Serviced homes  ·  Cairo, North Coast, El Gouna, Red Sea

The character of the place.
The certainty of a hotel.

Cairo, four in the afternoon. Sun through a mashrabiya screen.

Stay with Nook

Stay somewhere,
not anywhere.

A real home in a real neighbourhood, with the assurance of a hotel.

A chain hotel room in Cairo could be a room in any city on earth. That is the point of it, and the problem with it. An unmanaged rental gives you the neighbourhood, but no one to call, no standard, and a different bed every time.

Nook is the third option.

What we are not

A hotel that could be anywhere.

Standardised, sealed off, identical in every country. Reliable, and forgettable.

What we are also not

A rental where nobody answers.

Characterful, cheap, and a gamble. No standard, no service, no one accountable.

What we are

A home, run like a hotel.

A real home in a real neighbourhood, run to the standard a good hotel would hold. Someone answers. It is properly clean. Nothing is a surprise.

The Nook standard

Everything a hotel guarantees.
Nothing it flattens.

We run every home ourselves. The same standard holds in each one, whichever neighbourhood it is in.

  • Someone answers

    A real person at any hour, by phone or WhatsApp, from the day you book to the day you leave.

  • Properly clean

    A full clean between every stay, with fresh linen and towels waiting when you arrive.

  • Checked after every stay

    Each home is inspected on a schedule and after every guest, so small problems are fixed before you would notice them.

  • No surprises

    We photograph every home ourselves and describe it plainly. What you see is what you get.

  • Meals on request

    Breakfast and dinner can be arranged in the home. Ask when you book.

  • A calm building

    Every guest is ID-checked and there are no parties, ever. The building stays as quiet as you found it.

Included in every stay

  • All bills, and fast Wi-Fi
  • A proper desk to work at
  • Hotel-quality linen and toiletries
  • Check-in from 3 pm, check-out by noon

On request

  • Airport transfers
  • Extra cleaning during your stay
  • Laundry and dry cleaning
  • An extra bed or a cot
  • Late check-out, when available
  • Groceries stocked before you arrive
  • Monthly rates
  • Corporate and embassy stays, with one contact and one monthly invoice

Destinations

The light changes.
The standard doesn’t.

For property owners  ·  Nook Property Management

Your property, run like a hotel.

We manage the whole thing: styling, photography, listing, pricing, guests, housekeeping and maintenance. You keep the keys, the asset, and most of what it earns.

  • Consistent income

    Paid in USD by foreign guests, month after month.

  • A better-kept property

    Cleaned between every stay, checked and maintained on a schedule.

  • A more valuable asset

    An online profile of its own: reviews, ratings and history that compound year on year.

Everything. Including the parts you would rather not think about.

Preparation
We assess your property at no cost and tell you honestly if it is not right for this. Where work is needed we scope it, price it and manage it for you. The investment in the property stays yours, and nothing is spent without your approval.
Marketing
Professional photography, and listings across the major booking platforms and our own booking engine.
Pricing
Rates move with demand: weekends, holidays, high season, so no night is underpriced.
Guests
Vetted and ID checked. A security deposit is held on every booking.
Housekeeping
A full clean between every single stay, not once a year.
Maintenance
Inspected on a schedule and after every stay. Small problems are fixed before they become big ones, which is why the property ends up in better condition, not worse.
Hosting
Someone your guests can reach at any hour. Breakfast and dinner available on request.
Your side
A monthly statement: nights, rate, occupancy, payout. Block your own dates whenever you want them, a weekend or several weeks at a time. A simple agreement with clear exit terms.

Start with a visit.

It costs you nothing. We see the property, the building and the street, and tell you honestly if it is not right for this.

One property, or a whole building

We manage single properties, and run complete buildings as serviced residences for owners’ associations and developers.
