San Stefano (neighborhood)
San Stefano (Arabic: سان إستفانو) is a neighborhood in Alexandria, Egypt. The area was known for a landmark hotel-casino that was demolished in the late 1990s. That hotel was replaced by the San Stefano Grand Plaza, a hotel-apartment-shopping mall complex that includes a Four Seasons luxury hotel, opened in 2007[1] and apartments, housed in the tallest building in Alexandria (135 m (443 ft)).[2][3]
