Hilton Worldwide is set to open a new hotel in Alexandria next year - its second Hilton Hotels & Resorts property in Egypt.

Following a management agreement with Delta for Tourism & Hotels Company, the hotel will feature 158 guestrooms.

Located on the city's Corniche, Hilton Alexandria Corniche will house a spa and health club as well as a private beach and an outdoor pool. Exact spa details will be confirmed at a later date.

Dining and beverage options will include three restaurants, two of which will be speciality, and two bars.

Other facilities on offer are two large function rooms, four meeting rooms, and a business centre.

Dave Horton, global head, Hilton Hotels & Resorts said: "Our portfolio of properties in Egypt incorporates many styles and offerings but all share the well-defined, distinctive company hallmarks of top quality facilities and high standards of service.

"The new hotel will perfectly combine these style and service attributes to create a premium experience for both leisure and business travellers."

Hilton Alexandria Corniche will be Hilton Worldwide's 19th property in Egypt and it's second in Alexandria.
