Recent Reviews in Old Cairo

5/5 Excellent

"Situated about 100 yards from the Sphinx, that alone is worth the price of admission. The hotel itself is great, and the roof top restaurant bar has views of the Giza Pyramids, and Spinx that will have your camera working over time. The food is good, and very reasonably priced considering a comparable dinning experience some other legendary world ( say the Eiffel Tower ) landmark would easily run you a bill into the hundreds. Pro tip, the roof restaurant has three levels ( a lot of people only check out the first level ), and the place you are going to want to eat is the very top, third level which seems to get going right after the sun sets.

"OMG!! The views! Wow, breakfast looking at the pyramids. The value was amazing, best breakfast of the whole stay, the staff were so friendly, genuinely lovely people. It's a little tired, but who cares, you are in Egypt and you can see the Sphinx!!!"

Unbeatable location

"Location is unbeatable , staff are very professional (although on the higher cost in comparison, laundry service is meticulously presented) and the facility is nothing generally to complain about. Just do take note on their communication if there is a wedding since you can kiss sleeping warly goodbye."
