"The location is very central and convenient. The price is very friendly. But the room cannot really sleep 4. The so called double bed are not real double bed, only slightly wider than a single bed. The online booking specifies age 0-17 as children. But the hotel doesn’t acknowledge that. I suggest the management to update their online listing to avoid confusion and disappointment."

"The hotel as hall was satisfactory standard! Staff in general were polite. I think they can benefit from a customer service awareness course as some of them was below standard specially on the bar area in our arrival it took the guy 45 minutes to get us 2 club sandwiches and when they eventually arrived the sandwich and the chips were called.

"Two year old hotel, modern and in a good part of Cairo. Near shopping areas and main tourist areas. Staff helpful, and issue with the food etc. Live music many of the evenings. Down side was the interconnecting doors in the rooms.. Felt like your room neighbour was in the room.. Design fault with the doors ? or too thin. ? Had mentioned to the team, they were aware, but full hotel meant the room could not be changed."

"Amazing view of the Pyramids of Giza. The night i arrived was a very clear night and my balcony had the best view. They assigned me a person driver to pick me up from the airport and a tour guide, I asked about food on the way from the airport to the hotel and they held the kitchen open for me to arrive. All staff were very kind and protective of me, as I traveled to Cairo alone. My driver escorted me on all my excursions, he protected me from scammers and so did my guide. I was very fortunate...
