10/10 Exceptional

Great place!
When our taxi driver couldn't find the exact location of the hotel two of the front service staff were already looking for us on the street. The whole time we were there we received amazing customer service! Breakfast was the best we had in Egypt. Great location, can be a bit noisy at night but that's normal for Cairo.

Mohamed, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Fine once you’re inside
This place certainly doesn’t have much ‘curb appeal’ and you have to fight through a fast food restaurant to get to the hotel door, but the room was clean and spacious and service is great.
JONATHAN, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

I love the staff the best. The were all smiling and pleasant and willing to do whatever we needed to make our stay pleasant. It is within walking distance to shopping and food. I would recommend this place if you are on a low budget.

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.

Cairo December 2024
This place will fool you from the outside. The area in general is historic. The rooms are clean and pretty updated. Very nice people. The price is affordable I liked it overall.

10/10 Exceptional

Spotlessly clean room, good price, super friendly and helpful staff — way beyond the usual, ride provided to airport immediately on request at reasonable price and with reassuring reminders, excellent lift/lelevator, great location near Midan Tala’at Harb and its bookstores, including the new Diwan bookstore— all in all, the only place in Cairo I will ever stay! Thank you, Sama Hotel!

Thumbs up👍
It’s nice place in the middle of everything, very convenient to do shopping many restaurants and cafes,the only thing could be disturbing if you are an early sleeper it is a bit noisy at nigh and the door to the balcony doesn’t have good insulation. Some suggestions: It will be great if they have a hairdryer and extra roll of toilet paper inside the room and they definitely need a sign for the the guests to guide them where they can reach the reception When entering the building there is no sign that the hotel is on the sixth floor, you will be wondering how to find the hotel where.
Malalay, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

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.
Norman, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This is a nice affordable hotel located in the heart of downtown, close to Tahrir Square. While the exterior of the hotel appears old and worn, the rooms are newly furnished and quite appealing. The rooms themselves are spacious, clean, and comfortable. Breakfast is served each morning, featuring delicious Egyptian cuisine. The hotel is conveniently located, with easy access to the city, and the Egyptian Museum is just a short walk away. The staff, especially Ali and Karim, were excellent and extremely helpful. However, I recommend not booking any tours through the hotel, as they are overpriced and the guides seem rushed. For a better experience, consider booking through platforms like Viator or Expedia. I do not want to reduce any stars for this as it is optional and I just took a tour from them.
Viswesh, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

Honest review. Booked the deluxe double room months in advance but after a long flight and drive from the airport I arrived to the hotel to be told (in a very blasé manner) that our room had been given to someone else. This was very confusing as we were in contact with the hotel regarding the flight and transfer giving constant updates and even getting a excursion brochure through WhatsApp. So we arrive Sultan the receptionist, then said
