Top Railway Museum Hotel Reviews

Sofitel Cairo Downtown Nile

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was extremely helpful and kind. Addituonally the property was very clean and tidy. I would definitely recommend and will be staying there on future trips."

Steigenberger Hotel El Tahrir Cairo

10/10 Excellent

"The best and safe location in Cairo. When in Cairo, hotel location is a must. The hotel is very conveniently located, across the old Egyptian Museum. This is where you need to be if it's your first time. Turn left as you get out the hotel and that will take you everything you need from dining, shopping, souvenirs. One piece of advise, do not engage a conversation when someone approach you in the corner or alone the shopping lanes. Otherwise, Steingenberger has the best service, front desk, room, dining staff and even the sales staff in the mini shop. Enjoy!"

Sama Hotel Sherif Bash

10/10 Excellent

"Staff amazing Everyone and everything was above expectations for the price! Only suggestion is time for new sheets. They are pilled. If looking for budget friendly room LOOK here! They have airport transport for a very reasonable fee. Per car not per person."
