Hilton Cairo Grand Nile

8/10 Good

"The hotel has 5 stars public facilities but the rooms are outdated and need serious refurbishment. The bathroom particularly was at 2 stars level. The service was very slow as well: ordering a sandwich can take 40 minutes... Plus side the location is fantastic: the revolving restaurant has probably the best view in Cairo."

Sama Hotel Sherif Bash

10/10 Excellent

"Omg what a find! This is a gem. It has an elevator! Big screen television. Huge bed. Very big room with an oversized bathroom. The best part is the breakfast with the best coffee and fresh eggs and potatoes and yogurt and two kinds of bread and juice and fresh fruit. Just amazing. The location is in the midst of everything with coffee shops around and a McDonald’s. Just everything you could possibly want with the nicest staff especially Mustafa the receptionist and Muhammad the guy who took our bags and led us to our room. They helped us bring our bags down. It’s like being in a five star hotel with 1 star price. If this place has rooms available don’t think twice! Book it! Also they have the best tours available with unbeatable prices. Just can’t say enough good about this hotel."

Sofitel Cairo Downtown Nile

10/10 Excellent

Everyone was incredibly welcoming, friendly, and professional, making me feel valued throughout my stay. Their exceptional service and genuine kindness made all the difference. I highly recommend this place...."

The Palace Pyramids inn

10/10 Excellent

"An absolutely outstanding experience from start to finish! The hotel exceeded all my expectations. The rooms were spotless, beautifully designed, and incredibly comfortable. Every staff member was welcoming, professional, and always ready to help with a smile. The facilities were excellent, the atmosphere was relaxing, and every detail made our stay feel special. The location was perfect, and the overall service was truly exceptional. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for luxury, comfort, and top-notch hospitality. I will definitely be coming back!"
