Description
Mövenpick MS Hamees
Experience that timeless kind of magic on the River Nile, onboard the Mövenpick MS Hamees, a premier 5-star superior floating hotel, built for travelers who want both elegance and a real rest mind. It feels modern but still warm, because Egyptian hospitality is right there with you. So yeah, this great vessel becomes your luxurious home away from home as you drift between the historic banks of Luxor and Aswan, like gently, with no rush at all.
Elegant Accommodation
Go ahead, step into the nicely arranged cabins and suites, made around your comfort. Every room has contemporary touches, soft bedding, individually controlled air conditioning, and today’s useful amenities, including an espresso machine, plus a flat-screen TV. Some cabins give you large panoramic windows, while others offer a private balcony, either way you can relax, watching the ever-changing views of green riverbanks, ancient ruins, and those calm little villages that line the Nile.
World-Class Onboard Amenities
When you’re not on shore, spend the days onboard, with the ship’s really exceptional facilities. Catch the sun on the wide sundeck, enjoy a refreshing dip in the outdoor swimming pool, or grab something chilled at the poolside lounge bar, then just let the day roll. For food, there’s the main dining room, where skilled chefs put together a tasty mix of gourmet international options and classic Egyptian flavors, served in an elegant buffet style. And in the evening, you can meet up in the lounge bar, for lively entertainment, from traditional oriental music and folkloric performances, to themed Galabeya party nights.
