With the success of the Nile Hilton, the Hilton Hotel Company (in partnership with the Egyptian Touristic Company) looked to expand the series of Hilton hotels in Egypt. Bringing forth their consultant architect, J A Ritchie (based in Italy), they sought the services of the office under the leadership of Mahmoud Riad, as they felt comfortable with us after serving as their local architectural consultant on the Nile Hilton. They commissioned the office to work on the design development on three new Hiltons: the Alexandria, Luxor and Aswan Hilton. The Alexandria Hilton was the simplest in form, where the elongated facade extends the viewership towards the Mediterranean sea.
