three outdoor pools are spaced across a landscaped deck, surrounded by wide loungers, soft greenery, and the kind of layout that actually gives guests room to breathe. If you're booked into a Pool Terrace Room or Suite, you step out directly onto the space—no elevators, no detours. You wake up, slide open the door, and the day begins. Rooms That Get the Balance Right The newly redesigned Premium Rooms and Suites have been updated with a soft, contemporary touch. Designed by PYR, the interiors feel fresh but not over-styled: clean lines, neutral tones, natural materials. There are Egyptian coffee table books, small art pieces that don't try too hard, and terraces that face either the Nile or the city skyline. The atmosphere is calm, but not minimal—more edited than stripped back. Dining That Anchors the Stay Food is central during Eid, and the hotel has range. Zitouni, the all-day Egyptian restaurant, hosts an expansive Eid buffet for the first five days of the holiday. Dishes are rooted in tradition - fatta, lamb with freekeh, house-made sweets - served in a space that feels festive without being overdone. If you're after something lighter, Riviera offers Italian coastal cuisine built for summer: fresh seafood, handmade pastas, bright vegetables, and desserts that land gently. It's ideal for a late lunch or a dinner timed to catch the light shift over the river. At Byblos, the Lebanese restaurant, the mezze is authentic, the grill delivers, and the poolside setting is lively in all the right ways. For something with more edge, Bullona holds its place as Cairo's most styled-up nightspot. It's where seafood dishes meet strong cocktails and live DJ sets, and where the room is half locals, half guests who know their way around a late night. A Spa Built for Pause Tucked just off the pool terrace, the spa operates at a lower frequency. No forced serenity, no over-fragranced hallways - just a menu of solid, effective treatments and the option to book a couples' experience built for the holiday. Whether you go for a massage, a facial, or just the quiet, the space delivers on what it's there to do. Cairo, Looser Around the Edges Outside the hotel, the city feels wide open during Eid. There are felucca rides on the Nile at sunset, pop-ups in Zamalek, art shows still running in Garden City, and souks that stay lively long into the night. And on the horizon, the much-anticipated Grand Egyptian Museum is expected to open its doors - housing the full Tutankhamun collection and shifting the cultural centre of gravity just slightly westward. An Eid That Lingers The Stay Longer – Fourth Night Free offer gives guests space to take their time. The pace here doesn't press. The service holds quietly. Whether you're visiting for the long weekend or turning it into a full week, the hotel gives you the stretch you need—and the quiet to enjoy it.
