With its central location in Marassi by the beach, it will offer visitors an inspiring and culturally enriching lifestyle experience."
Al Alamein Hotel is positioned as a luxurious beach resort where inspiring minds create, connect and come alive. Typical of the brand - Vida meaning 'life' in Spanish - it will retain the essential characteristics of the historic resort.
