The Golden 5 Complex in Hughada, Cataract Pyramids in Cairo (Giza) and the Nile Hilton in Cairo

This month we look at three large hotels, all five star, and all with a little something very special about them.  The Golden five is more of a complex which includes several hotels in Hurghada, and one of the largest facilities most people will ever stay in.  Also a large complex, and boasted by management as Egypt's first urban resort is the new Cataract Pyramids hotel.  Finally, there is the venerable Nile Hilton, still a favorite of many coming to Cairo.
