Accor, a world-leading hospitality group, is reinforcing its presence in Egypt with a pipeline of 22 new hotels comprising more than 7,000 keys, directly contributing to the tourism and urban development goals of Egypt Vision 2030, Invest-Gate reports.

With 38 operating hotels (+13,000 keys) across luxury, premium, midscale, economy, and lifestyle segments with Ennismore, Egypt is one of Accor’s most strategic markets in the Middle East, Africa, and Türkiye. The Group’s nearly 45 years of presence in the country underlines its long-term commitment to Egypt’s economic transformation, tourism diversification, and urban growth.

Accor is expanding across key destinations, including Cairo, New Cairo, the New Capital, North Coast, and suburban hubs. Recent highlights include Mövenpick Cairo West, a 220-key hotel in West Cairo, and Sofitel Cairo Downtown Nile, the world’s largest Sofitel with 615 rooms, strengthening Accor’s luxury presence in the capital. The Group is also developing Swissôtel Ras El Hekma, Swissôtel Residences Ras El Hekma, and Novotel Sidi Abd El Rahman to support coastal tourism on the North Coast, alongside a growing focus on branded residences.

Ms. Maya Ziade, Chief Development Officer, Premium, Midscale & Economy Division, Middle East, Africa and Türkiye at Accor, said: “Accor’s diversified expansion in Egypt reflects our confidence in the market’s potential. By partnering with governments and local stakeholders, and leveraging our wide brand spectrum, we support Egypt Vision 2030’s tourism and economic goals while offering owners strong returns and unique market opportunities.”

Mr. Jean-Baptiste Recher, Chief Development Officer, Luxury Division, Middle East, Africa and Türkiye at Accor, added: “Our strategy is to deliver hotels with a strong sense of place and memorable experiences, particularly through our MGallery and Emblems Collection brands. We also see strong growth in branded residences under our flagship luxury brands. The opening of Sofitel Cairo Downtown Nile and the upcoming Sofitel Legend Pyramids Giza highlight Accor’s ability to set new benchmarks in Egypt’s hospitality market.”

Accor currently operates more than 350 properties across the Middle East, Africa, and Türkiye, with plans to add over 150 new addresses by 2028, further cementing its role as a driver of the region’s hospitality growth.
