I had a lovely stay at this hotel, located right in the heart of Cairo. The rooms were clean and had a great hot shower, making for a comfortable experience. The staff, especially Omar at the reception, were very friendly and helpful. On the downside, the dining options could use a little improvement as they were limited. Overall, it’s a fantastic spot for exploring the city, especially being so close to the Egyptian museum and metro station.

I had a great stay at this hotel, located right in the heart of Cairo, which made it super convenient to explore the city and visit the Egyptian Museum just across the street. The rooms were not only clean but also quite comfortable. The staff, especially Omar at the reception, were very friendly and accommodating. However, I found the dining options a bit lacking, as the breakfast could definitely use more variety. Overall, it was a fantastic value for the price.

I had a pleasant stay at the hotel, which is centrally located in Cairo and close to many important attractions. The rooms were clean, but the towels had a bit of a detol smell, which was not ideal. The service was excellent, especially from Omar, the night receptionist, who was incredibly helpful. On the downside, I felt that the amenities could use a little improvement to fully match the great location.

The hotel is located right in the heart of Cairo, making it super convenient to explore all the nearby attractions, including being just across from the Egyptian Museum. The rooms were delightful, featuring a lovely hot shower and a spacious bathroom. The staff, especially Omar at the night shift, were incredibly friendly and helpful. However, the dining options were somewhat limited and mostly pre-packaged, which was a bit disappointing. Overall, it was a decent value for money, but I wish the dining experience was better.
