Great location service and room a very clean and manager a superstar helpfully it’s incredible
Wonderful quaint place to stay in Downtown Cairo with helpful staff & all requirements you needed.
Shops & markets & restaurants within walking distance and lots of choices. Breakfast was fabulous. Would highly recommend a stay if in Cairo.
Front desk staff were very courteous and helpful when I needed information. The location is great if you want to be right in the middle of bustling Cairo. By day and night a walk has a lot to see and take in. Overall I liked the room as it was in an old building and had a nostalgic feel. I would recommend this location for adventure seeking travelers.
I would highly reccomend this hotel. The staff are lovely and very help, the rooms clean and comfortable. The breakfast was fantastic. The location very central. For the price of this hotel it is superb value.
I stayed there on two occasions.
Great location, good price and friendly staff. Especially Mahmoud was great!
I would definitely stay there again.

Great location
I like that this location is perfect. The WiFi stopped working after our first nights stay, but other than that the room was comfortable and clean. Room also need an iron and hairdryer. The main entrance/ lobby can also use a facelift, but great staff and great location.

Pro: Breakfast was delicious! Twin bed room was a good size and had a big opening window.
Con: The entrance to the building can feel a little sketchy the first time as the hotel is on the upper floors of a mostly-empty building. But it is safe, we felt comfortable coming and going day and night, and the hotel’s space is bright and welcoming.
Hotel was clean and smelled of fresh paint. Room was small but modern and in a Great location on Tallet harb st. It’s a big shopping street just a 5 minute walk from tahir square with lots of clothes, shoes, perfume shops etc that stay open until 3am. Very lively but there was no noise inside the hotel. The only thing I didn’t like about the hotel was the lift. I felt like I was gambling with my life every time I used it but there are stairs if this is a problem for you. Honestly can’t find anything bad to say about the hotel at all. Would defo recommend it

The hotel is located on a busy street with lots of places buy clothing. Just a few short minutes away are restaurant. Although there are lots of cars and honking, the hotel rooms are relatively quiet.
The only downsides experienced was there is no maid service everyday, so I had to ask for new towels each day. Also, the wall AC was going in and out.
These guys are great, I’ve expected to find some or a lot of differences between the pictures and realty, however they’re better than the pictures, the property and rooms are very clean, and they have a very friendly atmosphere and great staff.
The Golden Palace hotel is 'golden bargain' as it's very reasonably priced and right in the center of a busy area with lots to do, but yet feels like an oasis of tranquility 😇
The staff are very friendly and helpful and even let me store a bag for a month for a modest fee.
The large breakfast, served by the lovely Hebbe, is an added bonus as it's included in the price.
The rooms are spacious and clean, although I think the comforter/Duvet in the room I had could do with a laundry as it had a noticeably unpleasant odor.
Also, I was woken during the night by a door slamming in a neighboring room and I think this may be due to mechanical issue that needs to be addressed.
I even got a free room upgrade on check in! 😀
Overall I can highly recommend this hotel in downtown Cairo ☺️
Amazing people, mr. Hani, Mahmoud and Hiba Are quite helpful and always smiling.
Will visit the place one day again in the future.
Highly Recommend if you like noisy cairo!
The hotel is in a commercial normal building where they have certain rooms on levels 4 and 6, the restaurant is on floor 6, open 24/7, but food is only from 08-11 for breakfast. Very small rooms, however it was clean, so no worries.

No luck and some strange behaviour from staff. The water kept failling the first of our two day stay. The window wasn't closing properly so no way to avoid the morning prayer wake up. Anyway we got it at 5 am in the stair hall the same night staff children around 14 yo were watching videos and laighing at our door step at 3 am. Bed are comfortablr, room are clean. It s an average for cairo i would say.

This hotel is an absolute bargain for the price; don't expect anything fancy - it is suited more for backpackers and those on a tight budget. It is located in the heart of Cairo and is extremely convenient; if you are looking for somewhere quiet to stay then this is not the place as it is located on the main high street.
The hotel is located on the 4th and 6th floor of an old apartment block. The apartment block is very old and could do with a revamp. The lobby area of the hotel is on the 4th floor and some rooms are also located here; the lobby is very dark and needs better lighting.
We stayed on the 6th floor which was much newer and had a nice kitchen area. The rooms are very big with high ceilings and they are clean.
The most frustrating thing about the hotel were the en-suite bathrooms. Water was unpredictable and sometimes did not work which was very annoying.
Staff were extremely friendly, had a smile and were always willing to help - you can't go wrong with the price...
