Hilton to Open New Cairo Outpost with Golden View Developments

Golden View Developments has announced a new partnership with Hilton to bring the Hilton Garden Inn brand to New Cairo’s Fifth Settlement - marking a significant strategic expansion for both companies in Egypt’s rapidly evolving hospitality landscape.

Scheduled to open within a new mixed-use development, the property is positioned near key residential and commercial hubs including Cairo Festival City, Downtown Katameya, and the wider Fifth Settlement area - an increasingly dynamic zone attracting both business and leisure travelers.

For Golden View Developments, the project is part of a broader push into integrated real estate offerings, with hospitality playing a growing role. “By integrating Hilton’s renowned standards of comfort and service, Golden View aims to create distinctive environments that cater to both business and leisure travelers,” says Ahmed El Sayed, Chairman of Golden View Developments. “This collaboration aligns with our strategy to diversify our portfolio and drive sustainable growth across Egypt’s real estate and hospitality markets.”

The Hilton Garden Inn New Cairo Fifth Settlement will offer 170 guest rooms and suites, five meeting rooms, and a suite of leisure amenities including a fully equipped fitness centre, outdoor pool, and a dedicated kids’ pool. Guests will also have access to three dining venues: an all-day dining restaurant, a lobby bar, and a rooftop bar designed for panoramic views and casual evenings.

From Hilton’s perspective, the project signals further commitment to growing its Egyptian presence. “Egypt presents tremendous development opportunities as we continue with our plans to introduce more of our award-winning brands and triple our footprint across the country,” says Carlos Khneisser, VP of Development, Middle East & Africa at Hilton. “We are excited to be partnering with Golden View Developments on a hotel that enjoys such a prime location within a vibrant mixed-use community.”

The move comes amid rising demand for mid-to-upscale hospitality options across Greater Cairo, particularly in fast-expanding suburban districts like New Cairo. With strong proximity to residential zones, office parks, and shopping centers, the Hilton Garden Inn is poised to attract both short-term visitors and long-stay guests seeking reliable service with local access.

Further updates on launch timelines and additional collaborations will be announced in the coming months.
