The Hotel is a Gem! Frozen in 30 to 1950th style you can stay in the past. The Breakfast at the rooftop is mesmerising, the staff is doing sonwell you cant barely find some equivalent. Around the Corner younwill find the shoe manufacturer Babel, Ihighly recommend, the Swiss restaurant, which inlove and serve famous swiss local dishes. The traffic is a little rushing, but to get a real royal Cairo experience - do it!

The hotel is a tired old beauty. A little rough around the edges but a classic old hotel with its open elevator to the rooftop restaurant. The staff is friendly and courteous. Take the rooftop garden suite for an incredible stay :)

The hotel has a rustic charm. They clean it well, but it felt like parts of the room could use a bit of an update. We had a room facing the street where we could hear music from businesses below, but it didn't keep us up at night.

The hotel staff and location are great, but the room key is hard to open, the bathroom door doesn't open after it's been closed, the air conditioner doesn't work, and the Wifi isn't working. Is it just my room? I will come back to this hotel again during my stay in Cairo. I am very excited but a little nervous. The hotel is very antique and the elevator is amazing!!

The hotel is full of charm and original wooden panelling. I loved it. Like stepping back in time. The bedroom furniture was a bit disappointing but the rest of the hotel made up for that. From the period elevator to the lovely rooftop bar/restaurant, there was something to look at. No bland, corporate walls in sight. The staff were lovely. Staying here is a taste of the glory days of travel in the early 20th century.

Fascino retrò, ma con margini di miglioramento

L’hotel si trova in una zona vivace del Cairo, affacciato su una piazza che può risultare piuttosto rumorosa, con il suono di clacson, cani e musica. La posizione potrebbe non essere adatta a chi cerca tranquillità o un contesto più curato. La struttura ha un fascino un po’ retrò, con un rooftop piacevole e camere ampie. Tuttavia, gli ambienti, seppur spaziosi, avrebbero bisogno di un rinnovamento, così come il livello di pulizia potrebbe essere migliorato. Il bagno, grande e comodo, è un punto positivo. Il servizio, purtroppo, è limitato: lo staff è abbastanza gentile, ma non molto capace di supportare gli ospiti e alcuni servizi, come la prenotazione di un taxi, sono proposti con sovrapprezzo. Non sono attrezzati per organizzare tour o altre attività locali. La colazione, inclusa nel prezzo, è discreta, anche se offre poca varietà. In sintesi, l’hotel ha alcuni punti di forza, ma per il prezzo pagato, in linea con altre strutture simili al Cairo, è probabile che ci siano alternative più soddisfacenti a disposizione.
