Great view, good location, the entrance gate of the pyramids is 10 mins walking. I have been in several hotels during my round trip, and this was the ONLY Hotel, where they were honest, did not try to trick me or push me to buy anything, and they were kind, flexible and professional. And Hossam was very helpful on the last day as well, so next time when I return Cairo, 100% sure I will chose this hotel. My new friends stayed also in this hotel, and they also had the same very good experience here.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at an amazing hotel in downtown Cairo, and I must say, my experience was nothing short of spectacular. From the moment I entered the hotel, I was captivated by the stunning design and luxurious ambiance. In addition to the historical passage where the place located. The unique blend of antique aesthetics and modern comfort created an inviting atmosphere that truly felt like stepping back in time. Moreover, the staff at the hotel were exceptional. They were incredibly helpful and attentive, always ready to assist with a smile. Their dedication to providing top-notch service made my stay even more enjoyable. Overall, I highly recommend this antique hotel to anyone visiting Cairo. It’s a perfect blend of luxury, history, and excellent hospitality that will make your stay unforgettable.

This hotel is new and undergoing an extensive renovation process. Positive aspects to consider: The Booking.com images match reality: the rooms are new, with new furniture, spacious layout, very comfortable king-size beds, and large pillows. Everything is brand new, from the wardrobes to the bathroom. New Carrier air conditioning units, a large refrigerator, TV, LED lights, wardrobe, and a bathroom with a shower cabin or bathtub. Hot water has normal pressure but is very comfortable for showering. Excellent soundproofing from the street—it doesn’t feel like you’re in the city center. The hotel’s location is excellent: city center, within walking distance of Tahrir Square. The area is safe, with a police station on the back street. In front of the hotel is MISR Bank with a 24-hour ATM that always works. Don’t be fooled by the building’s old exterior—the interior is renovated, and improvements are still ongoing. The WiFi works very well (VDSL technology, typical Cairo speeds). Multiple hotel routers ensure a stable, uninterrupted connection. The breakfast is delicious and authentically Egyptian: coffee, milk, fruit, bread, jam, butter, "La Vache Qui Rit" cheese, etc. Breakfast is served on a terrace next to reception, overlooking a busy street with two benches. Strongly advise against renting a car—don’t even think about it! Uber is the smartest, most practical, and affordable option. We used it dozens of times flawlessly. The STAFF is fantastic!!! JOUSEF, ABDALLA, ERINY—all young, tourism-trained, friendly, and attentive. They communicate via WhatsApp, always smile, and promptly fulfill requests. We requested a room change due to a shower leak, and they moved us immediately.

Very good location and safe lifts. The entrance to the hotel is clean and welcoming. I came early and they gave us an early checking-in because of it. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The rooms were very clean and the beds were comfortable and big. The area was good and the rooms were sound-proof. Ac units worked well and wifi was also stable. The breakfast was very nice, and when we requested an omelette, extra bread and tea they provided us with them. Very safe location with lots of cheap food stores, coffee shops and restaurants.
