Top Al-Azbakiyah Hotel Reviews

Le Méridien Cairo Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Super convenient for airport access"

Sama Hotel Sherif Bash

10/10 Excellent

"The entrance to the hotel needs is an old city jewel that needs improvements and daily maintenance. Once you are at the Sama hotel everything is great: the staff are all amazing people. The rooms are clean and the hot water and WiFi are reliable. We love the Egyptian breakfast, à la carte and plentiful! We will return before we leave Egypt, for sure! Please make sure you send yourself their location. There are many Sama hotel buildings and is not fun when the Crazy Diddy driver takes you to the wrong one even when you gave the right address."

Giza Pyramids View Inn

10/10 Excellent

"An unforgettable stay with breathtaking views! From our bedroom to the rooftop lounge, the pyramid views did not disappoint. The newly refreshed rooftop was beautifully furnished and such a wonderful place to unwind after full days of sightseeing. Breakfast was a highlight, with fresh eggs made to order, delicious coffee, Greek yogurt, different breads, sliced pound cakes, and individual portions of honey and jam. I especially enjoyed adding a little honey and raspberry jam to my yogurt. The staff were exceptionally kind, attentive and welcoming throughout our stay. Our room was comfortable, the bed was wonderfully made, and check-in was easy. We especially appreciated the rooftop bar and the convenience of being able to enjoy a drink in our room after long days exploring. Most importantly, the location was invaluable. We had two full days of sightseeing, including the pyramids, Sphinx, Grand Egyptian Museum, Memphis, Saqqara and Dahshur. Staying in Giza made those early morning departures so much easier, allowing us to beat the incredible Cairo traffic and experience these extraordinary places before the heat and crowds. Thank you to the entire team for your hospitality. We left with wonderful memories and would absolutely recommend Giza Pyramid View Inn!"
