This year, Four Seasons Hotel Cairo at the First Residence became Egypt’s first hotel to install an electric car-charging station. The station works with plug-in electric vehicles and hybrids. Full charges require an eight-hour stay, but a two-hour charging session provides enough power for a 310-mile drive.

“We pride ourselves as the first hotel in Egypt to install an electric car-charging station,” says Mahmoud ElKeiy, general manager, Four Seasons Hotel Cairo at the First Residence. “It is essential we protect the environment, which not only will save gas emissions and energy but it will also empower our guests to live sustainably, and become a valuable convenience for them to use during their stay with us.”

Additionally, Four Seasons Hotel Alexandria recently received an impressive accolade for its spa services. The World Spa Awards named The Spa at Four Seasons Hotel Alexandria the best hotel spa in Egypt.

The spa, with its 14 treatment rooms, two couples’ suites, male and female whirlpools, sauna, steam room and relaxation lounges, offers a variety of treatments. The signature is the Cleopatra Treatment, which includes an Egyptian milk and honey bath and an 80-minute oil massage.

Review: Sushi by Scratch at Grand Hyatt Deer Valley

Husband-and-wife team Phillip Frankland Lee and Margarita Kallas-Lee made their mark by reinventing the term “hidden gem” through their surprising and intentional collection of destination restaurants. While they launched the original Scratch Kitchen in 2013, an expired lease prompted them to relocate to an unassuming strip mall in suburban Encino in 2015 and rename it Scratch Bar & Kitchen. Even at a time when the San Fernando Valley was not known for innovative 5-star dining, the Lees’ concepts gathered such a strong buzz that discerning diners cheerfully followed them “over the hill.”
