Step into the majestic Sofitel Legend Old Cataract Aswan Hotel, where King Fouad once entertained, and Agatha Christie sipped cocktails! This luxury hotel is housed in a 9th-century Victorian palace that sits on a pink-granite cliff overlooking the world's longest river. It is situated in the Nubian Desert on the banks of the Nile River, opposite Elephantine Island, and blends Pharaonic treasures with French art de recevoir.
