Two words: Osama and Hamza!!!!! The best guys ever :) Solo travelers, independent travelers, anyone…you can trust Osama to take care of you during your stay in Giza. It really felt like we had a friend in Egypt. It can be overwhelming in the city, but Osama can set you up with trusted guides for any sightseeing you want. Want the best food brought to your room? No problem. Need laundry sent out? No problem. Really, we felt so lucky to have Osama helping us. He is a fantastic person!! We absolutely loved our stay at the Queen Pyramids View Inn. The rooms (we had 2 because we stayed with our children) were comfortable, clean, and even had balconies. The AC was COLD, which was perfect. The highlight of the property has to be the rooftop deck, where you can wake up and go to sleep with the pyramids. Breakfast was simple and delicious—the most yummy falafel I’ve ever had, together with boiled eggs, beans, fresh bread, cheese, and coffee. Osama and Hamza are a great team and make the hotel special. STAY HERE!!!

    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.

    Mohamed was a great host in a very nice, cozy guesthouse. We got breakfast whenever we wanted, and he drove us to a restaurant when we arrived late the first night. We were overwhelmed by the amazing view to the Giza pyramids from the rooftop. That was way better than expected. Thank you, for sure coming back next time in Egypt!
