The hotel site is on the eastern bank of the Nile north of karnak Temple in a region filled with trees. The designer has chosen the horizontal extension to insure keeping the hotel height witin 9 meters i.e. lower than the surrounding trees, thus keeping the structure completly hidden from Karnak temple panoramic view. The design subdivided the 300 guestrooms into quadrants connected to central public units by connecting corridors. Each cluster is square shaped surrounding an internal open court. Three quarters of guestrooms enjoy the view of te Nile & its hilly western bank.
