What Concorde El Salam Hotel Cairo by Royal Tulip has to offer
Korba
Take a taxi 10 minutes from the hotel to Korba, the historic heart of Heliopolis. It’s known for its distinct early 20th-century architecture, which combines Islamic and European styles. Once a hub for aristocrats and foreigners, the tree-lined streets now host a blend of modern shops, traditional coffeehouses and restored palatial homes. Make sure you stop at Abou Haidar for shawarma – the kebabs here are prized by locals.
Getting around
The hotel offers a free pick-up and drop-off service to the airport, which is only 10 minutes away by car. There’s also a free daily shuttle service to the City Stars Mall, which is home to 750 stores – great if you’re looking to bag a bargain! The easiest way to get into central Cairo is by taxi. It’ll take around 20 minutes, and is a very cheap way to travel when compared to getting a taxi in the UK.
Islamic Cairo
With buildings dating from 639 AD, this area of Cairo is relatively modern – if you’re comparing it to the pyramids. But this historic district marks Cairo out as one of the world’s oldest Islamic cities. You could spend days wandering the narrow streets, discovering ancient architectural gems around every corner. There’s the al-Azhar Mosque, which has towered over the neighbourhood for a thousand years, and the Citadel of Cairo, where the Egyptian government ruled through the middle ages. Be sure not to miss the bustling Khan Al-Khalili market, where traders have been coming to sell their wares for centuries. In a taxi, it takes about 20 minutes to get there from the hotel.
