Picture on site is NOT hotel but great staff
The picture on Hotels.com of the hotel actually shows the Old Egyptian Museum which is around the corner, so we were very surprised when our Uber dropped us off in front of a nondescript building. But the staff was incredibly friendly and the room was clean and comfortable. We spent our time exploring Cairo and its amazing sites and monuments so didn’t need a fancy hotel. The location was outstanding and for the price we can’t complain. The balcony was spectacular!

The place was well located in downtown Cairo. The room was spacious and clean and we liked the big terrace. However the whole building was being given a make over and often the lift did not work . The staff were very helpful, especially Shady,

Beautiful nuba themed hotel on the 8th and 9th floor of an old building right on Tahrir Square. Impeccably clean and spacious rooms. Sparkling bathroom. Great staff especially Ms. Rabab at the reception and very affordable. An absolutely great stay.

This place is conveniently located just across the street from the Egyptian museum and within walking distance of a bunch of restaurants and shops. The staff was kind and accommodating and I found the property easy to locate despite what some other reviews have said. There is signage outside the building and the property address comes up on Google maps and Uber. Also comfortable rooms.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this hotel. The room was spacious, very clean and new. Don’t be fooled by the entrance downstairs of the building the hotel on the top floor is excellent. The position was very good, just a few minutes walk to the Egyptian museum. The area around the hotel also seemed to be one of the safest in Cairo.

Right across the street from the Egyptian Museum. Room was very nice. The only negative is the access as there is no sign outside....our taxi driver didn't want to let us out there, but luckily he asked a man on the street who pointed out the entrance

It is difficult to find the entrance to the hotel from the address alone, you should add a picture. Rooms are comfortable with plenty of space and good wifi.

This hotel surprised us. Just like others reviews say the building looks weird when you get in as there is some construction but the two hotel levels are super new and clean. The room was really comfortable and surprisingly quiet for being such a central Cairo location. The area was really comfortable to move around and visit the main areas, even walking if you fancy it. And the staff were really kind. The one surprise is that the restaurant didn’t seem to be open but I highly recommend this hotel, really worth it!

The staff was friendly enough.The two biggest disappointments were the area where it is located and more so the fact the elevator was often broken

Nice place
Very welcoming and helpful hosts, they went out of their way to accommodate our needs. Good english. Good location. Nice room. Not very well equipped, and shower dirty. But compared to the rest of Egypt it was overall a lovely room. Floor 8 in the elevator.
