Abeer Hotel Alexandria is located directly on the Mediterranean sea of the old Greek harbor of Alexandria in one of the oldest neighborhoods of Downtown. Breakfast is served in the room part of the room service.

if you get a slightly upgraded room they’re pretty clean and great value for money. Good for overnight emergency/travel stays when you need to be downtown. staff are friendly. entrance is more scary than the hotel actually is-I only found out about it through a local I met otherwise I would’ve never tried. make sure to go to 7th floor when you reach the building bc that’s not obvious. At the low price don’t expect 4-5 star service…it’s a fresh bed and a toilet and smoker-friendly and not a hostel that you have to share.

The simply-furnished rooms at the Transit Alexandria Hostel are decorated in warm colours. They have satellite TV, a minibar and a private bathroom. Some rooms have air conditioning, while others have a fan.

Amazing location right in the centre and close to water. We had a sea view from our room. Staff were nice. Bed was best in Egypt a sheet then blanket. Simple but everything you need. For the price it was awesome.

    One of the best hostels I’ve ever stayed at. The staff is incredibly friendly. The villa includes a wonderful garden and swimming pool. It‘s so safe especially for women. I recommend it for anyone coming to Alexandria. I‘ve really enjoyed my time there

    Historical building with lots of charme and period furniture (just the lift to the floors is worth the stay) - Very friendly, helpful and professional staff - Excellent position and cheap safe parking - Good restaurant overlooking the bay with soft live music and high quality service. Wish I could have stayed longer,

    The internal decoration of the house is awesome. The location is very near to the beach and everything. Gleem bay is the hot spot in Alex. The food is everywhere, delicious and cheap. Traffic just under you but they has sound proof glass. There is small misunderstading earlier but Mr. Nabeel is very responsible person. He personally came to meet us to settle everything.

    1-Great location, there is a balcony with panoramic sea view for you to sit and drink what you like. 2-Haidar is a humble guy welcoming you from the begining to the end with a great smile. 3-Private room for you ,it's enough for a short stay with low budget . 4-most important there is a lift to take you to floor NR 5 ,which is the best thing in this place .

    There are private rooms and bathrooms in a great location and price. It's not luxurious. If you are a backpacker, you will be able to have a rest at a reasonable price.
