Pyramids Gate Hotel is the best place to stay in Egypt. Clean, comfortable, close to the pyramids, but the best thing about this place is the people that work there, the staff. They are very kind, friendly and hospitable. They will help you with anything you need, organize tours, transportation, their tour guides are the best in the world, they are always making sure that you are well & safe, they will even team up to help you get your money back from scammers if you got scammed. I recommend this place to everyone.

The hotel is genuinely one of the most beautiful hotels you can find in Cairo. Yes, you might find cheaper options, but believe me, the compromise on quality isn't worth it. We stayed here for three nights and then decided to extend our reservation for another day, but there was no availability, so we found a different, cheaper hotel. That's when I truly realized that the Sayyed Efendi Hotel is one of the finest hotels in Cairo. If you can find an available room, I'd say don't miss it. In Cairo, you'll likely be out exploring all day, and when you return to your room, it feels like a remedy to step into a space isolated from the city's chaos and noise. All the employees, especially those at the reception, were incredibly friendly, and chatting with them was a lot of fun. The beds and pillows we slept on were very comfortable. Absolutely no noise came into the room, which is a very important detail. And to get to the part that truly enchanted me: the bathrooms were wonderful. You can wash away the day's fatigue under a great shower. Frankly, I stayed at another hotel in Cairo, and it was nothing like this. Believe me, in a country like this, the comfort of the shower you take when you return to your room in the evening is very important. Your towels are changed daily, they provide high-quality shampoo and shower gel, and there's hot water available at all times. As for the breakfast, it's also one of the best you can find in Cairo. While there are local varieties, there are also flavors to suit everyone's palate, so don't worry, you won't go hungry (at worst, you can have cereal). There is a very nice rooftop terrace where breakfast is also served. It’s like a cafe, and it's a separate pleasure to come up in the evening and chat in the cool air. We arrived early, and they did everything they could to help us.

The decoration is very nice. Amenities are good. Location is great too but it is not exactly at the address indicated when you look it up on Google Maps (it is a little more to the side). And since it is inside a residential building, you don't really know where to go and the receptionist has to come out to pick you up. There is no breakfast included but that's fine because there is a cafe at the end of the street.

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.
