"Great stay at Philo - very reasonable cost, extremely helpful staff (Mr. Filip, the owner, made sure to accommodate additional requests and arranged for tours in Cairo and Alexandria). Excellent and convenient location, 10 min walk from Tahrir Square and Egyptian Museum."
"The staff were all very friendly and accommodating. They prepared us a packed breakfast when we had an early start around 5 am. The hotel is located in a busy but convenient area with many food choices. The pickup from the airport went without a hassle. We had a good stay."
"I remember the bed being super plush and comfortable. Easy location and no issues. Did not stay the night as we needed to get to the airport but the room was nice and would stay there again."
"Our flight to Cairo arrived at 6am and we got to the hotel at around 8am hoping to at least leave our luggage until we could check in, but the hotel staff was able to check us in earlier which was very much appreciated.
The rooms were well designed and seemed newly renovated, our room had a jacuzzi also. There was a little smell in the bathroom which would go away but then come back, but in general it was a nice room. The staff was helpful and welcoming, and breakfast was a lot of food!
I would...

Steigenberger Hotel El Tahrir Cairo
10/10 Excellent
"Absolutely amazing hotel! From the moment we arrived, everything was perfect. I want to give a special shout-out to Mohamad at the reception bar — I had an issue with my suitcase not opening, and as soon as I mentioned it, he immediately asked me to bring it over. He managed to open it right away and even offered me a lock from his own pocket. Such kindness and helpfulness are truly rare!
The hotel is extremely safe, spotlessly clean, and the food is delicious. Don’t miss the breakfast — it’s one of the best I’ve ever had!
Highly recommended in every way. I would definitely come back!"
