Cairo Festival City Holidays from £344

If you are visiting Egypt, Zen Pyramids Luxury Villa is hands down the absolute best place to stay. I originally booked a 1-week stay on Expedia, but I loved it so much that I immediately extended for another 10 days! ​Here is why this property is unbeatable: ​World-Class Hospitality: The owners, managers, front desk, and housekeeping staff are incredible. Everyone is genuine, kind, and attentive. They go out of their way to take care of you and make you feel 100% at home. ​Atmosphere & Amenities: Beautiful, calm, and super relaxing. The property features a fantastic pool, convenient in-house laundry service, and a delicious daily breakfast. ​Prime Location: Super close to both the Pyramids and the museum, making sightseeing effortless. ​Seamless Tours & Transportation: The hotel runs its own travel and tour operations directly from the property with private cars. They can organize everything—ATV desert rides, Nile tours, scuba diving, camping, and spiritual retreats. The prices are extremely fair with no middleman commissions, third-party hassle, or drama. ​This was easily one of the best experiences I’ve ever had. Zen Pyramids Luxury Villa is the only spot I will stay at whenever I visit Egypt!

Ghandi, Morgan, and all of the staff were wonderful! They arranged airport pickup, offered help with tours, and were very communicative through WhatsApp. The complimentary breakfast was spectacular. And I will miss the mango juice! We also ordered dinner in-room late at night and that was delicious! The rooms don’t disappoint, they are exactly as pictured. We stayed in the Galaxy suite and had a view of the 3 pyramids with a jacuzzi tub, which was lovely. I would personally opt for this versus other hotels like the popular Mena House because it is a boutique hotel feeling, it’s more personalized, and every room has a spectacular view for a reasonable price. The location is also good, it’s obviously close to the pyramids and we felt very safe and secure —no scary elevators or stairs. My husband wanted to get a haircut and we were able to get one late at night with the help of Ghandi. Ghandi walked us over to a barber shop and stayed with us the whole time. I highly recommend Galaxy and the other properties under the same management (they look very similar but are located on another side of the pyramids). Thank you so much for a wonderful stay!
