The Four Seasons Nile Plaza is widely considered the finest and most secure hotel in Cairo, offering presidential-level security and accommodations to visiting heads of state and top government officials.

Following an announcement in 2017 for the expansion of the Four Seasons Sharm El Sheikh, upon completion, the hotel will be the largest Four Seasons Resort in the world.[6]

In 2016, TMG announced plans to build a Four Seasons hotel in its New Cairo property Madinaty, part of an 8,000 acres (3,200 ha) development and expansion in New Cairo. Plans to build a Four Seasons hotel in Luxor were made in 2008 but put on hold in the wake of the Egyptian Revolution. In 2020, TMG announced plans to continue the project in Luxor, providing financing of E£1.5 billion to complete a 200-room Four Seasons in the historic city.[7]
