Impeccable service and a beautiful setting come together to make this a voyage of discovery.

 

OVERVIEW

Built on the lines of an Edwardian Paddle steamer, the Oberoi Philae offers extraordinary levels of comfort and turn of the (last) century elegance. All cabins

and suites have a private balcony. Oberoi Philae has been awarded the title “Best Cruiser on the Nile” for the fifth consecutive year. It has also received a Green Globe award from the Egyptian Ministry of the Environment for the last three years.

 

LUXURY CABINS

All cabins and suites are fully equipped to ensure the comfort and security of guests. All cabins feature private bathrooms, temperature controls, mini-bar, remote control TV, radios, computerized telephone system, safes and spacious wardrobes. The very highest standards of hygiene and cleanliness are observed throughout. A purified water supply and updated fire safety systems are installed on board. A misty system on the sun deck protects guests from excessive summer heat.

 

DINING

The Philae restaurant offers fine dining in impeccable surroundings. Meals are served on fine china, with crystal, silver plate and white linen all adding to the illusion of country house living. Continental and Egyptian dishes are served here between 7am and 9.30pm.

On the second deck the paneled Lounge Bar is open for drinks, cocktails and soft drinks from 7am to 1am the following morning. In the evenings, The Lounge Bar hosts a discotheque where guests can let off a little steam.
