Deluxe Double Room, Courtyard View | Courtyard view

"I had a fantastic stay at this beautiful hostel in Cairo! The building is a fully renovated 120-year-old home, and it’s absolutely stunning, full of charm and character. We stayed in a private room with a king-size bed and were wowed by the elegant chandelier that gave the space a special touch. The staff were incredibly helpful and welcoming throughout our stay, always ready to assist with anything we needed. The location is great too — close to Tahrir Square, which made it easy to explore the...

Top Cairo Hotel Reviews

Marriott Mena House Cairo

10/10 Excellent

"Great"

Four Seasons Hotel Cairo at Nile Plaza

10/10 Excellent

"I have been to great hotels all around the world but this one stands out. First, it is beautifully decorated and designed. Second, the service is better than any I have seen in 10 countries. The bed and pillows are the most comfortable gift at the end of a tiring day of sight seeing. The bathroom is elegant and beautiful. Even the toilet has a water jet. The cleaning staff cleans twice a day and are so considerate. There 9 restaurants and lounges in the hotel and all are wonderful. We chose to eat exclusively at the hotel. Security is very tight and one feels very safe there. The sashimi was incredibly fresh and the fusion dishes of Bullona restaurant was delicious. The prices are expensive but in comparison to New York and Miami or Europe, it is much cheaper. All in all, it was one of the finest stays I have had, and I have been to 5 star hotels in Dubai, Paris, Rome, New York, Venice. This is truly a memorable hotel."

Sofitel Cairo Nile El Gezirah

10/10 Excellent

"This is one of the best hotels to stay in that is fairly near the Pyramid complex. I didn't bother with the cheap hotels, and it was all worth it! The rooms were spacious and clean. The food was good. The pool was a refreshing break in-between touring the hot, bustling city. The staff was very friendly and attentive. I would come back here again!"
