This month, we transport ourselves to the desert sandsof Egypt—to a place where ancient wonders and five-star hospitality converge in a single unforgettable setting. Our destination is Marriott Mena House Cairo, a legendary hotel with perhaps the most iconic view in the world: the majestic Pyramids of Giza. This is a bucket list hotel for me in one of the most remarkable places on earth. The inspiration for today’s podcast comes from a friend who recently travelled to Egypt. I can’t wait to share this episode with you. Here we go!I'm your podcast host, Peter DeMoor. I have a fascination for the hotel industry and over the last quarter-of-a-century I have studied it, been a hotel manager and passed the torch to next generation. Now, as part of an emerging hotel industry tech-startup, I am independent from any specific hotel or chain, and able to talk about the industry with a balanced perspective and with a certain level of expertise.
