9/10 Wonderful! (37 reviews)
I love the fact that I could see the pyramids from the the top floor where they serve free breakfast. The room was cold, but I guess it was because I came in March. So everything was great except for one staff member who was very nasty to me because I couldn’t understand her accent so I stayed far from her.

Our stay was absolutely amazing and truly unforgettable! One of the biggest highlights was the incredible view of the Pyramids and the Sphinx directly from our room. Waking up and being able to look out at such an iconic view was breathtaking and made our trip to Egypt even more special. The food was delicious and fresh, and we really enjoyed everything we tried. The customer service was also exceptional. Everyone was welcoming, attentive, and went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and enjoying our stay. A very special thank you to Sarah, who made our entire trip so much easier and stress free. She helped plan our itinerary for the whole trip and arranged our drivers and tour guides, so we were able to experience Egypt without having to worry about all the details. Everything was organized so well, and having that level of assistance made a huge difference. Between the spectacular Pyramid and Sphinx views, delicious food, excellent service, and the help we received planning our activities, we couldn't have asked for a better experience. I would absolutely recommend this property to anyone visiting Egypt, especially if you want an unforgettable view and wonderful hospitality. We would definitely stay here again! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I couldn’t have asked for a better first trip to Cairo. Right from the start, the staff made check in super easy, and setting up the airport ride took all the stress out of arriving. Saif and Abdul were amazing throughout my stay. They were so kind and attentive, always checking in and generously offering drinks and food. The Honeymoon Suite was spotless, the Wi-Fi was fast, and the hot water in both the shower and Jacuzzi was great. Plus, waking up to those direct pyramid views was incredible. The breakfast spread was delicious every morning, and they were always super flexible and quick so I could hit the ground running with my daily tours. I’d easily stay here again again.
