The room was beautifully furnished with 3 balconies providing 270 degree view. The property’s true strength is its beautiful beach and sunset views. The main shortcomings is a very limited number of restaurants (2) which is rather unusual for such a sprawling resort. All in all, an excellent stay."

"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."
