Top Cairo Hotel Reviews

The Palace Pyramids inn

The Palace Pyramids inn

8/10 Good
"Lovely staff that could not have been more helpful. Do not be put off by the area the hotel is in or first appearances, there are a lot of stairs and no lift but the view from the roof bar/restaurant is stunning and needs to be seen at sunset. I was travelling solo and felt very safe in the hotel, the room was cleaned daily and no request was too much trouble. The beds were very comfortable and the showers rooms were very clean and warm. For the amount I paid per night I could not fault it."
