8.4/10 Very Good! (6 reviews)

The room was really nice but quite small. The bathroom was tiny, couldnt reach the pegs/towels at the top. It states daily house keeping but our room was not cleaned once, we had to ask for bottles of water, fresh towels and toilet paper which they did give straight away. The older man called Khaled in the restaurant was really nice and welcoming and looked after us. The tall receptionist was very friendly and gave us good suggestions. Another member of staff called Moustafa was very unwelcoming after we did not book any tours with him. He did not even speak to us after this and was quite rude- this was quite off putting staying in the hotel.

We had a really comfortable stay at Flower Pyramids Inn. The staff were really friendly and helpful. The view of the pyramids from the rooftop terrace was really nice. The breakfast included a nice variety of traditional options. The room itself that we stayed in was spacious and clean. Highly recommend if you are staying in Giza!

Watch out for scams on the street, when people seem overly helpful often they have a hidden agenda

Beware of hustlers. It is always a special day in Cairo where they government is giving you half off your purchases. Also, if someone says they want to give you their business card but they don't have any one them, don't go to their business "just around the corner" to get a card. They person you spoke to first will disappear and another one or two will take over showing you things and trying to sell you stuff. Free gifts are not free! Donations - "anything you can give" - means "pay me what I want." If someone hands you something, don't take it because they won't take it back and then they're asking for money. It's very hard, but you have to not speak. The Egyptians are so nice, but you have to beware of those you don't know. Someone is always looking for some money!
