Gezira Hotel Guide - Golf Hotels in Gezira, Cairo

"Rooms need a good clean "

"At first from the other reviews I was expecting the worst. But honestly for a night or a transit, I think this is the best option in Cairo and I’ve been flying there for work for past 10 years (so I know it can be really great or utterly decrepit!). The rooms are clean, comfortable, have all you need. The staff is efficient and do their jobs. Housekeeping was a joy - MARWA WAS THE BEST AND WENT THE EXTRA MILE FOR EVERYTHING! The breakfast was very good with fresh tamiya (Egyptian fellafel) made on the spot, the shuttle to their is confusing and annoying - so only downside - take the free shuttle out the terminal that’s not of the hotel and tell them you’re stopping at the Novotel - it can be daunting for the untrained! Or just uber it there. Shuttle to airport was great - every 30 min. Highly recommend and I will definitely stay here for transit stays in Cairo! It’s really good value"

"Every thing was very good except dinner food was very bad"

"This hotel is the perfect base to explore the Pyramids at Giza and Saqqara. We used their personalised entrance service to go directly to the pyramids without the usual entrance way which was nice - it’s not a glamorous entrance mind, but it’s very convenient. We also added the additional tour guide option which made exploring the site much more efficient as well as learning a few extra nuggets of local knowledge and historical insight. The hotel itself is tucked away from the rest of Cairo in its own compound so was surprisingly quiet. The grounds themselves are well maintained with lovely lawns and water features for the birds. The food was good, though if you’re vegan the lunch menu was poor. That being said, the tomato sauce and pasta was actually the best I’ve had pretty much anywhere so that’s a plus! The Indian restaurant on site however had amazing vegan options and we ordered too much because the portion sizes were pretty big! The room itself was clean and tidy and had everything we’d need - but the internet connection is terrible. Better to rely on your own 5G connection."
