The Locanda Luxury Hotel in Marassi, designed by GG&Grace International in
collaboration with Emaar, offers a refined arrival experience inspired by the
golden age of Egyptian music and cinema. The reception and lounge areas reinterpret
the charm of 1950s–60s Cairo through a contemporary lens—where mid-century
nostalgia meets modern luxury. A palette of muted plums, dusty rose, and warm
neutrals creates an inviting ambiance, while locally sourced furniture and curated
artwork root the design in authenticity. Archways, vintage radios, and subtle nods
to Egyptian icons like Umm Kulthum and classic film posters infuse storytelling
into the space. The design blends past and present with understated elegance,
evoking a sense of cinematic romance and cultural pride. Carefully selected textures
and heritage detailing offer guests a timeless, immersive welcome—
one that feels both familiar and extraordinary.
