Top Gezira Hotel Reviews

Cairo Marriott Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This was an extraordinary hotel in Cairo! The history of the palace along with all the rooms to explore made it an unforgettable place to stay. The staff were attentive and nice. Would recommend for anyone visiting Cairo."

Steigenberger Hotel El Tahrir Cairo

10/10 Excellent

"A very clean and comfortable and modern hotel. The breakfast was excellent and good choices. Staff are always smiling and helpful and they do a thorough job of cleaning the rooms inside out. We chose the airport hotel taxi, which was very prompt and patient even though our flight was delayed. The location is very close to one of the museums and lots of shops and restaurants around."

Marriott Mena House Cairo

10/10 Excellent

"It’s a wonderful place to stay for any reason, food is delicious! Room, interior and exterior are always very clean. The view of the pyramids from the restaurant is amazing!! The entertainment! Everything is first class. But the most wonderful thing about it, is the staff, always on top of your needs, very nice and attentive. I was sick for a few days and the called to check on me, sent me soup, tea…. I just love the place. You will not regret it. Gooooo…."

Le Passage Cairo Hotel & Casino

10/10 Excellent

"Nice staff"

The Nile Ritz-Carlton, Cairo

10/10 Excellent

"What one would expect from a 5 star hotel - spacious rooms, attentive staff, excellent food and restaurant choices. Enjoyed the breakfast as there were a variety of food choices. While we did not face the Nile or street view, we faced toward the museum. The sound from outside below (wedding and entertainment patio) carried to the 11th floor so if you are not a sound sleeper, suggest bringing ear plugs or don’t go to bed before 10 pm!"

The Palace Pyramids inn

8/10 Good

"This was a great place to stay. Location is not great but the staff and the rooms were awesome. Great little breakfast area with view of the Pyramids. Good security and we're super helpful. 1st floor with rooms was 3 flights up and that was the only negative of this place."

Sofitel Cairo Downtown Nile

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel - just as well as Cairo was a big disappointment! We booked the opera suite which was exceptionally good value. The club room was fantastic for evening drinks/nibbles and for breakfast. The staff at the hotel were fantastic - from checking in to the staff at the clubroom. Would recommend"

Panorama Pyramids Inn

8/10 Good

"One of the good thing in this hotel is you will never get hungry. Free snacks and beverages are always served most of the time. Although the room is not so perfect, 'coz we're not lucky to reserve a room facing the pyramids, but you can always see the panoramic view at the roof top terrace anytime. And with regards to staff's customer service, the only word I can say is "bravo""

Sofitel Cairo Nile El Gezirah

8/10 Good

"The hotel is in the perfect location in the middle of the Nile. However be forewarned, it is very, very noisy. The music from river boats blares until 3:00 or 4:00 in the morning. The pounding music from the disco goes on all night! The hotel seems to cater to a youngish, hip party crowd."
