Cavafy's House Visit

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 13 May 2024
I visited the Steigenberger Cecil Hotel in Alexandria in May and had an exceptional stay! The personnel was very polite and extremely helpful! The Front Office Manager Mr. Remon Boules was a great help to me as I was there for business and he made sure to support my every need! I would like to thank him personally and note that his friendly personality and care made me feel safe and sure that he would find a solution and make things work for me and my group.

We spent one night at the Cecil on our visit to Alexandria. The hotel is an Alexandria institution where the great and the good, including Churchill, have stayed in the past. Our room had a plaque saying Elvis Presley! Fantastic views of the Alexandria waterfront from our room and the restaurant downstairs. The hotel is a bit faded but retains its old world charm and is wonderfully atmospheric. Gracious service with a smile.
