Sahara Pyramids Inn

Great view of the pyramid light and sound show.

The hotel has good view of pyramid

It’s hard to write this, because the staff were very helpful and welcoming and they are what makes this inn a success. We just feel catfished by the photos of the rooms. We booked a deluxe twin room and all the photos showed that it had both a window AND a view of the pyramids. We had no windows in the room at all. The floor space is so small that going to the toilet at night was dangerous. The en-suite was so small, you can’t get up from the toilet properly without bashing the sink. The shower was hot which was good but nowhere to put the towel and water just went everywhere. Someone was right when they said it’s a transit location. We’d booked 2 nights and I wish we hadn’t. The food is good enough to not need to go out. The breakfast isn’t great. But after all of this, the staff were incredible. I can’t fault them at all. It’s the facility itself. It’s our fault, you get what you pay for and we went cheap.

The staff is awesome. They are respectful, pleasant, hardworking and willing. The property is a death trap, a fire hazard. There are hardly any windows, small tight passageways/corridors, lots of stairs to rooftop restaurant, exposed electrical wiring, even in the shower. No fire extinguishers or sprinkler system in sight. Most rooms have no windows. Our room has a small, tight smelly bathroom, a broken bed, nonstop running water in toilet, no way to turn off a few lights...either sleep with all lights on or in total darkness in a room with no windows. Beware of tour guides, even some hotel staff. Big scams, total shake down for all your money once you decide to hire one of them. Hawkers of all ages, grown men, women and young boys would not leave your side if you walk around the neighbourhood...they are like flies. I would not recommend anyone to stay in this property. On the positive side, it's the proximity to the pyramids and the staff at this property is hardworking, respectful and extremely pleasant.

Staff was very helpful. No windows in room. 4th.floor no.elevator Area outside over run.by pain in the ass touts Camel and horse manure everywhere

It is the perfect location to see the Pyramids of Giza. The staff went above and beyond to accommodate us and help with any needed we had

Had an amazing time. Staff was polite and professional. Rooms were clean and comfortable. The view of Giza Pyramids with dinner and breakfast made it more memorable. I will be returning next year.

Room with clear view of the pyramids is awesome. They have a good restaurant in the roof so you dont need to go out. Staff was friendly and very helpful.

The Sahara Pyramids is only steps away to the main entrance gate to the Pyramids; It is excellent value for money when considering that. The rate for stay is super (surprisingly) affordable. Having said that, the lodge feels more like a transit location or a place for 1-2 nights max. The rooms need a retouch, and maintenance work should take place when the lodge is closed.

If you want to stay at a hotel in Giza across from the Pyramids with the best view in town this is it. We chose the hotel because of the reviews and we made an excellent choice. The rooms look just like the photos on the website and the terrace bar overlooks the pyramids with a nice selection of drinks and inexpensive well prepared meals. The hotel and bar staff are really friendly and helpful, we booked all our day tours at the front desk after arriving. Our guide Abdul and driver Farid were excellent and really took very good care of us, we cannot say enough good things about them and the entire hotel staff from the cleaners to the owner. We highly recommend the Sahara Pyramids Inn and we would stay here again. You can also arrange to be safely picked up and dropped off at the Cairo airport thru the hotel reception. Another bonus you get free front row seats to the pyramid light show from the hotel terrace bar! The view of the pyramids and the Sphinx from the terrace bar having breakfast or drinks in the evening is simply breathtaking. Thank you for a fantastic stay at the Sahara Pyramids Inn, to all the staff and Abdul and Farid. Regards Jennifer Drayton
