After Sudanese independence in 1956 the Greek-owned hotel weathered several regime changes and developed into a popular entry point and base for visiting journalists, humanitarians, diplomats, archaeologists and other researchers as well as overland travellers.The family-run business was in service without interruption until it was forced by the 2023 Sudan conflict to close its doors.
It is widely considered as one of the best hotels in Africa and enjoys a reputation as a legendary landmark of hospitality.
