Mobile Check-In Arrives at Five-Star Accommodations in Cairo
Once a Royal Palace, the Cairo Marriott Hotel & Omar Khayyam Casino Proves It's as Cutting-Edge as It Is Historically Elegant
(firmenpresse) - CAIRO, EGYPT -- (Marketwired) -- 12/12/13 -- Getting the royal treatment can assume many different forms, but at the Cairo Marriott Hotel & Omar Khayyam Casino, it's an approach that can take a very literal manifestation. Not only are guests indulged with spacious guest rooms, decadent dining and opulent amenities like a world-class casino, but they can also now enjoy mobile check-in for ultimate convenience.
Considering the cosmopolitan nature of Cairo and its visitors, the hotel's new mobile check-in app is just one more example of how this property caters to its guests' every need. The app lets Marriott Rewards members check in up to two hours before their arrival and sends a notification when the room is ready. When guests arrive, they simply visit the Mobile Check-In Desk for an expedited arrival experience.
At this , the debut of the mobile check-in app sparked an exciting celebration. Mr. Tamer Gad El Mawla, a business-solutions manager for a Gulf-based company, received the welcome of a lifetime when he arrived at the hotel. As the first guest to utilize the new feature, Mr. El Mawla encountered impersonators of two key figures in Egyptian history: the Egyptian pasha Khedive Ismail and Empress Eugenie, the wife of Napoleon III. As the hotel exists where a palace once stood independently, and because Khedive Ismail built that palace in the 19th century to inaugurate the Suez Canal and to impress Empress Eugenie, the characters were appropriate choices. After shaking hands with the "king" and "queen" and sipping complimentary drinks, Mr. El Mawla was escorted to his room where he also received a book about the hotel's distinctive Zamalek neighborhood along with a personalized welcome letter from the hotel's General Manager.
The mobile check-in app is just one more way travelers can easily take advantage of great , something in which this palatial hotel also specializes.

And its 14 restaurants and lounges, which include an English pub, American eatery and Japanese teppanyaki and sushi spot, answer the perennial question of where to eat in Cairo.
Whatever brings one to this exceptional property, one thing is for certain: From (mobile) check-in to check-out, guests can anticipate the very best of service and amenities.
