Spacious Nile cruise with Swiss hospitality

The Royal Lily is Movenpick’s flagship Nile cruise; it was launched in 2007 and offers comfortable spacious accommodation, Swiss hospitality, and extensive public areas that are perfect for relaxation and enjoying the tranquil beauty of Upper Egypt’s scenery.

The Royal Lily’s 56 cabins are approximately 22 square meters in area and are tastefully furnished in a modern style. Cabins are located on the upper decks and come with a shower room, individually controlled air-conditioning, and a choice of double or twin beds. They offer a television, minibar, internal telephone, in-house music channels, and panoramic windows that provide unhindered views of the spectacular and ever-changing scenery.

There are also four Royal Suites onboard of approximately 42 square meters, which comprise a bedroom with a lounge area and a bathroom complete with a Jacuzzi. Movenpick has a tradition of gastronomic excellence and serves three daily mouth-watering buffets with an extensive mix of different cuisines in the restaurant.

The Salon Deck with panoramic windows is decorated in natural hues and offers a relaxing lounge serving afternoon tea, a semi-circular bar, and a dance area. On the Sun Deck, there is an informal bar, a mix of shady canopied areas and lounges for sun worshippers, and a refreshing plunge pool and heated whirlpool.
