Top Sahara Desert Hotel Reviews
Steigenberger Resort Achti
8/10 Good
"The hotel was as expected, and the staff were consistently helpful. I was, however, disappointed by the very limited number of women on staff. I recognize that women are less represented in the workforce in Egypt, and having visited the country several times, was prepared for that disparity. Still, it can be uncomfortable as a female guest to have nearly every interaction be with men. I continue to hope that hotels—particularly those with international ownership and clientele—will give greater consideration to gender diversity among their staff."
Four Seasons Hotel Cairo at Nile Plaza
10/10 Excellent
"We absolutely loved this hotel, everything was perfection, one of the best hotels we stayed."
Nut Pyramids View
8/10 Good
"Great experience room ok staff great 🙌"
Le Méridien Cairo Airport

"Great stay very clean and right in the airport great location for a stopover"
Sonesta St George Hotel Luxor
10/10 Excellent
"Excellent Hotel! Very beautiful, with spacious rooms and view from balcony towards the Nile River. Staff was very kind and helpful, as well as having a great variety of restaurants. Overall great hotel."
Le Passage Cairo Hotel & Casino
10/10 Excellent
"Great Hotel!! Staff was very kind and helpful, rooms were spacious and comfortable for our stay. Restaurant available at hotel were also very good."
The Palace Pyramids inn
10/10 Excellent
"This beautiful boutique hotel is nestled at the foot of the Giza pyramid plateau providing a gorgeous view of the pyramids from the rooftop terrace as well as a room with the view. The charming and peaceful atmosphere coupled by the proprietor Mr.Ahmed and his staff provided a gracious and hospitable stay. They went above and beyond to provide unparalleled service making sure to really personalize my stay. This included a dance party on the morning of my birthday with the staff members on the terrace, afternoon conversations while viewing a gorgeous sunset, also rooftop ( the sofa was my favorite spot) In addition I met a business man from Dubai in the lobby who stays there every time he comes to Giza weather business or vacation. With many options in the city that’s quite the compliment. I recommend this little jewel of a hotel it’s a must stay while visiting Cairo."
Sofitel Cairo Nile El Gezirah
10/10 Excellent
"The room was good with great Nile views staff were friendly and great food variety Also quick room service the main problem is the lobby always full with guests 😂"
Giza Pyramids View Inn
8/10 Good
"The hotel is a small old hotel. Service from the Staff at the Main Desk is outstanding, however the property needs better maintenance. The view to the Pyramids from the Restaurant is extraordinary !!!"
