8.6/10 Excellent! (55 reviews)

Property was being renovated while we were there. Some noise from works during the night. Some parts looked very good but others didn't. Pool was not for swimming in, only for viewing. We weren't given the pool view room that we had booked. Housekeeping didn't change our bedding at all while we were there. Nile cruise organised for us by staff at the hotel was disappointing as we were kept waiting for ages and most of the food was gone by the time we were allowed onto the boat. On the plus side, it was very close to Giza pyramids.

9/10 Wonderful! (7 reviews)

Excellent value for the price! The property was clean and updated and within <10 minute walking distance to the entrance of Giza complex. The room and rooftop have perfect views of the pyramids and the Sphinx. Mohamed, the owner/host was welcoming, approachable and very responsive to questions and concerns. Breakfast was so worth it, tasty and generous. Laundy service was a huge plus! I booked most tours through the hotel. So much cheaper than the ones I found online. Even though the property is in Giza, it is still very accessible to all that Cairo/Greater Cairo has to offer.

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!
