I have nothing but good things to say. Very good location. Very safe. Amazing staff. The pool and the view are absolutely stunning. The food was so good.
The rooms were clean but a little dated. The rest of the hotel is wonderful, particularly the complimentary breakfast. The staff are excellent as well. Highly professional. The location cannot be beaten. It’s just wonderful to sit with a drink or have breakfast next to the glittering Nile.

The people were lovely. Very personal and caring. The food was delicious. The service outstanding. The views breathtaking.
Room was exceptionally clean, the staff was friendly, and they brought us whatever we needed. We even needed a doctor during our stay and they have one on site who came to our room and also provided the prescriptions he wrote instead of us having to go to the pharmacy. And even on top of that, when we did end up needing the pharmacy, the hotel coordinated deliver that came within 30mins. Amazing. We also had a special anniversary dinner that the hotel Egyptian restaurant went all out to make such a special event with a peivate gazebo on the Nile, complete with flowers, candles, a heater for the chilly night, and a special anniversary cake that was delicious. We had such a great time. I would highly recommend. Very personal service. We were. Treated as VIPs the whole time!!
we had a room with partial nile view on the 14th floor which fully matched the description upon booking. The service in the hotel was excellent, the cleanliness of the room, too. The room comprises a Nespresso coffee machine and a small fridge. The balcony is closed for security reasons, but was openened by the staff immediately upon request. A great variety of food is offered for breakfast, with tables also outside. The Outdoor Pool has a great view. The hotel is close to a metro station ("Opera") which allows reaching coptic Kairo as well as islamic Kairo and some other areas by metro easily. Organizing a Taxi or UBER worked out fine, too.
Very, very good hotel, with many restaurants to choose from on the property. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I would return to this hotel in the future.
The staff was very attentive and welcoming. The location is hard to beat and the view of the Nile was excellent. The breakfast buffet was very good and well assorted.
Beautiful hotel, probably the best in Cairo. Staff was lovely and the amenities were fantastic. The restaurant Kebabgy was the best place we ate in Cairo.
