The hotel is located directly on the opposite side of the pyramids, the hotel itself is small and has 3 floors and a roof. There is a restaurant on the roof. Great view of the pyramids.In the evenings, at 19:30, the evening show begins on the pyramids, it is very clearly visible and audible from the roof. There are rooms with a view of the pyramids and rooms without windows, standard rooms are windowless. Therefore, in the morning it is completely dark in the room. the room has air conditioning, TV, kettle, refrigerator, tea, sugar, bottles of water every day. Towels, shampoos. The bed linen is white and clean. The staff is very friendly. On the day of arrival, drinks are served free of charge on the roof. Breakfast is also included in the price. the impression is spoiled by a terrible smell on the street where horses and camels walk and shit right on the asphalt. With shoes, shit is brought into the hotel and even the pungent smell of fragrances cannot interrupt its smell. The smell is felt even on the roof.
Pros: really great view of the pyramids, kind hosts.
minuses: When booking, I indicated that I want a view of the pyramids, but of course I was settled in a room without a window. You see this horror, you run to the reception, they tell you to pay extra $ 20 and there will be a view. I paid extra, although I lived in the room for half a day, they could have given me a bonus, the room is still free and two small children.
The main disadvantage is the terrible dirt in the room, very old nasty dirty laundry, you won't see this even in a roadside motel on the M4 highway. She asked to change it, they changed it to even dirtier, in pellets with black hair and smelly. Even children who don't bother have noticed: "Mom's underwear stinks!!" We decided to sleep in our clothes so as not to get wet after a shower."
The toilet is broken and generally an unpleasant place.
The location right next to the pyramids is both a plus and a minus. Plus, because there is a stunning view from the roof, breakfast/lunch/dinner with this view is a pleasure. Also in the evening, you can watch and listen to the evening show from the roof. Minus - because all the delights of a highly touristic place in Egypt are waiting for you outside the door: crowds of Bedouins, street vendors, camels, horses, and the corresponding smell. I didn't like the room - no window, very poor sound insulation. Breakfast is normal, it takes place on the roof of the hotel. You can also have lunch and dinner there - the cafe has excellent cuisine and reasonable prices
Stunning view from the highway where breakfast takes place. The breakfast itself is excellent. For me, the priority is the freshly squeezed juice that is included.
Excellent service. They help, give gifts.
The room is simple, but everything you need is available.
On occasion, I will stay there again!
We arrived in 2 pairs, booked 2 rooms for 2 nights. As a result, there were no rooms available, they settled us 4 for 1 night in a 6-bed room. The faucet in the sink in the bathroom lived anywhere but at the bottom, there was no warm water (the boiler does not work), they said "1 moment" when asked to fix it and did not come anymore. It was 2 nights after the flight, we went to bed from the road without washing.
We decided to have dinner at the hotel as we arrived late. We ordered spaghetti. We waited 1 hour for the spaghetti to arrive. As a result, the food turned out to be delivered from some restaurant, everything was served in a passageway in which the food was delivered (not in torches) so they also gave plastic devices. It wasn't delicious. I finished it only because I really wanted to eat after the flight from Russia and the flight delay. As a result, it turned out that this food costs 3 times cheaper in the restaurant.
On the second night, they were moved to 2 different rooms. Better rooms.
The breakfasts were for 4 people. They were included in the price.
The verdict. I will choose another hotel on my next visit to Cairo.
Very sincere and good. Great view of the pyramids and a good breakfast. The staff is above praise, they helped everywhere, starting from buying tickets and small requests.
A room with a balcony.
You can watch a light show from your room for free. You can admire the pyramids lying on the bed. That's where the advantages end.
The room is very small, the bathroom is tiny, the furniture is old. Breakfast for an amateur. No one has been cleaning either the room or the terrace for a long time...
To go only for the sake of the view.
The high tourist tax is almost 30% of the room rate.
They asked for an extra bed, but they didn't put it there. There is a maximum double bed in the room.
They paid for a room with a view of the pyramids, as a result, the room was given without a window at all. Breakfast is cold.
Among the advantages : clean rooms, new furniture, convenient location, late check-in
the view is incomparable, all the pyramids are visible from the bed... the hotel is very, very simple. although it is getting old, a lot of cold drinking water is free.
Very dirty room. It seems that the staff absolutely does not care about this, because people do not come here for this and they know it perfectly well.
Of course, the view from the window compensated for everything....and breakfast, by the way, also pleased me.
