Cairo House trusts Autograph Collection to repurpose landmark Tahrir Complex into luxury hotel

Bringing an Autograph Collection Hotel, a distinguished portfolio of independent upper-upscale luxury hotels under the Marriott International umbrella, to the heart of downtown Cairo aligns with the Sovereign Fund of Egypt’s (TSFE) broader vision for revitalizing the area and boosting tourism.

Autograph Collection features over 300 unique hotels worldwide, each reflecting the individual vision of its founder and offering immersive, memorable experiences.

Tahrir Complex, a mammoth edifice that has housed government administrations in the heart of Downtown Cairo since its construction in 1951, is known to millions of Egyptians who sought it to issue and notarize public documentation for decades as Mogamma Al Tahrir.

The transformation of the Tahrir Complex follows a decree issued by President Abdel-Fattah El-Sisi in September 2020, which removed its public benefit status and transferred ownership to TSFE for redevelopment.

In August 2022, the US CairoHouse LLC development consortium landed the deal to develop and rehabilitate the iconic building with over $200 million in investments.

 The Cairo House LLC, led by four sponsors: Global Ventures Group, Oxford Capital Group, Al Otaiba Investments, and Zoser Capital Partners, owns Cairo House Egypt for Real Estate and Tourism Investment S.A.E.
