Top Al-Azhar Mosque Hotel Reviews

Sama Hotel Sherif Bash

10/10 Excellent

"From check in to check out Sama hotel sherif bash was awesome. Staff arranged for an airport pickup and helped with our luggage up to our rooms. They were clean and had enough space for our belongings. The bathrooms were clean and the shower got hot. The staff continually checked in on our needs and offered various amenities. I could not recommend this hotel enough. I felt safe and comfortable for my entire stay. They also offered free breakfast but unfortunately we were not around for it."
