"I have to give thanks to AJ and MJ for taking special care of me and my wife. Even though there was a confusion with our reservation we felt they did everything possible to make things better for us and they took us out to eat at 2 am to a special restaurant in Giza for one of the best local food experience we had."

10/10 Excellent
"The position of this hotel cannot be beaten. It has a front line viewpoint and from the roof where breakfast is taken the views are fantastic and give a full view of the 3 main Pyramids and the Sphinx. The staff were extremely helpful and arranged everything that was asked for and even accommodated a late check out without any fuss. The rooms are dated but the beds are comfortable and although the bathroom was small and needed updating everything worked without issue. At the price we paid you can’t really criticise anything. The area around the hotel could be intimidating to some so be prepared for not only the traffic and noise but for the street vendors trying to sell you something. Overall a great stay and if this is your destination and you’re on a budget you will find this hotel more than acceptable"

"Hotel was clean, very large room. We did not have the breakfast and the half board dinner was adequate. We are vegan which is not catered to in Cairo in general. You could have plain rice and steamed vegetables but very boring. We stuck with the lentil soup, pizza no cheese and the baba ganoush with bread. The view of the pyramids from the upstairs dining area is spectacular."
