Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Beautiful property, great spa, gym and swimming pool. Rooms need some update but comfortable and those facing the river have an incredible view. Multiple restaurants and coffee shops but service can sometimes be slow in some. Security is tight. Front desk and concierge et front door staff were helpful. Check-in and check-out were fast and accurate. Unfortunately the area around have few attractions except the Egyptian museum which is moving out. There are abandoned homes around despite some embassies and the parliament is close nearby. Downtown is nearby but looks run down and dirty. There is also a confusing metro station close. The hotel however is a gem and prices are fair for what it offers.

Good option in Cairo

Hotel was one of the nicer ones in the city. Convenient for tour pick ups and such. Metal detectors to enter this and other hotels make it a little uncomfortable as a tourist. There is smoking allowed in the main areas of the hotel as well as designated smoking floors. The hotel as a whole had a feel of lingering smoke smell.

This hotel is in a very unique location along the Nile, close to some museums and central. But the area it resides within is very old and nearly impossible to navigate on foot with the traffic patterns. It seems the group of larger hotels along the river to the north would be better suited for getting out and exploring, but still, Intercontinental Semiramis has an outstanding breakfast, a lot of restaurant choices, a really nice pool, and well-trained and friendly staff. I would definitely recommend this hotel!
