Novotel Sidi Abd El Rahman, a Novotel Hotel on Egypt’s northern Mediterranean coast is set to open in 2027 and will feature 240 rooms
Accor announced the signing of a partnership agreement with Egypt’s Q Real Estate Development Company to develop a new Novotel property – Novotel Sidi Abd El Rahman. Debuting on Egypt’s idyllic northern Mediterranean coast, an increasingly popular tourist destination, the hotel is set to open in 2027, featuring 240 spacious and modern rooms as well as a host of thoughtful wellbeing and entertainment offerings.
Accor’s partnership with Q Developments marks the Egyptian real estate company’s first hotel project in Q North, a well-established, mixed-use development, located just minutes away from luxury coastal development Marassi. The hotel is accessible by a one-hour 30-minute drive from Alexandria Borg el Arab International Airport and a three-hour drive from Cairo.
Boasting a low-rise build and seafront location, the hotel will offer guests well-appointed, comfortable and modern accommodations, ensuring guests can take time to rest and reenergize. The hotel will feature one restaurant, a trendy café, a pool bar and a rooftop bar – offering panoramic vistas across the Mediterranean Sea.
The property will include a cutting-edge fitness centre, spa, outdoor swimming pool and padel courts – capitalizing on the sport’s rising popularity in the region. Water sports activities will also be available to guests from the beachfront.
Also, it will also cater to the MICE market with a 600 square metre ballroom – weddings and celebrations – and four 50 square metre meeting rooms primed for conferences and team-building activities.
Present at the signing, Duncan O’Rourke, Chief Executive Officer Premium, Midscale & Economy Division Middle East, Africa & Asia Pacific for Accor, said, “This is an exciting opportunity for us to bring one of the world’s most renowned hotel brands to an established, yet developing location, filling a gap in the market for accessible, midscale properties that offer comfort, modernity and energizing facilities. Our midscale signings complement our luxury signings, such as Fairmont and Raffles, showcasing our dedication to growth in Egypt – particularly on the exciting and lesser-known northern coast.”
Signing for Q Developments, Chief Executive Officer Ahmed Thabet added, “This is our first hotel development on this beautiful coastline, adding yet another reason to visit, joining a handful of existing upscale properties. The opening of Novotel Sidi Abd El Rahman will take Q North into a new era – offering an excellent midscale product set to attract both domestic and international tourists looking for a beautiful, relaxing and exciting beach destination.”
