Dream lodge Hotel
Siwa Oasis This lovely little
hotel, built in a style that matches the architectural
curves in the old city, is situated down a quiet unpaved
road that winds through palm trees, and is one of my
favorite places in Siwa. A 3-minute walk from the
tourist-dense central square of Siwa, here you feel
alone in the oasis, with a palm grove all to yourself.
The walls are rough, sandy plaster, and the lighting is
subdued at night. Arched doorways, terra-cotta light
shades, and simple-but-elegant furniture hand-carved
with traditional motifs really make this place special.
The rooms are large and follow the traditional motif of
the rest of the hotel, with rounded shapes and handmade
furnishings; they also have fans. For eating, choose
between seating on the roof amidst the top of the palm
trees, with a view across the grove, or downstairs on
low cushions next to the fireplace. Staff are friendly
and well trained, and the food is excellent.
