Sheraton Al Matar

10/10 Excellent

The Waldorf Astoria is one of the best hotels we have ever stayed at... It is stunning and for travellers who want luxury, convenience and an unforgettable stay, this is the place. The hotel oozes quality. The staff are fantastic, the rooms (we were upgraded to a suite) are beautiful, spacious and clean. The facilities, including restaurant and pool are also excellent. The staff were friendly and accommodating. I would not stay anywhere else in Cairo - by far the best hotel for miles around....

We had the balcony room. It was beautiful, clean and with an amazing view of the pyramids. The owner was just amazing, full of great spirit, super friendly and helpful. We were only staying one night and had planned to (hopefully) walk to the pyramids in the morning and take a couple of pictures from afar before our flight to Luxor. We were offered a package of pyramids and museum of Egyptian civilization. The whole experience did not disappoint. We had breakfast at 7.30 then left with the...

The check-in at 1am was very smooth and the guy at the desk was so processional, welcoming and smiling. We were given a room with Nile view on the 15th floor which was really nice. The room was large and bed was comfortable. There was kettle for tea/coffee and tea bags, water bottles etc; we were given more every time we requested. The room was clean and the whole hotel was clean, though the carpets were a bit dated. The breakfast spread was superb and choices were really extensive. The man who...

We stayed at the Hilton with our 8 years old daughter for about 2 weeks. The hotel and especially the staff couldn’t do anything more to make our stay comfortable. We had an issue with our room and Rania (Guest Relations manager) was fantastic! She arranged a replacement room and made sure we are comfortable with our daughter. Special thanks also to Eiman from the house keeping team who kept us always looked after. All in all, the hotel amenities and staff service is 5 star!

Book a luxury suite in Giza to enjoy views of the pyramids over breakfast on the terrace. Alternatively, revel in the refined elegance of the affluent suburb of Heliopolis, where upscale places to stay combine traditional charm with superb contemporary standards.

Enjoy Individual Attention to Detail

Tailoring a holiday exactly to your requirements is the essence of a luxury stay in Cairo. From private tours of the city’s UNESCO World Heritage Sites to classic Nile cruises and personal spa days, the city has a wealth of experiences custom-designed to enhance your stay.

Cairo also excels at shopping and offers an array of international malls to match its wonderful souks and local markets, bazaars and independent stores. Downtown galleries and venues provide exciting opportunities to discover interesting new art and artists, and they create fascinating counterpoints to the ancient marvels that make Cairo such a cultural icon.

Experience World-Class Standards and Authentic Culture

Whether you want to have dinner in a revolving restaurant overlooking the desert or prefer the captivating mystique of legends like Café Riche, Cairo’s restaurants are as many and varied as the city’s culinary styles. Many top hotels also have renowned cocktail bars and lounges for pre-dinner drinks and nightcaps, which can balance a night out in one of the more ancient and atmospheric quarters beautifully.

Rich in literature, art, theatre and music, Cairo is never less than entertaining. Get dressed up for a night of arias and recitative at the Cairo Opera House, or for something a little livelier, see Al-Tannoura, the city’s only Sufi dance troupe, in action. Spend an evening watching them whirl and spin in ancient Wikala el Al-Ghouri on the edge of the hauntingly lovely Medieval quarter.
