"The owner and staff were quite helpful in booking tours and making us feel welcome. The restaurant on the top floor is also a great feature as it has a fantastic view of the pyramids and sphinx as well as good food and drinks. We were on a little bit of a budget but were able to still have a very nice time staying at this hotel and we were able to do some great tours right from the hotel."

5/5 Excellent

"Great location. The hotel staff was great. Breakfast on the rooftop with a backdrop of the Sphinx and Great Pyramids is unbeatable. Only concern was the room. It was smaller than anticipated but did the job. "

5/5 Excellent

"I had an amazing experience at this hotel! From the moment I arrived, I was impressed by the cleanliness of the entire property—everything was spotless and well-maintained. I also felt very safe throughout my stay, which gave me great peace of mind, especially as a traveler. One of the absolute highlights was the incredible view of the pyramids—truly breathtaking and something I’ll never forget. The rooftop area was perfect for relaxing, with delicious food, attentive service, and a panoramic view that made every meal feel special. Breakfast was also exceptional, with a generous and flavorful spread that kept me going for the day. The staff went above and beyond to accommodate any requests I had—they were always friendly, helpful, and genuinely cared about making my stay enjoyable. Considering all these perks, I found the price to be more than fair for such a memorable and comfortable experience. I would absolutely stay here again and recommend it to anyone visiting Cairo who wants a clean, safe, and welcoming place with unbeatable views of the pyramids!"
