HOSPITALITY-
Steigenberger to run an integrated tourist city in St. Catherine: German hotel company Steigenberger Hotels will manage and operate an integrated tourist city in South Sinai’s St. Catherine after inking an agreement with the New Urban Communities Authority yesterday, according to a cabinet statement.
In detail: Steigenberger will manage hotels and ecotourism resorts within Misr Sinai Tours’ new tourist city, which is part of a larger project — dubbed the Great Transfiguration — aimed at developing the UNESCO-registered area around St. Catherine’s Monastery and Mount Sinai into a site for religious, recreational, and environmental tourism.
More hospitality companies to join? The government is in talks with other international companies to operate other facilities at the site, according to a separate cabinet statement.
