Shepheard's Hotel

Shepheard's Hotel was the leading hotel in Cairo and one of the most celebrated hotels in the world from the middle of the 19th century until it was burned down in 1952. A modern hotel called the Shepheard Hotel was built nearby in 1957.
==Shepheard's Hotel==

Originally operating under the name Hotel des Anglais (English Hotel) in the early 1840s,〔Elaine Denby - ''Grand Hotels: Reality & Illusion'' (New York: McGraw-Hill; London: Reaktion Books, 1998)〕 in 1860 the hotel was renamed Shepheard's Hotel, after its owner Samuel Shepheard (1816–66).〔Michael Bird - ''Samuel Shepheard of Cairo: A Portrait'' (London: Michael Joseph, 1957)〕 Shepheard, an English entrepreneur from Preston Capes, Northamptonshire, England, became co-manager of the hotel with a Mr. Hill (who was Mohammed Ali Pasha's head coachman) in 1841. In 1845 Hill relinquished his interest in the hotel, and Shepheard became the sole owner. Shepheard sold the hotel in 1861 and retired to Eathorpe Hall, Eathorpe, Warwickshire, England. Shepheard's Hotel was famed for its grandeur and opulence, though a frequent complaint was that its cuisine "leaves much to be desired".〔Sir John Gardner Wilkinson - ''A Handbook for Travellers in Egypt'' (London: John Murray, 1858)〕 It was extensively renovated in 1891, 1899, 1904, 1909 and 1927. Richard Burton, a close friend of Shepheard, left a detailed description of his generous character and successful career, describing him as "a remarkable man in many points, and in all things the model John Bull".〔Richard F. Burton, ''The Gold-Mines of Midian'' (C.Kegan Paul & Co, London, 1878), pp. 43-46〕
In the First World War, the hotel served as British Headquarters in the Near East. The hotel was totally destroyed in the "Cairo Fire" anti-British riots on 26 January 1952,〔Nina Nelson - ''Shepheard's Hotel'' (London: Barrie & Rockliff, 1960)〕〔Nina Nelson - ''Helnan Shepheard Hotel Cairo-Egypt'' (Cairo: Al Ahram, 1992)〕 in the course of the civil unrest that led to the July 23 Revolution.
