The Nile Ritz-Carlton, Cairo

The Palace Pyramids inn

10/10 Excellent

"My stay at this hotel was absolutely excellent! The staff were incredible always friendly, welcoming, and ready to help with any questions or requests I had. The rooms were very clean and comfortable, and the breakfast was delicious. I strongly recommend watching the sunset from the rooftop; the view is breathtaking and truly an unforgettable experience. The staff were easily a 10/10 and made my stay even more enjoyable. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting!"

Marriott Mena House Cairo

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed a Marriott Mena House for 4 nights as a base for site-seeing the pyramids and the new museum. It's a fantastically maintained property with lovely rooms (we had a pyramid view deluxe double), wonderful green space and a fantastic pool area. The staff are wonderful and go above and beyond to make the stay memorable. Special shout out to the concierge for helpful us with airline-lost baggage. The only consideration is location. The hotel is perfect for the pyramids and new museum, but is approx. 30-40 minutes drive from downtown Cairo for the old museum, grand bazaar etc etc. We would recommend Marriott Mena House over and over again. It's truly fantastic hotel."

Layla Hostel

10/10 Excellent

"staff were wonderful and the property is beautiful. the cats are adorable (but please get them spayed!) which was a huge bonus to a mad cat woman like myself. location was great, staff so helpful with all questions, lovely and quiet and the decor is beautiful. i came with my mum and we had an amazing time visiting giza, saqqara, memphis etc. plenty of places to walk to nearby to eat. my mum has mobility issues and we were able to request a ground floor room with a private bathroom which was perfect for my mum’s accessibility needs. would recommend to anyone :)"

Steigenberger Hotel El Tahrir Cairo

10/10 Excellent

"We booked this hotel very last minute when let down by our previous hotel and they were fantastic!

I have nothing but good things to say about this experience and really made our stay in Cairo so much easier"
