Guest Reviews
- Almasoudi (10/5): - كل شئ كان رائع
الخدمة والنظافه والاطلاله لاشئ
- Amr (9/5): -
- Ahmed (7/5): -
- Al Abbadi (9/5): -
- Andrea (5/5): -
- Ali (1/5): - تعامل سئ المسبح عطلان الإفطار سئ
- Ahmad (8/5): Great stay thanks everyone - Amazing breakfast, staff was very nice A little bit old, needs a renovation
- Aslihan Dilara (10/5): Would recommend it anyone!:) - We traveled from a non-Arab country together with my boyfriend, stayed two nights. I believe Novotel El Borg Cairo Hotel has the best location among all of the hotels (including the five stars) in Cairo. We stayed in a corner room, on the river side. It has sunrise right into the room. Amazing and panoramic view. If we ever come to Cairo again, we will definitely stay here, without a doubt. The room was spacious, had a big couch too. The bathroom had both a shower and a tub. The staff was helpful and friendly. Breakfast was great, we loved it. The hotel has Starbucks coffee and Mövenpick in its lobby. The ubers can drive up to entrance of the building, which is good when you have big luggage. The room was clean, the bed was big and comfy, the AC did its job properly during the very hot (outside was 43degrees celcius at some point) three days. Do it was 10 out of 10 stay for us. Thank you to lovely staff for being accomodative on my birthday getaway in Cairo! Nothing I can think of.

- Moroccan traveler (9/5): - Location
- marcin (10/5): - Bardzo udany pobyt! Hotel spełnił nasze oczekiwania pod każdym względem. Śniadania były bardzo smaczne i różnorodne, a obsługa niezwykle miła i pomocna przez cały pobyt. Dużym plusem było również to, że przy zameldowaniu otrzymaliśmy upgrade pokoju — zamiast standardowego pokoju dostaliśmy Juniorsuite, co było bardzo miłym zaskoczeniem. Wszystko było na wysokim poziomie, czysto i komfortowo. fajny kameralny basen. Zdecydowanie polecam ten hotel!
- Francisco (9/5): Tranquilidade no meio do caos do Cairo - A simpatia e a prestabilidade dos funcionários. Particularmente a Aya no apoio do front-desk e também do Mohri.
A localização é excelente, talvez mesmo a melhor do Cairo.
As instalações eram boas e funcionavam bem. A piscina é um pouco pequena, mas agradável, possivelmente insuficiente para a época alta.
O Hotel fornece um tipo de serviços e amenidades que os europeus esperam, apesar da limitação de venda de álcool, compreensível num país maioritariamente muçulmano.
No pequeno almoço os produtos eram de boa qualidade em geral, não sendo excepcionais, mas pode-se dizer que tem um bom pequeno almoço. A falta de espaço na área do pequeno almoço, com cadeiras em cima umas das outras e poucos lugares para sentar. Os copos de sumos eram diminutos.
- Ceren (9/5): -
- Johann (7/5): -
- Cécile (7/5): Un bon hôtel, un peu désuet mais très propre et extrêmement bien situé - Emplacement et roof top
Petit dej très copieux
Chambre spacieuse Ma chambre sentait la fumée de cigarette
La Clim était très bruyante
- Belhouchat (8/5): -
- Aref (8/5): رايع - فندق موقعه جميل على النيل سعره معقول الطاقم جميعا في منتهي الأدب والاحترام والتقدير في التعامل لم يعجبني النوافد لاتفتح غير فتح بسيط
الفطور متواضع
- Nathalie (7/5): Overall, good value. - The location was good and the hotel clean. The staff was very friendly. Breakfast was good. The pillows. Bathroom toiletries were dirty.
- Nashir (7/5): - Location was good. Decent value for the money. Breakfast selection was amazing. Bathroom was a bit on the cramped side. Water pressure was low. Room seemed dated.
- Olaru Adrian (9/5): one new experience - The location, the breakfast and the dinner, the room with Nile view, the view by the window, the staff from the dinner and breakfast... not was the shops around the hotel, not were the parks open to the promenade, not was the clean in the street, many noises from the motorcycles and the cars, the corniche was by payment...
- Jean-Marie Le Page (10/5): Séjour agréable dans une ville à découvrir. - Situation géographique idéale.
Petit déjeuner parfait. A recommander.
Personnel disponible et très aimable. Chambres assez bruyantes en raison de l'environnement de l'hôtel.
- Abdulrahman (6/5): لن ازورهم مره اخرى - موقعخ السعر مبالغ والمكان ضيق

- Elena (9/5): -
- Mounir Elazzouny (10/5): -
- patrizia (8/5): Pulito e personale gentilissimo e disponibile - Avrei preferito una sala da pranzo per la colazione in una terrazza o anche al roof top al chiuso e un po’ triste
- Pozdniakova (10/5): - I had an absolutely wonderful stay at this hotel. Everything was perfect — the beautiful atmosphere, excellent service, and attention to every detail made my experience truly memorable.
A very special thank you to Karem, whose kindness, professionalism, and thoughtful attention made my stay even more enjoyable. He went above and beyond to ensure that everything was perfect.
I highly recommend this hotel and look forward to coming back again.

- Emmanuelle (10/5): -
- Omar Nemer (9/5): -
- El1s4 (10/5): Ottima posizione con vista sul Nilo, ideale per famiglie. - Bellissima struttura con vista sul Nilo, buon
ristorante sul rooftop (che offre anche piatti tipici egiziani), sala colazione al piano terra con vasta scelta e ottima qualità dei prodotti.
Abbiamo viaggiato in famiglia in 4 (due bambini 8-11) e abbiamo alloggiato in una suite superior (upgrade della ns prenotazione). Stanza doppia ampia e comoda, dotata di ogni confort e con grande bagno completo di vasca e doccia.
Personale disponibile, cortese e sorridente.
Lasciata una piccola mancia al personale che ha rassettato la stanza, i bambini hanno molto apprezzato la sorpresa trovata al rientro in stanza. -
- nicolas (8/5): - L'hotel est très propre et moderne, le personnel très sympathique.
Petit déjeuner très bien
Nous avons immédiatement été surclassé avec une chambre vue sur le Nil, vue fabuleuse! L'isolation vers l'exterieur très mauvaise, bruits de klaxons toute la nuit. pas de double vitrage.
Nous avons pris une chambre pour 4, mais juste deux lits très petits ( a peine 140)
- Felix (7/5): -
- Licenciado Martinez (8/5): - Excelentes instalaciones, bien insonorizado.
- محمد (10/5): -
- Elzbieta (10/5): Cudowny hotel w swietnej lokalizacji, idealny na zwiedzanie oraz relaks przy basenie. - Lokalizacja swietna, tuz przy moscie i promenadzie. Blisko i tanio Uberem wszedzie. Fajny maly basen z jaccuzzi i silownia, dostepne lody Movenpick i kawy Starbucks z dostawa na lezak. Sniadania nie jedlismy ze wzgledu na wczesny lot, ale dostalismy bardzo fajne sniadanie na wynos, ktore zjedlismy na lotnisku. Cudny widok z restauracji na dachu. Personel super uprzejmy, wszedzie - w recepcji, przy basenie, w restauracjach i na pietrach. chyba tylko tyle, ze bylismy tam za krotko :-)
- Lylia (10/5): -
- Miguel (9/5): Buena Ubicación dle Hotel - La ubicación del Hotel , sin embargo me hubiera gustado habitación con vista al Rio Nilo Todo bien
- Ohud (10/5): -
- Ghil Busnach (8/5): molto gradevole, soddisfatte le aspettative - posizione, vista pulizia in camera, odore di fumo
- Jean-Marc (8/5): - Bel emplacement central , personnel charmant, buffet du petit déjeuner de très bonne qualité. Service de taxi exorbitant, demande de 30$ pour une course qui ne valait que 300 livres égyptiennes!!!!
- daniel (8/5): -
- Gürhan (9/5): - It was the best bed i ever slept on any hotel. Very nice breakfast buffet and nice staff. There's a lot of noise coming from outside the hotel until 2 am, which makes it hard to sleep. The air conditioning is quite loud, but I'm not sure if that's a bad thing because it drowns out the outside noise and makes it more bearable.
- çakmak (5/5): Arkadaşımla yan yana odalarda aynı tarihlerde ‘%30 daha fazla ödeme yaparak konaklamak korkunçtu - Konumunu ve çalışanların ilgisini kahvaltı mefruşat ve ses yalıtımı iyiydi Rezervasyon fiyatı hatalıydı. Odadaki sofa yatak leş gibi kokuyordu
- Mohammad (7/5): - الأفطار جيد ومنوع لكن مكان الأفطار صغير وزحمة مخدات السرير كانت قاسية وشكلها مربع غير معتاد
- kevin (6/5): -
- Mohamed Kamal (7/5): -
- Wafi (10/5): Going again definitely - Very clean
Very helpful stuff specially osama
Quite and bright environment Nothing
- Gianni (8/5): - Struttura in una bellissima posizione personale cordiale piccola piscina disponibile durante il giorno con zona relax molto nella e tranquilla terrazza bella con vista sul Cairo In tutta la struttura non servono alcolici il che è un peccato dato la clientela internazionale e il costo per notte e classe dell’hotel. Il costo delle bevande nella struttura ristorante/terrazza è eccessivo per la qualità del servizio e costo eccessivo anche del cibo in struttura. Il cambiavalute dell’hotel non funzionava
- Acquier (9/5): - L'emplacement, personnel très gentil. Piscine trop froide. Mauvaise insonorisation car menuiserie aluminium vieille.
Prévoir un rafraîchissement.
- badre (9/5): - Personnel bienveillant
L'emplacement est parfait. Permet de faire plusieurs choses à pied.
La vue imprenable sur le fleuve.
Petit déjeuner copieux.
Lits confortables.
Piscine petite mais bien entretenue et on y est bien. Pas besoin de draps ils sont fournis.
Comme petit plus on a eu droit au surclassement. Merci Problème sanitaire (odeurs). Ils ont voulu résoudre le problème de suite. Mais j'ai laissé.
- Hendrikje (9/5): Die Lage ist hervorragend! - Das Hotel hat eine tolle Lage. Direkt neben der Oper, dem Cairo Tower und unweit der Metro. Man hat einen schönen Ausblick. Die Fenster sind schalldicht. Alles wunderbar. Es gibt nichts zu kritisieren.
- Christiane (8/5): - Frühstück war wunderbar und sehr lecker - ein tolles Büffet mit arabischen und europäischen Spezialitäten (öffnet auch früh genug, um frühzeitig zu den archäologischen Sites aufzubrechen); die Lage des Hotels ist super! Zu dritt ist es im Zimmer etwas eng, aber in Ordnung. Der Swimmingpool ist sehr schön und eine kleine Oase mitten im Kairoer Trubel.
- Nicole (8/5): - Good location. Good size of room. They should improve the bathroom design. It’s dated back in the time but the rest of the room is really good.
- Alison (8/5): Great location and value - Friendly staff and location They have smoking rooms and we are non smokers. Perhaps they could have floors allocated to non smokers so you cant smell it as soon as you walk out of your room
- Laurence (10/5): Fabuleux séjour - tout était parfait RAS
- RABEE (10/5): - الهدوء وانظافة وحسن التعامل بالاخص الاستاذة آية
- ABDULRAHMAN (1/5): اسلح فندق الصور خداعه - لا وفقكم الله الحجز ٣٢٠ دولار اجبرني ب٣٨٠دولار ام النصب الحمام يطفر المويه ماتتصرف والقيمه ماتستاهل ١٠٠دولار للامانه

- RABEE (10/5): -
- Zied (10/5): Exceptionnel - L’hôtel est idéalement situé et très bien géré. Je tiens à saluer tout particulièrement Mme Aya pour la qualité de son management. Le personnel est très professionnel, réactif et attentif aux besoins des clients. Une excellente expérience. Trois beaux restuarant de qualité que nous avons essayé. Chacun a son charme. Le roof top est exceptionnel.
- Wala (10/5): Good - The location is great and the cleanliness is good The drinks in the fridge were a surprise that I will pay for every drink I drink
I didn't like this it is better to be free because the booking is expensive
- DALYAN (10/5): -

2 lits simple dans une toute petite chambre pour 4.
- Rayan (8/5): Great stay - will stay there next time - Great location, great staff. A little small but good overall. A little wear and tear but nothing major. The breakfast area is small but food is good. The gym is small but also does the job.
- Arnaud (8/5): -
- Sally (9/5): An excellent place to stay when arriving in Cairo, to acclimatise to the weather and to the culture. - Excellent breakfast. Small swimming pool very welcome after hot day sightseeing. Cairo opera house is immediately adjacent and we found tickets for performances each night (about one tenth the cost of Covent Garden). Ice cream bar next to pool was also welcome. Nothing
- Marius (9/5): Sejur confortabil. - Locatia si vederea catre Nil.
- Adel (9/5): -
- Christiana (9/5): - Amazing Nile view from room. Great rooftop restaurant. Mohy at reception was very helpful and friendly. Breakfast had many choices but was not very good. Surprisingly the Egyptian food was very plain.
- Abdulkarim (9/5): -
- Alaa (10/5): -
- Adel (7/5): - Le personnel était très accueillant, à l’écoute et très serviable! Merci pour votre bienveillance! La chambre était très petite et trop juste pour une famille de 4! Lors de notre arrivée le lit pour les enfants n’était pas fait et on a dû attendre avant que ça soit fait alors qu’il était 4h du matin! La douchette de la salle de bain était abîmé et n’a pas été réparé malgré ma réclamation!
