"The staff was great but my room could use some renovations and a dresser. I had a private room and bathroom. If you are planning to live out of a backpack then the lack of storage space will be fine. I had to live out of my suitcase because I had no where to store my things."

"The Hotel is situated in a newly renovated apartment, so extremely clean with new beds, bedding and spotless bathroom with a great shower. The fabulous breakfast was served in bed The only problem is that there’s no proper window, as it’s closed shut"

"I had a fantastic stay at this beautiful hostel in Cairo! The building is a fully renovated 120-year-old home, and it’s absolutely stunning, full of charm and character. We stayed in a private room with a king-size bed and were wowed by the elegant chandelier that gave the space a special touch. The staff were incredibly helpful and welcoming throughout our stay, always ready to assist with anything we needed. The location is great too — close to Tahrir Square, which made it easy to explore the...

Fairmont Nile City, Cairo

10/10 Excellent

"The staff is really nice and helpful Very hospitable High quality amenities "

Marriott Mena House Cairo

10/10 Excellent

"I stayed at Marriott Mena House and it exceeded all expectations. The location is perfect, just steps away from the Pyramids of Giza, with the most incredible view you can imagine. My room looked directly at the Great Pyramid and waking up to that sight was absolutely unforgettable. The property is well maintained with lush gardens, a beautiful pool, and a blend of modern comfort and historic charm. Service was excellent. Staff were attentive, friendly, and always willing to help. Breakfast overlooking the pyramids was another highlight of my stay. If you visit, I recommend booking a Pyramid View room. It is more expensive but worth every cent for the once-in-a-lifetime experience. Overall, this is the best hotel in Giza and I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Cairo."

Cairo Marriott Hotel & Omar Khayyam Casino

10/10 Excellent

"The entire staff goes above and beyond. Special shout out to Maria in the pink jacket! House keeping was great. Restaurants were nice. Pool attendants did a great job. This property was under some mild construction but you will easily forgive that for the rich palace history and amazing detail. Very happy with our stay."
