"An old building but well modernised. A nice selection of bars and restaurants, charming staff and a great breakfast"

"STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE The elevator did not work We stayed for 4 nights and they don’t come to change the room. At the end, they will change you for anything. The blanket had. Stain before and they wanted to charge me the whole blaket, a towel and and pillow case .. we ended paying $30US extra for nothing. This is in downtown a lot of noise"

"We had a wonderful 3nites stay at the end of April 2026. The staff were attentive and kind. The location is excellent, in front of quiet alley with several cafes. The hotel entrance may be a bit off putting, but once you walk up one flight of stairs, Sama Hotel Sherif Basha lobby awaits you behind glass doors. Newly renovated one floor hotel. Be sure to select rooms with windows on the alley side or main street side. The windows are well insulated from noise. The location is only blocks from the other Sama hotel that is in the square, which is much more noisy. So many restaurants, shops and cafes to choose right in the neighborhood. Access to Egyptian museum and the Nile river is faster on foot than Uber, due to high traffic congestion. With that said, Uber is great since it is abundant and very very affordable. We love this location and the hotel is EXCELLENT. Breakfast is limited but fresh and basic. So many eateries around that we save our tummy for the street food. Can't wait to return to Cairo. Thank you for your hospitality. Tran/Hanala"

"The hotel is rated the best in the city and earns that distinction. Staff are very responsive and attentive to the guest needs. I had a very good stay."

"Great huge hotel with loads of history. Beautiful gardens & Nile view ADR Ahlan & others were superior on check in & the palace tour respectively * Exec lounge was great. And a late check out was much appreciated Thx team "

"Ms Rosita and Mr Eid made my stay at the Ramses excellent with their attention to detail as well as their kind and caring manner. I especially appreciate being asked if I wanted to upgrade to a Nile River view. ❤️ Fabulous! Every night and every morning I woke up to look at the Nile- what a pleasure that was! I also loved how easy scheduling activities were and the punctuality of the personal drivers and guides in picking me up to go to outings like Giza. "

"No idea about breakfast but the AC working properly and room is clean and stuff always there for you "

"The hotel was so clean and tidy. I enjoyed every minute of my stay. It is in central location. The staff was so friendly, helpful with great smile on everyone faces. I felt home and welcomed all the time. I will stay in it during my next visit to Egypt. I recommend it to all my friends."

"Excellent staff from arriving through the front being greeted by the friendly door staff, professional front desk to staff in the restaurants and housekeeping. Breakfast in Culina was spot on with a buffet offering a great variety. The bars have a great range of drinks both alcoholic and non. The rooms are spacious clean, they get serviced twice a day, and are left immaculate by the housekeeping. Location is good with a museum at the back of the hotel. Also a 10 minute walk to downtown shops. I will recommend this hotel to all travellers to Cairo. I would stay there again "
