Jolie Ville Hotel & Spa Kings Island can take a conference of up to 945 people in theatre layout in its largest hall, a gala dinner for 560 at round tables, or a wedding in its gardens on the Nile, and it can house the whole group on site. The resort sits on Kings Island, an island in the Nile just south of central Luxor, in Upper Egypt.
Seminars and company events
The meetings offer is built around three halls in a conference area that the hotel presents as the largest event venue in Luxor. The Nile Hall, at 812 square meters, is the room for congresses, product launches and award nights. The Raa Hall suits a mid-size plenary of up to 180 people, and the Jolie Hall works for a board meeting, a workshop or a training session. Technical and audiovisual equipment can be rented through the hotel, and a corporate team prepares group quotes. The hotel has hosted film festival events and an international pageant, which gives an idea of the scale it is used to.
Weddings and receptions
The resort sells weddings and names four settings for them: the Villa Gardens, the Infinity Pool Garden, the Nile Ball Room and Queen's Island. The outdoor options use the gardens and pool areas facing the river, while the ballroom gives a covered alternative for large receptions. Capacities for each wedding setting are not published, so ask the team for figures based on your guest count and season.
