I was very impressed with this hotel. I had stayed before at other downtown hotels in Cairo and I would say this is by far the best one. It was very clean, renovated and nice staff. Nice rooms, very good breakfast, nice bathrooms with complete showers. It has everything you need and more. Very close to places to eat and the Egyptian museum. I would come back and recommend it for sure to any one. Worth the price. I’m not sure why it better rate it.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Excellent location for the Egyptian museum. Booked a 2-bedroom family room, got a small twin room. I gave the hotel the option of moving us to the paid-for room or returning the money difference, they moved us to a bigger room with three twin beds. Since it was on the quiet side of the hotel (no street noise), we were OK with it. The hotel/room is probably nice by downtown Cairo standards: efficient AC, hot water, clean, wifi slow but working. Our only significant complaint would be the mattresses which were of the cheapest type and terrible. Rooms are on floors 7-9 of what looks like a residential building, occasional electricity outage made us take the stairs. Elevators (when they work) are small but OK. Would rate it 8.5 out of 10 for Egypt.
