Although in a busy area, the guest house is situated in a quiet back street. The rooms were very quiet & EXTREMELY comfortable.Very comfy bed with good mattress & fluffy duvet. Brilliant shower. In fact everything was just right. Great value for money. Will revisit as brilliant location too.
This hotel is very convenient for visiting the Sphinx and pyramids. It's comfortable and welcoming. It's a bit hard to find so it's wise to organise a pickup from the airport, which was straightforward. The restaurant food is basic, but tasty. Breakfast is on par with most other Egyptian hotels. Overall, very good value for money.
Highly recommended! Sun and Sand Hotel is comfortable and the staff are very friendly. The amenities are simple but nice and clean. The staff made good suggestions for tourist attractions. The area Giza is very close to the pyramids and there is an excellent view from the rooftop where the restaurant is. The chef is a true gentleman who makes amazing dishes!
Giza is by no means an opulent area - so be mindful of this, so that you are not put off by the surroundings. We felt well looked after throughout our stay and would definitely go to the Sun and Sands Hotel in Giza again.
The view of the pyramids from the rooftop dining area was breathtaking. The staff is hospitable, kind, and very helpful. The room was clean and well-kept. The neighbourhood in which the hotel is located is not for the faint of heart; there you might experience a culture shock like I did. Horse and buggy, camels, and tuktuks are prevalent modes of transportation in the neighbouring street, so you will inevitably step on a road apple or two if you take a walk down to the shops. I felt safe and comfortable inside the room at night, and the neighbourhood was really quiet at night.
Incredible service. Staff made themselves very available if you needed anything 24/7. Free breakfast everyday was very convenient and delicious. The view from the roof where breakfast is served is incredible and accessible 24/7. I got sick towards the end of the trip and was assisted by Yasser who was very helpful in getting me necessary medicine. The room I stayed in was very clean and modern and had all new furnishings. The only fault of the room was a lack of windows to provide daylight. The laundry service was great, my clothes were cleaned and pressed for very cheap. The security there is very good for anyone with concerns about this. I am so thankful for everyone at Sun and Sand for making my trip as incredible as they did.
The property is so cozy and cute. The roof has a very nice view of the pyramids. The staff are very friendly and helpful and are always smiling. This is all the good.
The opportunities for me which the property probably will not be able to do anything about is the smell of horse manure. Due to the prime location and presence of horses this is something I know is beyond their control but for me was a bit disturbing.
The other thing is because I chose a one bed - I had to stay at the first floor and it was quite noisy overnight. I wasn’t aware that 2 beds would probably better since they are in higher floors.
But I loved the room and the staff and would recommend to my friends.
Great Reception from the staff, owner was really nice and helpful, they had a New Year’s party on the roof top overlooking the pyramids, definitely would stay here again.
This hotel is spectacular, it has personalized service, they are very welcoming and always ready for whatever you need, we loved our experience at this hotel, and I also want to thank Mr Yasser, our Guide Arnaldo and everyone who made our stay incredible! I highly recommend the hotel, and we will definitely return to Cairo and the Sun and Sand guest house!
This was my first visit to Cairo. I’m very pleased that I chose to stay at Sun and Sand Guesthouse. Mr. Yasser was very attentive to every single one of my needs. There’s a beautiful view of the pyramids from the rooftop. You can enjoy breakfast while enjoying the view. The restaurant staff remembered my order and quickly had my breakfast ready each morning. I highly recommend booking tours through Mr. Yasser. Armando (tour guide contracted with the hotel) is very knowledgeable and takes his time with the tours. The room was very quiet and comfortable. Sun and Sand Guesthouse will be my choice of stat for my future visits to Cairo. As a bonus, you are very close to the pyramids and have the opportunity to observe the rich culture, included but not limited to: horse drawn buggies, camels, and donkeys.
