It’s massive enough on its own, and it’s connected to the equally hefty Grand Plaza commercial and retail development, which means it’s practically a city unto itself
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Set along the lively San Stefano Corniche, the hotel connects internally to Grand Plaza shopping while keeping the Mediterranean waterfront close.
The rooms
Balconies overlook the coastline, while interiors pair warm pastel tones with classical furnishings and deep soaking Roman-style marble bathtubs.
The pools
Bring a swimsuit.
A heated indoor pool rests beneath a glass skylight dome, and a fourth-floor outdoor pool looks over the sea.
The spa & gym
Dogs stay too.
At the table
Open-air terraces look across the Corniche for evening drinks, and indoor dining ranges from Lebanese mezze to handmade pasta.
inside it manages to feel like an exclusive landmark and retains much of the esprit—including an attentive liveried staff—of the Deauville-inspired original.
How it began

Built on the historic grounds of the colonial-era San Stefano Hotel, the property anchors Alexandria's soaring Grand Plaza complex.
