About Project
GSOOR is currently undertaking a significant renovation project at the Grand Rotana resort in Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt. Commencing in 2022 and ongoing, this 20 million EGP project focuses on upgrading the resort’s aluminum elements. This includes various applications, likely encompassing window systems, facades, railings, and other architectural details. The renovation aims to refresh the resort’s aesthetic, enhance its functionality, and potentially improve energy efficiency.
Our Client’s Challenge
Renovating a high-profile resort like the Grand Rotana while it remains operational presents several challenges:
- Minimizing Guest Disruption: Construction activities must be carefully managed to avoid impacting the guest experience. Noise, dust, and restricted access need to be carefully controlled.
- Maintaining Resort Aesthetics: The renovation must seamlessly integrate with the existing design and overall ambiance of the Grand Rotana, preserving its luxurious and welcoming atmosphere.
- Logistical Complexities: Transporting materials and managing a construction site in a busy resort environment requires meticulous planning and coordination.
- Meeting Brand Standards: The renovation must adhere to the high standards of the Rotana brand, ensuring quality and consistency.
- Tight Timeline: Completing the renovation efficiently and within a reasonable timeframe is crucial to minimize disruption and allow the resort to quickly benefit from the upgrades.
- Budget Management: Staying within the allocated budget of 20 million EGP requires careful cost control and value engineering.
Our Approach And Solution

- Phased Approach: The renovation is likely being carried out in phases, focusing on specific areas of the resort at a time. This minimizes disruption to guests and allows the resort to continue operating smoothly.

- On-site Coordination: A dedicated project management team is probably on-site to oversee all aspects of the renovation, ensuring efficient execution and adherence to the schedule.
- Dust and Noise Control: Strict measures are likely in place to control dust and noise levels during construction, minimizing any impact on guests.
- Value Engineering: GSOOR is likely employing value engineering principles to optimize costs without compromising quality. This could involve exploring alternative materials or construction methods.
- Quality Control: Rigorous quality control measures are likely in place to ensure that all work meets the high standards of the Rotana brand.
