HILTON Worldwide has signed a management agreement for the newly-built 676-room Hilton Makadi Resort, the company’s fourth offering in Hurghada, Egypt.
The agreement is with Afak for Touristic Development and the hotel is expected to open in the second quarter of 2012.
Situated in a prime location in the new area of Makadi Bay, about 30km south of Hurghada and 35km from Hurghada International Airport, the property overlooks the Red Sea with a 400-m, private sandy beach.
“Our brand’s global growth, particularly in the resort and leisure segment, continues at a rapid pace as we mark the signing of another Hilton property in Egypt.
“Hilton Makadi Resort will be a great addition to the market – offering guests our very own Hilton-style, world-class service and forward-thinking approach in a spectacular setting with beautiful Red Sea views,” said Dave Horton, global head, Hilton Hotels & Resorts brand.
