Top As-Sayidah Zaynab Hotel Reviews

Sofitel Cairo Downtown Nile

10/10 Excellent

"This was a beautiful hotel with a nice view of the Nile. I did find the rooms a bit outdated considering the price point and since the hotel lobby and poolside looked so modern, but the rooms were still very clean. It was a convenient location and the check in staff were very friendly. Would recommend staying here if you’re looking to be close to the Nile and central Cairo."

Steigenberger Hotel El Tahrir Cairo

10/10 Excellent

"A very clean and comfortable and modern hotel. The breakfast was excellent and good choices. Staff are always smiling and helpful and they do a thorough job of cleaning the rooms inside out. We chose the airport hotel taxi, which was very prompt and patient even though our flight was delayed. The location is very close to one of the museums and lots of shops and restaurants around."

Marriott Mena House Cairo

10/10 Excellent

"It’s a wonderful place to stay for any reason, food is delicious! Room, interior and exterior are always very clean. The view of the pyramids from the restaurant is amazing!! The entertainment! Everything is first class. But the most wonderful thing about it, is the staff, always on top of your needs, very nice and attentive. I was sick for a few days and the called to check on me, sent me soup, tea…. I just love the place. You will not regret it. Gooooo…."

The Nile Ritz-Carlton, Cairo

10/10 Excellent

"What one would expect from a 5 star hotel - spacious rooms, attentive staff, excellent food and restaurant choices. Enjoyed the breakfast as there were a variety of food choices. While we did not face the Nile or street view, we faced toward the museum. The sound from outside below (wedding and entertainment patio) carried to the 11th floor so if you are not a sound sleeper, suggest bringing ear plugs or don’t go to bed before 10 pm!"
