This was a beautiful hotel with a nice view of the Nile. I did find the rooms a bit outdated considering the price point and since the hotel lobby and poolside looked so modern, but the rooms were still very clean. It was a convenient location and the check in staff were very friendly. Would recommend staying here if you’re looking to be close to the Nile and central Cairo.

Comfortable hotel with spacious rooms. Overall fairly clean and new, lovely amenities. Housekeeping were helpful and accommodating. Our room keycard holder had stopped working and staff promptly arranged for an engineer to fix the issue. Breakfast options were good however slightly expensive for what it was.

We stayed at the Sofitel Cairo Downtown with my wife and teen daughter for three nights before heading to Giza. Our Prestige Suite had two balconies and a separate bedroom. Staff was professional and attentive throughout. I highly recommend the Millesime Club option, which provides excellent complementary breakfast and afternoon tea. All in all, an excellent stay in Cairo.

Being from the US - it took me a minute to get used to the smoking indoors in the lobby. Other than that, the staff made this hotel EXCEPTIONAL! Very attentive, kind and supportive throughout the duration of my stay. They brought little gifts and amenities to make everything feel very comfortable - DAILY! I can’t say enough - the genuine hospitality was wonderful.

Great hotel Very safe & clean hotel Staff are very helpful Hotel has a full TSA search to enter so be mindful what you have in your suitcase Only bad part of hotel is every thing is expensive in hotel Food n drink prices are higher inside hotel Taxi price thru the hotel are ridiculously expensive For example: they were trying to charge us $80 for a ride to airport n when I book with Uber it's only $10 Best thing to do is to have an Uber app because all rides are $10 or less Do not rent a car out there you will regret it

We had a very good stay at the Sofitel. The pool area was very nice and the lobby is beautiful. Only drawback is the smoke in the lobby. Makes it harder to enjoy. Room was a bit small as well but ok. Staff were helpful. The other Sofitel in Cairo is at a better location though so I would stay there next time.
