Welcome aboard the future of Nile tourism.
The largest and most luxurious floating hotel ever constructed south of Egypt’s High Dam. Currently under construction at the Arab Contractors Shipyard in Aswan and developed under the supervision of a renowned Dutch engineering firm, Moon Star is set to redefine Nile River tourism through an exceptional blend of elegance, comfort, innovation, and environmental responsibility. This six-deck floating palace spans 115 meters in length and 19 meters in width, housing 75 state-of-the-art suites, including Imperial, Presidential, Royal, Executive, and accessible accommodations, along with dedicated cabins for staff and crew. Guests will enjoy four restaurants, a Nile café, a shopping area, lounges across multiple decks, and a grand theater. The expansive sun deck features a 1,540 m² heated/chilled pool, two Jacuzzis, and a poolside bar. For wellness and fitness, the hotel includes a health club with sauna, massage rooms, an indoor heated pool, and a fully equipped gym. Business travelers can benefit from a conference hall for up to 200 guests and a private meeting room. Smart infrastructure includes four panoramic elevators, central A/C with individual controls, smart TVs, mini bars, safes, and a full onboard fire and safety system. Powered by advanced CAT engines and Schottel propulsion systems, the ship also includes cutting-edge navigation, a sewage and water treatment plant, and a private helipad for VIP or emergency access. Designed in accordance with international Green Ship standards under the supervision of Germanischer Lloyd and other global certification bodies, the Moon Star will be the first environmentally friendly floating hotel in Egypt and the Middle East — setting a new benchmark for sustainable luxury on the Nile.
