Four Seasons Hotel Alexandria at San Stefano

Directly on the Mediterranean, where Alexandria's cosmopolitan flair meets centuries-old history, lies the Four Seasons Hotel Alexandria at San Stefano. The 29-story tower was built on the site of the former San Stefano Grand Hotel and is part of the distinctive Grand Plaza complex right on the Corniche. Interior designer Pierre-Yves Rochon created the rooms in a classic European style with Mediterranean flair, while a private 500-meter long sandy beach in a sheltered bay offers tranquility away from the city. The main building is complemented by the Seafront Suites, which were added directly on the water in 2019 and offer even more privacy. From the balconies, the view extends to the Mediterranean or the skyline of Alexandria, while the Bibliotheca Alexandrina and the Mahmoud Said Museum are just a short drive away. Here, beach vacation and city trip merge into a stay that showcases Alexandria's Mediterranean heritage in its most beautiful form.

Location

The Four Seasons Hotel Alexandria at San Stefano is located in the San Stefano district directly on Alexandria's Corniche, nestled in the namesake Grand Plaza complex featuring its own boutiques and restaurants. A tunnel under the heavily trafficked shoreline road connects the hotel directly to the private sandy beach, allowing you to conveniently reach the Mediterranean without crossing traffic. The Bibliotheca Alexandrina, the Royal Jewelry Museum, and the Mahmoud Said Museum are just a few minutes' drive away and can be ideally combined with a beach day. The international airport Borg El Arab is about 60 kilometers away and can be reached by car in about an hour.
