Lotus Inn has a shared lounge, terrace, a restaurant and bar in Cairo. Located around 800 metres from Giza Pyramids, the inn with free WiFi is also 2.6 km away from Great Sphinx. The accommodation offers room service, an ATM and currency exchange for guests.

Everything is perfect Structure that directly overlooks the pyramids. Great room overlooking the pyramids. Very comfortable bed. Breakfast on the terrace with a view of the pyramids. But the real strength of the facility is host ALI with the staff. They helped us in all our needs and to organize excursions to the pyramids, Cairo and the desert. I highly recommend staying at this property.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Piccolo Mondo Boutique Hotel, and I must say, it was an absolutely perfect experience. From the moment I arrived, I was impressed by the cleanliness and luxury of the room. The staff were incredibly helpful and accommodating, making sure every aspect of my stay was comfortable and enjoyable. The hotel's location is superb, with easy access to everything you could possibly need, especially the pyramids, which are just a stone's throw away. The view of the pyramids from my room was simply breathtaking and added an extra layer of magic to my stay. And let's not forget about the breakfast – it was delicious, with a variety of options to suit every palate. Overall, I highly recommend Piccolo Mondo Boutique Hotel to anyone looking for a memorable and valuable stay in the area.

    The guesthouse is not for those looking for luxury, but it offers comfortable accommodation. The area is quiet, which mattered the most to us. There is air conditioning in the room, but for us there was no need to turn it on. The view from the rooftop is extraordinary. The host was very attentive with us. He organized the pickup from the airport, prepared breakfast and dinner at the hours we wanted. The prepared meals were delicious.

    The host was exceptional and you can tell he put a lot of effort into the place. He even offered to fetch things from the grocery store for us if we didn't want to go out. Check-in and check-out couldn't have been easier. The apartment itself had everything we needed for one night. And of course, the views and hot tub were wonderful. The street is quieter compared to the surrounding neighborhood. There is a supermarket (with prices on the goods) very close by.

    The room was really nice, clean and modern with welcome water and some sweets and fruits. The free shuttle service runs every 30min to the airport and it is very convenient, if you have to stay overnight and have an early flight out. If you come late at night, I still recommend taking an uber and go to the city center: cheaper at the end. The restaurant La Orangerie inside the hotel is good: inexpensive and tasty. The staff is freindly.

    The staff were exceptionally friendly. We did two of their (reasonably priced) tours which were great (best guide we had in Egypt).Room and breakfast were average, but the way the staff looked after you made this hotel one I would definitely recommend to friends (we never felt that they were doing thing 'for more money/tips' which unfortunately is how we felt everywhere else we stayed). Shaima was a great host!

    Beautiful location in family orientated guest house. Beautiful family who make you feel comfortable and as a woman travelling alone I was protected and safe. All trips arranged to Giza Pyramids and I was shown the real Egyptian culture. Ragab is a wonderful host and speaks perfect English, his wife Abeer is a lovely lady and wonderful cook. The location has great views of Abu Sir Pyramids. Its quiet and peaceful. I will definitely return again.

    Great location - minutes walk to the metro station, Tahrir, Egyptian muzeum etc. Nice, clean and surprisingly quiet hostel. Dormitory is good place to meet other travelers to built a group for tours. Good value for dormitory.
