Lovely staff, wonderful stay

The staff at the hotel are kind, helpful and trustworthy. They speak wonderful English and will not try to take advantage of you or point you in the direction of anyone who plans on ripping off tourists. They constantly work to make you comfortable and I can not say any nicer words about these lovely people. This is a great place to be based to work from and see the city and you can fully trust those who run it.

Best Hospitality

This was the best hotel i have ever been to. The saff there treat you not like a client but like a friend. I actually hung out and had real conversations with the receptionist. They look out for you and make sure you have good time.. not just at the hotel but in Cairo as a whole.

Central location.

Such a great price, everything should be judged with that in mind. Airport pickup, good wifi and nice simple breakfast. The problem is traffic noise, it is best to plan for late starts and sleep after midnight. 5 minutes walk to McDonalds, KFC and Costa coffee. Staff very friendly, one speaks excellent English. Single room for a dormitory price, I'd definitely stay there again.

Good choice near Tahrir Square and Egyptian Museum

This is a good hostel type option. Staff are very friendly and helpful. About a 10 minute walk to Tahrir Square and the Egyptian Museum. Breakfast is basic but delicious - a falafel sandwich and a fuul sandwich, coffee/tea. Shower had only cold water the night I was there. Rooms have A/C. It is on the 4th floor of a building - there is access to an elevator, sometimes it worked other times it didn't. Hotel is open 24 hours, no lockout/curfew.

Best budget stay in cairo imaginable.

This was my first trip to cairo, and I decided on budget accommodations for my stay. I can't tell you how impressed I was with not just this hotel itself, but with the hospitality of the hotelstaff. They arranged a pick up from cairo international airport free of charge straight to the hotel. The facilities were very clean and had all the essential amenities including wifi. Free breakfast was included. The staff were extremely helpful in getting you oriented, telling you how to get around, and showing you how to interact locally. Someone was always availiable 24 hours to provide assistance which as a first time traveller I appreciated. The hotel is in the heart of cairo and it is located 2 steps away from everything! It was an easy walk to the major attractions in cairo which was really cool. If I ever come to egypt again, I would definitely stay here again.

Wi-Fiは弱かった。 風呂に荷物置きがなく、床が鬼汚いので便器の上に置くしかなかった。 トイレットペーパーはない時が多い。 枕が風船みたいで使えなかった。 ベットメイクお願いしたのにされなかった。 外が午後6時くらいから午前２時くらいまでクラクションとお経でうるさくてねれない。 部屋の全ての物が程よくボロかった。

Leider eine große Enttäuschung...

Dieses "Hotel" ist leider völlig durch, die Fotos stimmen leider in keinster Weise mit dem Original überein. Ich denke das dort seit 2012 nichts mehr passiert oder renoviert worden ist. Die Zimmer und die Betten sind grenzwertig und fertig. Die Sauberkeit ebenfalls grenzwertig. Das / die Bäder sind völlig runter. Farbe blättert von der Denke und den Wänden. Es gibt lediglich eine Toilette und eine Brause darüber. Die Klimaanlagen sind alle defekt oder nicht mehr vorhanden. Es hängen überall Kabel rum. Überall stehen defekte Dinge in den Räumen oder liegen in den Ecken. Sorry, aber das einzig gute dieser Anlage, ist die Lage. Alles andere reicht maximal für eine Notfallübernachtung. Selbst dann, würde ich einen eigenen Schlafsack empfehlen und unbedingt Handtücher und Badeschuhe bzw. Desinfektionsmittel. Das Frühstück besteht aus einer Tasse Tee und einem Baguette und einem Ei - das zum Thema "Kontinentales Großes Frühstück". War sicher mal gut, aber leider im Moment in keiner Weise zu empfehlen.

Convenient location in Downtown Cairo

Friendly staff who go the extra mile to help, even sent a taxi to pick me up from the airport at no extra charge. Hotel is located on the 4th floor from which you need to take a vintage caged lift which looks a bit dangerous at first but is a joy to ride in nevertheless! Rooms are generally clean and staff will ask whether you need cleaning/laundry services regularly. Wifi is excellent. Hotel is strategically located in downtown Cairo and is a stone's throw from McDonalds, Costa Coffee, other conveniences and a 10 minute walk to the Egyptian Museum. However traffic sounds from the street can get annoying at times. Downtown Cairo can be a bit confusing to walk around so do ask the staff for a map or advice. A good hostel for travellers looking for a no-frills place to stay in at a reasonable price.

prima bed and breakfast hotel

Precies waar het voor bedoeld is. Bed and breakfast. Zijn begonnen met het renoveren van de kamers. Wat fijn is. Hotel met super vriendelijk en behulpzaam personeel. Ze kunnen van alles voor je regelen aan excursies, restaurant reserveringen, taxi etc. Ik kom altijd graag terug.
