Time-restricted business executives in the Sudanese capital can enjoy a sumptuous buffet lunch at Corinthia Hotel Khartoum and be ready for an afternoon of business within the hour.

The hotel's 59-minute promise is a feast of the senses in the Mugran Restaurant on the 16th floor (pictured above left), as it includes a vast array of international and Sudanese dishes, using the finest seasonal ingredients. The buffet includes antipasti, salads, cold cuts, main courses with meats, fish and vegetarian options and plentiful desserts including the mouth-watering Umm Ali and fresh fruits.

“The buffet is proving very popular, particularly among the business community in Khartoum,” says General Manager Nicky Borg. “If they want to they can easily be in and out of the restaurant within 30 minutes, particularly if they're in a real rush and combining the lunch with their meetings in our hotel.”

Business guests can dine in the Mugran or entertain in the restaurant's adjoining Omdurman and Salam private dining rooms which offer the ultimate in intimate and exclusive dining. The hotel has five other restaurants, including Rickshaw far eastern restaurant, the tallest in the city on the 18th floor.

Moreover, Corinthia Hotel Khartoum has extensive conference and banqueting facilities, including the largest ballroom in Khartoum, two large pre-function areas, three break-out rooms and three meeting rooms. It is also located across the road from the city's main convention centre.

Aside from the fast feast, guests can also enjoy the panoramic view from the restaurant as the hotel sits on the confluence of the Blue and White Niles and overlooks Sunnut Forest and the rural and idyllic Tutti Island.

Parking is free at the hotel which includes sheltered parking from the scorching sun. In true five-star tradition, the hotel also offers valet parking.
