Guest Reviews

• Paul (9/5): - Very friendly staff and helpful Access to the travel group I was meeting with
• Deborah (8/5): -
• Ben (8/5): Recommend - Very good service
• ماجد (8/5): - اعجبني موظف الاستقبال كان محترم وماقصرت معاي ازعاج السيرات. العربيات
• James (8/5): Nice place to stay in Cairo/Giza - The included breakfast is very nice and it is in a very nice location right by the Nile and close access to many restaurants. Wifi in my room was very spotty, although the wifi in Egypt in general seemed to not be so good so not sure if it could be fixed.
• Mohammed (5/5): - البناء جيد الموقع جيد جدا تعامل الموظفين جيد جدا المكيف لا يعمل وطلبت تصليحه ولم يتم تصليحه لايوجد في الحمام مناديل فقط صابون نظافة الفراش غير جيدة انترنيت سيئ
• Ali (5/5): -
• Hassan (6/5): -
• محمد (9/5): - المكان نظيف و مؤثث بشكل جيد و الدور ال 16 يرى البحر جيدا بالرغم من كون العمارة صف ثاني
• Margarita (4/5): - The location was in a very dirty street and didn't look save to walk around. The facilities are very round down.
• مبارك (5/5): -
• Nada (6/5): Pleasant -
• Sara (8/5): Clean and fairly comfortable. Near a bank and a little shop plus has an onsite restaurant - Super friendly staff
• Kevin (9/5): The staff was very friendly and extremely helpful. -
• Collette (6/5): Fair for price - Good location Nice view from restaurant Shower didn’t drain well Needed a bit of maintenance Breakfast more geared towards locals and didn’t like smoking in restaurant
• Eva (9/5): Enjoyable enough to recommend - View from breakfast room was great, coffee was good, staff very accommodating to my requests Wifi signal in the room was very weak
• Chuck (6/5): Pleasant - Very welcoming and helpful desk staff. Excellent breakfast. Room was tired and basic. Could have been cleaner and very noisy. Sheets didn’t fit bed. Strange.
• Rasha (8/5): Excellent location, clean room, good service. - Clean, excellent location, very close to the Nile.
• Brett (6/5): Good - Food and coffee in the restaurant was quite good. Comfortable with good aircon. Inconsistent showers across rooms. Some of the young staff were not satisfied with amount tipped, and tried to ask for more. I’m sorry, but this is absolutely unprofessional.
• Mustafa (6/5): Pleasant -
• Jeannie (5/5): Value place to stay for my recent Egyptian tour - Convenience for tour and airport connection Poor internet service
• Alfredo (10/5): Exceptional -
• Sam (10/5): Exceptional -
• Farrelli (10/5): Went on a intrepid tour and was very happy - I thought it was very nice and I enjoyed the restaurant downstairs and the morning buffet as well. I felt safe and the staff helped out any time I needed something. Everything was great
• Ibrahim (2/5): Very poor -
• Al (5/5): Passable - Location Ac not cold.. no water in room
• Adel (10/5): Exceptional -
• Tom (8/5): World class food/ deceptive reception manager - The restaurant is world class (okay maybe not but really good for Cairo) I took some gastro risks with the menu over multiple days and always felt fine afterwards. Tell them Tom sent you when you ask for the Lemon Mint with Ice if you are brave. Reception management. Upon arrival They asked me to pay in Egyptian pounds and applied to themselfs a very favourable conversion rate (which I didn’t realise at the time, too naieve) Shower had warm - hot - scalding but no cold. Aircon did it best but was old and ineffective ( the quality you’d expect at a much cheaper hotel.) On the day I was due to fly out my flight was delayed and a friend I had met allowed me to leave my bags in his room and have a shower. Reception wasn’t happy🤷‍♂️ I explained that the price my new friend paid for his room a three bed “single” was actually substantially more than the (live) booking.com price for two people but he wouldn’t hear about it. My new friend then asked for a refund and said he would just rebook the room for two. (Impossible said the manager) fine I will pay an extra person excess, he insisted I pay cash and double the (live price) just for an extra person in the room not even an extra room? Crazy? I was on the booking.com app trying to just book the room and he kept trying to touch my phone (not sure why maybe to stop me booking and rob him of his ability of a quick cash bonus. Upset that I dare get a good price went to the hotel police (located at every western hotel to stop Egyptian and non Egyptian mixed unmarried couples sharing a room) but thankfully the policeman just shook his head (realising that the manager was on a power trip) I decided it was best to just go to the airport a few hrs early. I was escorted to the room and quickly made to pack. I ended up leaving things behind. The owner of the hotel seemed nice so I am assuming this was a rogue manager but your hotel is only as good as your staff. I can’t recommend. Check out my other reviews I like to think that I have always proven to be fair in the past.
• Lorraine (8/5): Very good - Friendly staff. Appropriately priced. Rooms were clean.
• Judith (5/5): Met my needs - The best things about this hotel are the helpfulness and friendliness of the staff and the cafe. The cafe is first rate! Housekeeping was a bit iffy
• Oluyomi (7/5): Good central location for short stay - Reception & other hotel staff were warm welcoming and attentive Rooms, linen and towels could do with a refresh
• Hatem (2/5): its not clean and too much noisy - nothing everything
• Anonymous (7/5): Good - friendly staff , nice location the photos of the rooms are not correct , i took the room with nile view but there was no balkon like the photo.
• Lisab23 (8/5): Very good - The room was spacious , comfortable and clean, with a nice balcony. Staff are friendly and helpful. The hallway noise can get quite loud and the sound seems to carry throughout the hotel.
• Trms (8/5): Very good -
• Ebrahim (10/5): Exceptional - Clean room, good food, good care from staff all the time. Nothing .
• Anwar (6/5): Pleasant -
• Balla (5/5): Passable -
• Julie (7/5): Good - Café attached so you can eat or drink without out leaving. on a side street but depending what side of building you are on it can be loud
• Terry (6/5): Pleasant -
• Nathan (7/5): Good -
• Rory (7/5): Good -
• Lucy (9/5): Superb -
• Rory (7/5): Good -
• Arslan (7/5): Good -
• Sarahmk13 (5/5): Good enough for a sleep if everything goes smoothly - The hotel restaurant view, breakfast buffet and restaurant staff were great. The bellboys were good. The bed in my 2nd room was comfortable. The bed in my first room was hard as a rock. The bathroom showers were tiny and didn't drain well. The air conditioner leaked like mad and I had to use my towels on the floor to try to make sure the puddle didn't get too big. The room also was just on the borderline of clean enough/ a little grimy. When I switched rooms (not my decision, the hotel moved me as I was joining a tour group) I left a cloth laundry bag with dirty laundry including some expensive items in my first room and it disappeared. I understand I shouldn't have forgotten anything in room and ultimately the fault lay with me, but it was handled very poorly. The front desk staff kept telling me they had to talk to maid service but despite me asking multiple times over 2 days, they never followed up or were able to return my bag before I had to leave. I just felt like they were avoiding answering me and waiting for me to leave. If they had just told me that my bag was gone and apologized, this review would be probably a 7.
