Baron Hotel
Baron Hotel represents (together with Flamenco Hotel) the top peak of four star hotels in Cairo. Its location is not far from the airport, in the middle of the residence and business district of Heliopolis.

As Cairo Conference Centre, exhibition ground and more is located in Heliopolis area, all four and five star hotels in this area have the special policy that any stay over three nights will automatically be upgraded to higher corporate price for the room/s. This is done as holiday makers and tourists normally get lower prices in Egypt compared to business travellers.

The Belgian banker and contractor Edouard Empain (1852-1929) and who later became Baron Empain, cooperated with Heliopolis Oasis Company and the company for the tram in Cairo. Together they planned and built a full garden city they named Heliopolis targeting the upper level of the society. Baron Empain's own palace is still standing here, and as this hotel was built just by the palace it was natural to give it the name Baron Hotel.

At the hotel you will find 24 hours room service, 24 hours open bank, business centre, health club and sauna, someone to look after children if needed, hairdresser, beauty saloon and shopping area.

Pasha Bar is a popular meeting spot for the area and therefore a place one easily can come to sit in good company - or just to sit and look out at the Indian inspired Baron Palace which during the evening is lighted up by spotlights.
