Booked via booking once we arrived they requested a marriage certificate due to my wife being a Palestinian. They refused to host us. Even though we have been to hurgada and dahab and sharm el shaik using a copy of the certificate. Do not recommend this hotel to anyone due to the service given.

Bad service

Very old hotel in not a nice area to walk around and far from the city center.
Wifi does not work in the rooms neither in the lobby.
Looks a bit abandon as almost no guests.
It is close (by car) from the pyramids but in a busy street. 
It was not our choice of hotel but included in the tour we booked.

Not recommended

Lovely reception specially Nansy and Mohamed,clean rooms, beautiful breakfast,professional staff,great rate for single room, quick respond for any request but please choose your room above the 4 floor to avoid cars noises.

Great visit

As I lay here awake well past 10pm, the incredibly loud DJ music from some nearby club or music enthusiast (not sure which) is blaring at a volume to rival the lollapalooza center stage. This is our third night at this hotel and the third in a row with noise that is so crisp, loud and clear I have questioned if it’s coming from my room television (it’s not). This is of course only outdone by the (not even kidding) two ROOSTERS that begin their crowing right outside our window at 0400am. That’s the ambiance sorted, now onto the rest. The rooms are worn and dated but mostly clean. The bright spot is the breakfast. The downstairs restaurant is the one spot in the hotel that appears to have been updated recently. The food is good, but not exceptional.

The area is not good for walking and taxis are no where to be found in the suicidal death dance that is Cairo’s uncontrolled traffic (seriously guys, how about a stop light or two?!?) And the hotel will only set up ‘tours’ for you at what I considered a high cost (USD 50) for only transport to/from destinations like the main museum. They also set up legit tours, but if you only need transport (which you will need) you will spend a fortune here just to get back and forth to dinner. 

Finally, the staff are professional but clearly trained to push tours on the guests. This is what we expected and thus was fine with us. The service staff are all uniformed and attentive, but seemed a little out of place in this sort of hotel. Ultimately, it feels a bit like a Fawlty Towers episode if it were filmed in the overcrowded, trash strewn, feral dog and cat infested streets of Cairo. But if you are coming to Cairo, virtually all the hotels are in those streets, so you can’t blame the hotel for the landfill outside. 

Not sure where the 3 star rating came from, but it’s more aptly a 2.5. If you want a one day two night stop over for ONLY the pyramids, this is a suitable and inexpensive location. If you want more? Well, not sure what to tell you. Good luck!!!

Very Loud Room - DJs and Roosters

This hotel was very dirty the first room I was in smelled so bad me and my daughter later towels down to sleep on the bed . The bathroom was nasty the windows dirty dust and dirt all over just was not a good experience. And it is located in the slums.

Disgusting hotel

The staff are very friendly and helpful here. The security ensured we were safe each time we left with our tour company. 

The driver for the hotel wasn’t around so we used our tour company to organise a taxi one day. It can be difficult to get around the city so having a driver with a good reputation helps. 

The rooftop restaurant is closed- just a warning! The highest we went for floor 4. 

The rooms were a decent size and had TVs. They were cold but the air con soon heated the room up!
