Guest Reviews

Paguretta81 (10/5): - Tutto! Mr. Gohar é molto ospitale e a disposizione per qualsiasi richiesta. Il b&b é situato in una zona tranquilla; dal terrazzo vista superlativa sulle piramidi, a 5 minuti dall'ingresso della Sfinge. Colazione egiziana super abbondante con salato e dolce. Acqua, the e caffè sempre a disposizione. Suggerimento: un po' difficile da trovare, ma se vi fate lasciare al ristorante El Dar Darak é a 2 minuti a piedi. Niente
Francesca (10/5): - The property is well located very close to the pyramids. The rooms are spacious and clean. The owner, Halim, is very kind and helpful. Would definitely recommend.
Eliane (7/5): Le prix ne compense pas les aboiements des chiens la nuit et la mauvaise qualité du petit déjeuner. - L'emplacement est parfait pour se rendre aux pyramides, environ 10' à pied. Restaurants situés sur la grande avenue également proches. De la terrasse, nous voyons bien les pyramides de Kephren et Mykerinos, Celle de Kheops est cachée un bâtiment. La chambre est grande et propre ainsi que la salle de bains. Le propriétaire n'est pas très locace pour les renseignements. EX: "Quel est le chemin pour les pyramides ? Tout droit". Bien mais dès que l'on sort, la question se pose, part-on à droite ou à gauche ? Sinon, très gentil. Le petit déjeuner est copieux mais les ingrédients ne sont vraiment pas bons et tous froids. La nuit, la rue est calme, sans voiture, mais avec énormément de chiens qui aboient régulièrement.
laurence (6/5): Magique - le petit déjeuner la vue depuis la terrasse le confort des lits la gentillesse d'Halim la salle bain Il manque des ustensiles dans la cuisine la rue dans laquelle se trouve l'entrée
Simona (8/5): - Colazione tipica e molto buona servita nella bella terrazza con vista piramidi. Stanza ok e abbastanza pulita. Forse un po difficile trovare la struttura e non troppo silenziosa... Nel complesso buon rapporto qualità -prezzo Rumore
AllezViensOnEstBien (10/5): - L'hôte était extrêmement sympathique et serviable. Quand il est venu nous chercher à l'aéroport, il a fait un détour par McDonald's pour que nous ayons de quoi dîner car c'était dans les premiers jours du Ramadan et tout était fermé. Il nous a aussi préparé des box de petit déjeuner très garnis tôt le matin pour notre départ à 6h30 Petit déjeuner très bon à l'hôtel aussi Le rooftop était très agréable Excellent rapport qualité prix On entendait pas mal le bruit dans la rue, ce qui s'explique en partie avec la période du Ramadan, mais cela semble être le cas dans tout le quartier, donc pas de la faute de notre hôte
Sergio (10/5): -
Clifford (10/5): Great guest house - Superb view from the terrace. Halim was a brilliant host who was determined to make our stay special. Thank you.
Shiho (10/5): また来たい！ - 全体的にとても綺麗。シャワーブースはシャワーカーテンのみで、トイレに水はかかるものの、慣れてしまえばそこまで気にならない。お湯がしっかり熱く、最高だった。朝食も大満足。オーナーはとても良い方で、深夜1時の到着でも待機していてくれた。朝は8:00にドアを叩いてモニコしてくれる。猫もとても可愛い。 Googleの地図通りには行こうとすると、何箇所か道がなく辿り着けなかった。大通りからSayed Gabir通りに入って道なりが正解。タクシーで向かう場合も、運転手が何回も道に迷ってしまったので、事前に道を伝えておいた方が良い。あとは階段のみなので、スーツケースなど重い荷物がある場合は要注意。
Yıldırım (6/5): - Çok samimi ve sevecen karşıladılar bizi. Giriş çıkış saatleri konusunda da esneklerdi, yardımcı oldular. Kahvaltı iyi değildi ama zaten fiyat performans yeriydi. Tek gecelik kafamızı sokacak bir yer olsun diyorsanız işinizi görür
Katarzyna (10/5): Wyjątkowy czas - Przemili gospodarze. Pyszne śniadanko
NIKOLAOS (10/5): - Γλυκός και συμπαθής ο ιδιοκτήτης. Κοντά στις πυραμίδες με θέα σε αυτές από την ταράτσα. Η περιοχή μάλλον το αδικεί. Η περιοχή χρειάζεται αναβάθμιση. Δεν φταίει το καταλύμα.
PIYING (9/5): -
Fiona (10/5): Gohar Guest House - The location overlooking the pyramids is fantastic and a short 10 minute walk to the entrance. The breakfast was excellent and a lovely taste of Egypt. Our host was very helpful and we could leave our luggage there on our final day to collect in the evening. The room and bathroom were clean and good and the kettle was well supplied with a variety of teas. The street dogs were noisy one night.
Mehul (10/5): -
HUSAM (10/5): منزل جوهر للضيافة للسعادة والراحة عنوان - الاستاذ جوهر شخص مثقف ومتعلم يرحب بضيوفه ويتعامل معهم تعامل راقي؛ النظافه احسن مايكون والمميزات والمواصفات مطابقة تماما لما هو في الحجز؛ المنطقة هادئة جدا وشوارعها نظيفة؛ لايوجد متسولين ولا باعة متجولين في المنطقة؛ كل شيء نظيف بمافيها الطعام والأدوات؛ مضيفة السكن الأستاذه خديجة راقية في التعامل ومتعاونة جدا؛ الإطلالة في السطح تستطيع من خلالها مشاهدة واسعة للمنطقة بمافيها الأهرامات؛ اذا أردت مكان للإقامة يلبي طموحاتك وتشعر فيه بالراحة كأنك في بيتك لاتتردد في إختيار هاذا المكان
PENGSHENG (10/5): -
Adolfo (10/5): - Las vistas y lo amable que es Gohar :) Se escucha mucho el ruido de la calle
elena (10/5): - I proprietari gentili, e disponibili per ogni esigenza. Offrono servizio da e per aeroporto ad una cifra equa e se serve anche per altre destinazioni. La struttura è semplice ma vicinissima entrata piramidi.
Lovéa (10/5): Je recommande à 10000%! - La vue sur la terrasse juste magnifique. Gentillesse de Halim et sa patience. Le petit déjeuné très copieux. Le frigo mis à disposition avec bouteille d’eau mise par Halim tous les jours. Les conseils sur les lieux à visiter. La propreté de l’établissement et la sécurité. La difficulté à le trouve sur le gps.
Natsuko (10/5): また泊まりたい！ - スタッフの方がすごく優しかったです。チェックインは11時にできました。ホテルチェックアウト後もスーツケースも置けました。その後チェックアウト後に30分ほどタクシーを待つためにロビーで待つこともできました。 Wifiが弱いです。でもエジプトであれば致し方ないと思いました。
Subin (5/5): The property needs deep cleaning. - Halim is a wonderful person. Overall cleanliness. Kitchen was disgusting. Bathroom was also not cleaned properly.
Magda P (9/5): - We stayed for 3 nights to see the pyramids and Cairo. Great place near pyramids with a great view, simple nice breakfast, clean, bottled water provided, AC and option of direct booking of transport with the owner from airport to the guesthouse. The owner was friendly and helped us with communication with our taxi driver to Hurghada Giza area near the pyramids and guesthouse is very basic. The view, best apartment and breakfast area requires climbing to the 4th floor. Take earplugs, Giza is noisy
Tomy Mathew (10/5): -
ivan (10/5): 100% recomendable - Viajamos con mi familia (2 adultos y 2 menores) y este alojamiento fue increíble, piezas amplias pudimos cocinarnos y la relación calidad/precio de primer nivel! El desayuno excelente con vista de las pirámides y la posibilidad de usar la terraza! Hicieron muy reconfortante nuestra estadía, muy buenos colchones y buena ducha el plus que Pudimos ir caminando hasta las pirámides.
kaan (10/5): gayet memnun kaldık tavsiye ederiz - Halim çok canayakın piramitlere çok yakın ve mağazası çok güzel
kaan (10/5): konaklamamız çok güzeldi manzarası çok güzel çalışanlar çok güler yüzlü - manzarası çok güzel
Ingrid (10/5): - Bon emplacement, endroit calme et proche de toutes commodités. Les chambres sont bien, spacieuses et propres. Le propriétaire Halim et Khadika sont adorables. Le déjeuné est très bon et la terrasse a une vue imprenable sur les pyramides de Gizah Je recommande les yeux fermés
CHIH FENG (10/5): - The hotel is clean and well-equipped, and offers free iced mineral water. The view from the top floor is quite good, and you can comfortably watch the pyramids at night, as well as enjoy the sunrise and the gorgeous light show. It is very comfortable to have breakfast during the day, and the owner is very friendly. It is a highly recommended hotel!
Saki (10/5): - ピラミッドが綺麗に見えるバルコニー付きで水周りも綺麗でした✨️ 水も冷蔵庫にあるものを飲むことができ、大変助かりました！！なによりオーナーさんと奥さんが温かく出迎えてくれてとても過ごしやすかったです！このホテル自体に悪いところはありません！強いていうなら、ピラミッドのすぐ近くにあるので、周辺に馬車の客引きをする人達の拠点があり、道路に馬のフンが沢山落ちてたりするところが唯一嫌なポイントでした。ですが、ホテルのホスピタリーと値段等を考えると問題ありません！
Pingping (10/5): - 吉萨地区很破败，需要寻找一个安全和干净的住所，同时host必须要诚实可靠，Gohar先生和他的家庭旅馆就满足这样的需求。并且价格公道，包含简单丰盛的早餐。
Nagy (10/5): - Everything is very good and cheap. :) The boss is very kind and helpful
Alicja (9/5): The best budget stay in Giza! - The rooms were extremely clean and cosy! The breakfast was freshly cooked each morning! What we loved the most was the water fridge into which mr Gohar would put fresh water for his guests, freshly cold and ready to go! The guest house is perfectly situated near the pyramids as well. The owner, mr Gohar is also very nice and feels like an uncle to you 😊 He was able to put us in a room with a view at the pyramids upon request. Nothing to do with the guest house itself however the location it's in tends to get dodgy at night - there tend to be a few people who just latch onto you and try to get money from you. You get it anywhere in Egypt but just keep that in mind. The local restaurants also tend to be hard with tourists (charge you more or have you pay for things you haven't ordered). Theres no businesses which do food delivery either (if you feel too tired or scared to go out).
Cristina (10/5): Exceptional - We highly recommend Gohar Guest House where we felt very much welcomed and looked after like family members. Rooms are spotless, beds are comfortable, breakfast is homemade and delicious. We enjoyed the simplicity of the place and most of all the heartfelt owner, Halim, whom we thank again for his hospitality. Last but not least the location, so close to the pyramids yet located in a secondary road so no noise at all at night! And that amazing view from the terrace where we took our daily breakfast. .
S (10/5): This is a very good place for solo traveler with limited budget. Specially the behaviour of the owener is very good. His -
Amelie (9/5): Superb - This is a wonderful destination to stay in Cairo. The owner welcomes us at the airport. At his place he leads us to the top floor of his building, where we have two rooms, a dining room and a small kitchen and a big terrace with view of the Pyramids of Giza. This is also the place where breakfast is served every morning The owner is a very friendly and helpful man, well versed in English. He drives us to every place we wanted to see and also goes shopping with us. His house is within walking distance to the Pyramids. This quarter of Giza is very quiet and shops and other facilities are within walking distance. We recommend it in any case for travellers who do not want to stay in a luxury hotel and want to have private contacts.
Vilas (10/5): Exceptional Stay at Gohar Guest House: Comfortable, Warm Hospitality and Stunning Pyramid Views! 🤩 - I had an amazing stay at Gohar Guest House, Giza! From the moment I arrived, the Mr. Halim Gohar (Owner) was very welcoming and attentive, making the check-in process smooth and easy. The room was spacious, clean, and beautifully decorated with all the amenities I needed, including comfortable beds, AC and a well-equipped bathroom. I was also impressed with the hotel’s facilities which have free access to Wi-Fi , Tea Maker, Washing Machine, Iron and a Fridge filled with drinking water bottles for free. The location is perfect. From Roof top you can have breakfast and tea/coffee watching the Pyramids. Pyramid Visitor centre is just 600-700 metres walking distance from the hotel. The breakfast buffet offered a variety of local Egyptian delicious options. Mr. Halim Gohar personally takes care of everything. During your stay, you will encounter with Mr. Halim's nauthy daughter........the CAT 🐈 😅😅 Overall, it was a fantastic experience, and I’ll definitely be staying here again on my next visit. Highly recommended to all!
Mae (10/5): Exceptional - Exceptional Stay at Gohar Guest House! I had an amazing experience at Gohar Guest House! The place is incredibly affordable yet totally worth it. The best part? The rooftop breakfast with a stunning view of the Pyramids—it’s truly unforgettable! The location is perfect, just a short walk to the Pyramids of Giza and close to everything you need. The guest house is also very clean and comfortable, making it a great place to relax after a day of exploring. But what really makes this place special is the owner's exceptional hospitality. He goes the extra mile to help with anything you need, providing valuable local tips, guidance, and assistance throughout your stay. His kindness and dedication make you feel completely at home. If you’re looking for a budget-friendly, well-located, and welcoming stay in Giza, Gohar Guest House is the perfect choice! Highly recommended!
Valentin (10/5): An adventure - The owner is an amazing person, quick to please and help you with anything if possible. As other reviews said, he can even join you to be your driver and kind of guide to places(he took us on a while day trip to Giza and Saqara, we intended Memphis too but we were too tired in the end). The breakfast is amazing Just to be clear, It's not something Gohar can do anything about it and we can not hold it against him. The surrounding locations are scary at night but this can be said about all of Giza, it is what it is. On the bright side, Halim took us to shops before going home and we got all the drinks we needed and enjoyed the evenings and nights on the roof top.
Maria (10/5): Great Accommodation near Giza Pyramids - I spent New Year's Eve at Gohar Guesthouse with a nice view over the fireworks at the Pyramids. The guesthouse has a great terrace with direct view over the Pyramids. It is really great to sit there and just stare at them. You can enjoy breakfast every morning with the fantastic view over the Pyramids, Just amazing. Since the guesthouse is located in Giza, it is also very calm, and you can get a good night's rest. The rooms are spacious and clean. The beds are comfortable. For me, the right degree of hardness. Some of the rooms even have a view over the Pyramids. There is coffee and tea (black, mint, green, hibiscus) on every floor for you to enjoy. In the „kitchen area“, there is also a refrigerator. Halim, the owner, is really helpful and ensures that you feel at home. In a nutshell, it is a real great Egyptian guesthouse, run by a local host, with great value for money. Additional information: To Cairo (Egyptian Museum), it is 150 LE (50 LE = 1 Euro as of Dec 2024) with Uber. Which is really easy. You can spend the day in Cairo and profit from the calm nights at Giza. The Grand Egyptian Museum is just a few kilometers away, and an Uber costs ~50 LE: To the Pyramids, you can walk from the Guesthouse. There are also nice restaurants nearby.
Sudhanshu (9/5): Good for short stay near pyramids - - Good location. 4 minutes walk to the pyramids ticket office - Clean room and toilet - Free water bottles - Mr. Gohar is friendly and polite - Nice view from the room - we stayed on 2nd floor and there was no internet. Wifi only worked on the roof
Avik (10/5): Exceptional - Location is very good.. near pyramid.. host Gohar Halim is very good person..
Siti (8/5): Recommended. I will come again with my family. - Breakfast was great, staff were so friendly.
Kevin (8/5): Exactly as described and expected - The view is worth the rental on its own. Sitting on the balcony, sipping a drink, hearing the call to prayer and watching the sunset over the Great Pyramid is a one off The first sign that you are in the guest house is when you get through the door, a signpost on the path outside would be a good idea. If you're staying, as we did, in the the top-floor apartment, you find your kitchen being used to cook breakfast.
Hicham (10/5): Amazing Value for the price, Great Host! - Halim was an Amazing host, very accomodating. Rooms were clean and neat, with private bathroom, separate AC, Dinning Table, Wardrobe. Everything exactly as advertised. The staff, namely Chadia is a fantastic help. Halim picked us up at the airport and was available to give tours (Highly Recommend to avoid scammers and overcharge). This is out of the establishment control but there are stray dogs on the street that will keep you awake if you're not a heavy sleeper. However, Halim can accomodate by providing rooms on the other side of the house so your sleep won't be interrupted.
Les (9/5): Very good - Staff super sympa. On est ravi
Sebastian (8/5): Top host. The location may be your only push-back - The host is so nice and friendly. The breakfast was delicious and buffet-like. There was unlimited water provided to us. Amenities were just fine. The view from the rooftop is amazing. The only push back would be the location. It is located in a part of Guiza that is too chaotic and although I would not say it is not safe, you may not feel entirely confortable. There are other places in Giza, even closer to the Pyramids with better atmosphere. Getting there is even difficult. Our uber driver got lost even with Waze.
Balázs (10/5): Exceptional - The apartment was clean and tidy, the breakfast was good with some local and oriental food by two really kind and always smiling girls. Halim was great host, he helped and guided us like a caring father. We went with him Dahsur-Sakkara full day trip and Great Pyramid full day trip for a resonable price. We are really appeiciated. Thank you very much for everything Halim! The Der family. An advice: If anybody wants a hassle free holiday "use" Halim.
Bersaida (10/5): Amazing View and Great Host - We booked the one-bedroom apartment located on the terrace with a view of the pyramids. There is a walk-up, but it's worth it for the view, especially during the light show. The rooms are air-conditioned and come with a kitchenette, dining table, and a private bathroom. It is situated on a rustic street surrounded by local charm. Halim assured us that the neighborhood was safe, and I felt secure the whole time. The people were also very friendly. Halim was very attentive and helped us with our plans. Depending on our daily tour schedule, he accommodated our breakfast at any time we asked. There are many restaurants in the area. We went a couple of times to the restaurant Dar Darak. The food was delicious and it has fixed-price menus at good prices. WiFi in the terrace was not that strong at times.
C.berrocal (10/5): If you want a friend in Cairo, this is your place! - We stay until 3 times at Gohar place during our travel to Cairo, unforgettable! -
C.berrocal (9/5): Pyramids dream - Very good situated with a lovely view of the pyramid. Gohar, the owner, he was super kind and helpful all our stayed; he even drove us to know Saqara desert for a fair price. Breakfast was pretty nice and room very comfortable. We rent two extra nights with him! Thanks so much! Some of the rooms give to a noise street, where the mosques are a bit loud early in the morning, always good excuse to wake up to and see the sunrise ✨
Juliano (10/5): The best view in Gaza - Good hotel, highly recommended. The owner, Gohar, is the one who greets you, he is very friendly and a good host. And he welcomes you with fresh bottled water. The rooms are air-conditioned and have private bathrooms. The best of Giza to wake up and have breakfast watching the pyramids in a beautiful view from the terrace. Thank you very much Gohar. Difficult access for uber and cab applications
Juliano (10/5): Good hotel, highly recommended. The owner, Gohar, is the one who greets you, he is very friendly and a good host. And h - Terraza Difficult location for maps and taxi apps. have to ask for it from the main street.
Andrei (10/5): Cosy, vibe place close to Piramyds entrance with 2 excellent viewpoints s on the House rooftop. - There are two comfortable terraces on the rooftop where you can Enjoy your staying and see the pyramids ligh show. Guest House owner Halim Gohar can treat you with delicious handmade apricot jam, if you would be lucky) -
Fhereza (10/5): Exceptional - My friends and I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Gohar Guest House and I must say, it was an absolute delight. From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond to ensure our stay was comfortable and enjoyable. However, what really stood out to me was the owner's genuine hospitality. He welcomed us with open arms and made us feel like family from the very beginning. His warmth and kindness made our stay even more special. The Guest House itself is a beautiful oasis, nestled in a serene location with breathtaking views of the Pyramids. The rooms were spacious and immaculate, with all the amenities we needed for a comfortable stay. One of the things that really made our stay memorable was the owner's recommendations for things to do and see in the area. He was so knowledgeable about the local attractions and gave us great tips for places to eat and explore. It was clear that he genuinely cared about our experience and wanted to ensure we had the best possible time. What really surprised us was how affordable our stay was. The price was so cheap, yet the quality of the guest house and service exceeded our expectations. Overall, I would highly recommend the Gohar Guest House to anyone looking for a peaceful, relaxing getaway. The owner's hospitality, stunning location, and affordable pricing truly made this a memorable stay for us. We can't wait to come back and visit again soon!
Eric (10/5): Excellent stay. Would recommend to anyone traveling to Cairo. - Trying to find reviews that were 100% honest proved challenging, but we can not say enough good things about the property as well as the owner. We arrived at night and the owner promptly greeted us and showed us to our room. The property has such a nice vibe with tables and chairs and two loungers on the patio to watch the sun rise or set with the pyramids as the back drop. We are a family of five and had more than enough space. We had the two rooms upstairs which included a bathroom and TV in the main area. We felt so welcomed our whole stay. Each morning we were woken up by the owner to a nice little breakfast on the patio. The property is only a short walk to the pyramids and a short walk to the main road. Upon leaving the owner packed us a small breakfast which was so thoughtful and kind. With an exceptional host, great location, and amazing value this place is definitely a great one to book. The property was great but the bathroom due to space was small.
Chi (10/5): Exceptional - Not very big but warm and clean room. Delicious breakfast. Very close to Pyramids. The host Mr. Gohar and his family were kind and gave a lot of travel advice. I will surely recommend this accommodation to my friends. Nothing
De (10/5): Lovely time at Gohar! Recommended - It really feels like home. Every morning the host makes sure you are awake, well fed and you have everything you need. The terrace has a fantastic view over the Pyramids, a nice gateway from the busy streets of Cairo. The area is very local, it seems sketchy at first, but actually is very quiet and safe. The host helped us with everything, without being pushy (which is nice for once).We really enjoyed our stay!!
Falah (10/5): Exceptional - Nice honest host, whom you can fully trust.
Guus (10/5): Wake up. Eat some delicious breakfast while watching the real pyramids! - Gohar is an amazing host who will help you as much as he can! It was really nice to meet him and he will make your stay unforgettable
Giuseppe (10/5): Exceptional - The Gohar hotel is located near the Giza plateau offering a view of the pyramids, it has a beautiful balcony and the rooms are comfortable and have adequate hygiene facilities; the owner was always kind and helpful, the structure is highly recommended No negative elements to report
Yu (10/5): Perfect - The host was an old gentleman. He was very nice and passionate. The breakfast was delicious, and we enjoyed the view of pyramids with the breakfast. The room was nice and there were enough blankets. Free drinking water was also provided. Everything was perfect.
Tahli (10/5): Great place for a Giza visit - Incredible location, 5 minutes walk from the entrance of the Giza Pyramids complex. Breakfast on the rooftop was delicious and the beds are really comfy. Halim, the host, is so incredibly kind and can help you with anything you need or want to do. This place feels like home.
Mark (8/5): perfect place to explore the pyramids - Great view to the pyramids from the roof. The guesthouse shows love to details, colorful artistic vibes. Located in a calm area of Giza. An honest and friendly owner that helps with any issue. breakfast lacks of fresh fruits hard to find at first, but gmaps location is correct.
Léna (9/5): Very affordable, clean and nice staff - Kind staff, very clean and great value for the price. Location was a bit tricky to find cause on Google maps we can see 3 possible roads to go to the property. But only one of them is accurate
Siouxie (10/5): Home from home. - I can honestly say this is the best guest house I have ever stayed at. Everything was perfect, It was home from home only with better views. Halim and his family welcoming and helpful, they couldn't do enough for us. We were made to feel so welcome from the moment we arrived. The room was spotless, The beds were so comfortable and the air con worked a treat. Breakfast was far better than we expected. The breakfast at the hotel we had just stayed at was terrible. Breakfast here was full of so many different Egyptian things to try. Tea and coffee was included in the room price, there was a kettle and tea and coffee on a table in the hall outside our room. The fridge was stocked with cold water also. If I ever return I will stay here again, I wouldn't consider anywhere else. 5 min walk from the pyramids, shops very close and easy enough to get into Cairo. The views from the breakfast area and from the terrace at the top of the spiral staircase were amazing. Thank you again for making our stay so amazing. Not that I didn't like it but you have to climb a few stairs to the rooms, worth every step when you get there. I honestly don't have a bad word to say about this place.
Ahmed (10/5): Exceptional -
Celeste (8/5): Lovely contained units walking distance from the Pyramids - Some of the rooms were new and well stocked . There was a fridge in every unit. Coffee and tea was free. The view from the rooftop was stunning. The Egyptian breakfast was amazing The host Halim was very kind and helpful. It would've been nice to meet Halim's family.
Arafat (10/5): Exceptional - the location was very good, just 5 mins walking distance from the pyramid. there is a nice rooftop where is possible to enjoy sunset behind the pyramids. and the best part is the owner. he was so kind and generous. I felt like I was at home. extremely recommended.
Lawrence (10/5): We highly recommend this establishment, particularly if you like some local flavor. - Breakfasts were great! The owner was most solicitous, and his son was a professional tour guide who helped us in all aspects of becoming used to Egypt. He also arranged a great tour of the pyramids, with added care and bonuses. Nothing.
Adam (10/5): Exceptional -
Adam (10/5): The staff were very helpful and welcoming. Made me feel right at home, I had breakfast every morning, which I believe is - it was super close to the pyramids but also close to shops restaurants food etc. But most importantly the staff here was fantastic and made me feel very at home here and well liked after. it can be a bit tricky to find, but that was the only downside, which is quite minor, all things considered.
Greg (10/5): very pleasant made to feel like part of the family - very friendly staff clean rooms beautifully view of the Pyramids. nothing
Greg (10/5): excellent & friendly hoists couldn’t do enough for you . - The view how awesome Little bit tricky to find fir the drivers .
