02Overview
A first look
Along 14th May Avenue, Smouha gives your stay a distinctly urban Alexandria setting, with the city moving around you beyond the hotel lobby. After check-in, settle into your room and use the property as a base between time in the neighborhood and outings elsewhere in Alexandria. This is accommodation rather than a sightseeing package, so the pace and plans beyond the hotel remain yours to shape.
We arrange the booking at The Grand Plaza Hotel Smouha, while the hotel team manages your stay. Room category, meal plan, and available amenities can vary by date, so we’ll confirm the details for your chosen stay before you book.
Background
The facts
