Sofitel Cairo Downtown Nile
Great staff and very friendly service. The lobby was nice decorated for the holiday season and was expansive. The room was spacious, but needed a couple of cleaning adjustments when we first checked in. The views of the Nile from our balcony was nice as well! The reason I can only rate this hotel ...
