Guest Reviews
- A.M.B (9/5): - الغرفة نظيفة لكن صغيرة وطلبنا غرفة اوسع مع دفع الفرق
النت سريع
الطاقم ودود
الموقع ممتاز موعد الفطار الساعة 8
وطاقم الفطار يداوم الساعة 8
كيف يصير؟
المفروض يداوموا قبل بساعة ع الأقل.
- Mubarak (8/5): وسط البلد الفندق وسط الحركه الناس - الفندق جميل ونظيف
والموظفين متعاونين وخاصه الاستاذة مريم وكل العاملين فيه في غرفة على الشارع ف اصوات السيارات
ف غرفه بعيد عن الشارع بدون صوت
- Ieva (10/5): -
- Ahmad (10/5): -
- Mayssa (7/5): - War kein Buffet , Essen muss man warten auf die Frauen die da für jeder Frühstück vorbereitet . Frühstück für mich war klar nicht was besonders . Ich hatte zimmer für 3 Personen mit Balkon war bisschen klein aber das Balkon war schön , Lage fürs Hotel ist sehr central viele laden am Straße und viele Restaurant . Und nicht weit von Nill . In der Toilette steht Wasser auf dem Boden und der Duschbereich ist schwach und nicht vollständig geschlossen, sodass Wasser aus ihm auf den Boden läuft.
- KHALID (6/5): - Room was clean and the bathroom is modern.
Staff were very polite and friendly. Breakfast was good. The entrance is hidden in the back inside side street and at night it looked very scary and couldn't find it without contacting the hotel reception, also the elevator is very old like ancient ones and I thought it may not work at any time. The room was very small.
And the room didn't match the photos I saw when I picked the room.

- AK (6/5): - Nous avions une réservation et nous devions arriver vers 21h, arrivés à l'hôtel on me dit que ma réservation a été annulée et qu'il n'y a plus de chambres disponibles nous avons du aller dans un autre hotel et revenir le lendemain ...
Pas de bouteilles d'eau dans la chambre, le petit déjeuner pour les enfants n'est pas donné sans qu'on le demande en argumentant et pourtant on paye.
De plus mauvaise odeur dans la sdb.

- Sara (2/5): - L'hotel è stato difficilissimo da raggiungere, la posizione non era corretta. La stanza non era pulita, c'era solo una saponetta già usata a disposizione. Il giorno dopo siamo tornati a ritirare i bagagli e nessuno ci ha aperto il cancello per un'ora, siamo rimasti fuori in mezzo al nulla bussando ripetutamente al cancello, nessuno era reperibile al telefono.
- Nela (10/5): Naprosto uzasny. Dekujeme celému personálu, urcite se vratime! - Vše!

- Mohammed (8/5): بكل ما فيها ممتاز - قريب من كل شئ صوت السيارات
- José (9/5): Correcto hotel - Muy buen ubicación si deseas estar en una zona con mucha vida del Cairo. El hotel tiene una calidad muy adecuada para su precio, y el desayuno está muy rico. Te atienden perfectamente por whassap. Cuesta un poco de encontrar la entrada, está algo escondida. Para usar el ascensor hace falta una llave especial que nosotros, al menos, no la tuvimos.

- Jamila (8/5): - LA posizione e la strottura Niente
- Akwaake (4/5): Disappointing - The female staff at the reception was good We were overcharged with extra N$2000 compared to the price which we were given by booking.com
The breakfast was the same everyday, just a brotchen, one egg and kids yogurt. They need to improve.
The staff was smoking inside the hotel at the reception.
- Isidoros (7/5): Good - Kind of old rustic building. But the hotel floors are clean inside. It wasn’t top notch but expected and reasonable.
Breakfast was horrible.
- Carmen (10/5): A home away from home - From the moment we arrived we felt like we were visiting family. The hotels location was perfect to explore Cairo by foot day or night & as 2 women we felt completely safe. The staff @ the hotel were exceptional and definitely showed us what true Egyptian hospitality was. Everything was perfect was just disappointed that I wasn't told beforehand that there would be a 3% extra charge if I paid with my Visa card.
- Mostafa (7/5): Good -
- Bisharah (8/5): Very good - The staff was amazing and the facilities was incredibley clean. The location is perfect for anyone who wants to discover cairo close by. The lift looked a bit old but safe. I would recommend a microwave in the room.

- Anonymous (10/5): Exceptional -
- Anonymous (1/5): INsecure, Police can come anytime checking your passport and interrogate as if we are terrorist. - The location is the only positive thing. This hotel is under Police surveillance all the time . Avoid at all cost. Police can come anytime to check tourist passport and interrogate you. Very scary feeling this hotel. All hotel employee are spies for the Police.
- Alan (9/5): Good location and clean - Love the room, hotel is super good located

- Ehsan (8/5): Very good - The location is great. There should be a better sign that helps to find the location. The staff are really nice and helpful The room was so small for the price. You could hardly put your baggages at room and walk around.
There was not any table to work with laptop and also the room had only one electric outlet that TV was connected to and there was not any power bar too. You should take the TV from outlet to charge your phone.
Overall good place to stay at downtown Cairo
The property even did not put water inaide the room.
Just a bed to sleep
- Feriel (1/5): Overbooking scam -
- Hlamalani (7/5): Excellent staff and great location - The breakfast did not meet our expectations Breakfast was too basic
- Nitesh (6/5): Cairo - Good room size. Comfortable beds.
Friendly staff. Goman went over and above to make our stay more comfortable.
Good location in downtown Cairo. Close walking distance to many amenities. Booked 3 rooms. A day before check-in, they said only 2 rooms were available and they tried to move us to another hotel. Managed to get an additional bed in one of the rooms. No refund for additional room booked though.
A bit difficult to locate building initially.
Same limited breakfast menu every day.
Street/traffic noise audible even with windows closed.
Shower water was cold on some days.
Aircon not working properly in some rooms.
- Faizel (8/5): Very good -
- Salim (10/5): Exceptional - this hotel is really good situated, everything is nearby.. the room was clean easily accessed in the center of the city.. but the most amazing thing about this hotel was 3amou gom3a . This man was extraordinary, very helpful in every aspect. He assisted as and didn't hesitate to give us help when ever we needed. He made sure we got everything we need.. everything we had to know every place we should visit.. he was no doubt the best person we met in Egypt and I would definitely go back to visit it again.
- Andrea (10/5): Our stay at Castello Hotel was amazing, with a perfect location in the heart of Old Cairo, exceptionally friendly staff, - We had a truly wonderful experience at Castello Hotel. The location is unbeatable, right in the heart of Old Cairo, making it the perfect base to explore the city’s rich history and charm.
The staff were incredibly sweet and friendly, going above and beyond to make us feel welcome and comfortable. Our room was absolutely stunning—spacious, beautifully decorated, and impeccably clean.
We highly recommend Castello Hotel to anyone visiting Cairo. It’s a gem that combines great service, an excellent location, and a cozy ambiance. We can’t wait to come back!
- Haytham (3/5): Poor -
- Ketevan (8/5): Very good -
- Cosmin (10/5): Exceptional - Very clean , comfortable so friendly staff and good car service , will definitely return
- Elsharnoby (8/5): Very good -
- Mohamad (8/5): Staff very kind specially the lady in morning shift and husaam - Location and furniture modern new Breakfast very poor same everyday
- Catriona (9/5): Absolutely fit for purpose and made great by the staff. I will be staying again next week. - The staff couldn’t be faulted. They were super-helpful. Great location, very clean and efficient breakfast. I love the old French lift. Smallest points: the veneer on the wash basin tap is peeling so I cut my hand. Minor injury but would have preferred not. The shower mat was so chunky that regardless of where I put it, the bathroom door couldn’t close. I was on my own so it didn’t matter but it would have been nice to have been able to close it. Big gap under the door to my room meant I could hear all the comings and goings through the night. These are not complaints but little things that could be rectified to make a stay even better.

Flexibility with check-in and quick check-out. Welcoming and helpful staff.
Thanks Mohamed. Please try to have dining area closed when people have meals as it was a bit noisy.
As an advice, it would be great to add a small bottle of water and a kettle.
