Great view, good location, the entrance gate of the pyramids is 10 mins walking. I have been in several hotels during my round trip, and this was the ONLY Hotel, where they were honest, did not try to trick me or push me to buy anything, and they were kind, flexible and professional. And Hossam was very helpful on the last day as well, so next time when I return Cairo, 100% sure I will chose this hotel. My new friends stayed also in this hotel, and they also had the same very good experience here.

It's a really cost-effective hotel. You can see the pyramids and it's close to the Great Egyptian Museum (GEM). The staff were so kind and the hotel itself had an Egyptian feel, which was nice. The bedding was clean and the hot water came out well. It was so nice to see the pyramids in the window. We were very satisfied :)

Very good location and safe lifts. The entrance to the hotel is clean and welcoming. I came early and they gave us an early checking-in because of it. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The rooms were very clean and the beds were comfortable and big. The area was good and the rooms were sound-proof. Ac units worked well and wifi was also stable. The breakfast was very nice, and when we requested an omelette, extra bread and tea they provided us with them. Very safe location with lots of cheap food stores, coffee shops and restaurants.
