Can’t complain for the price
It is a good stay for the price. Location is very central and it’s noisy until 2-3am. Avoid the smallest room if you can, it’s very tiny. The staff try their best to accommodate you. On your first visit you may need to climb 6 floors since the lifts need a key fob. The breakfast is very good.

Good location
Conveniently located in the centre of downtown, it is easy to get anywhere. The Archaeological Museum is about 1.5 km away and can be reached on foot.
Breakfast is included and delivered to your room, but I had to wait an hour. I think it's a great service if you have time to spare.
The staff were friendly.

Great Budget Hotel in Downtown
This is a great budget hotel in downtown Cairo.
Staff is incredibly friendly. Best part of the hotel for sure.
It is on the 5th and 6th floor of a building so intially you need to climb some stairs. The elevator does work but you need a fob for it.
Rooms are nicely renovated too.
If you’re traveling solo or on a budget this is a great hotel.

Property excellent new renovated windows are sound proof very quite a d neat staff are perfect and helpful room service staff are great daily they are ready for room service Nariman a d I think Mohammad at reception are very cooperative the elevator is renewed and added new one. If I comeback to cairo I am sure I will stay in the same hotel near the hotel many shops and restaurants and easily you can find transportation......I fo recommend the hotel msnagement to control a pathway 1 meter wide between the street where the taxi drop you to the entrance of the hotel because it is very difficult to reach at night a d put large sign board at the entrance showing the name of the hotel

Breakfast was really bad service and at times reception staff can be rude didn’t meet my criteria instead they would just laugh as if it was some kind joke I had young kids and they put us on 2 different floors I specifically requested to have both rooms together and they didn’t take notice of my request.
They could have email me and said they don’t have 2 triple rooms on same floor then maybe I wouldn’t book this hotel. They just kept emailing me and saying yes will be done . False hope they gave me. Not very reliable receptionist and didn’t care about customer needs.

We had a great stay at Sama Hotel. The breakfasts were great, even though you have to eat in the room. The bedding, towels, etc are excellent. The staff is very friendly and helpful.
We had an issue with our room being a smoking room the first night, but they corrected the issue and were apologetic.
The area is fantastic and it's a very fun walk to Tahrir Square. Very central with a lot of activity around the hotel.
The elevator and stairs up to the 6th floor are old, sketchy and not taken care of, but 1) do not reflect the hotel and 2) are safe and do the job.
We're so glad we moved downtown from Giza to get a different picture of day to day Egyptian life. Sama Hotel is highly recommended.

I have been a guest at Sama’s multiple times and I always enjoyed it. However this time it was not a good experience. The day of booking they contacted me telling me that they messed up and that they can’t accommodate the two rooms I reserved weeks in advance. They told me I had to go to their “sister” hotel that is close by. They assured me that it is exactly the same in terms of cleanliness and level of service. Unfortunately that is not true. The furniture of the rooms were much older, the bathrooms were much smaller and the room didn’t even have a phone to talk to reception! This is very disappointing. I considered Sama to be my go to place when I come to Cairo but now I am reconsidering.

after reading positive reviews for travelling alone with accompanying young female I was disappointed in the fact the services provided was poor. After exhausting journey to reach the hotel with the help of kind iber driver we were met with a room not yet set up for guest. No towels no toiletries. After three to four call to reception each time giving me a time to deliver the requested items they didn’t deliver. This delayed in settling in for the evening and led to missing dinner as it was too late to pick up food. The dispointing to this was also the fact the manager of the hotel who booked us in yet he didn’t have the courtesy to acknowledge and apologise for the lack of seamless service. To add to it all we were given wrong set of keys to the room which meant we weren't’ able to lock our room for safety. Calling agin to resolve this took more time and consumed all our already burned out selves
