Mosque of al-Aqmar

I love the fact that I could see the pyramids from the the top floor where they serve free breakfast. The room was cold, but I guess it was because I came in March. So everything was great except for one staff member who was very nasty to me because I couldn’t understand her accent so I stayed far from her.

This beautiful boutique hotel is nestled at the foot of the Giza pyramid plateau providing a gorgeous view of the pyramids from the rooftop terrace as well as a room with the view. The charming and peaceful atmosphere coupled by the proprietor Mr.Ahmed and his staff provided a gracious and hospitable stay. They went above and beyond to provide unparalleled service making sure to really personalize my stay. This included a dance party on the morning of my birthday with the staff members on the terrace, afternoon conversations while viewing a gorgeous sunset, also rooftop ( the sofa was my favorite spot) In addition I met a business man from Dubai in the lobby who stays there every time he comes to Giza weather business or vacation. With many options in the city that’s quite the compliment. I recommend this little jewel of a hotel it’s a must stay while visiting Cairo.

The room looked exactly as pictured online, so I was pleased. The most noteworthy thing is the staff. They were amazing!! I would have given a five if not for my struggle with the breakfast food choices. I just wish they had more protein options and not carbs. The view of the pyramid every morning was amazing. I would definitely recommend it to any travelers.
