    Our room (although we booked one of the biggest) was small and had a very narrow corridor leading to the balcony (with a fantastic view over the pyramids and sphinx). Unfortunately this was the only place with a bit of space to keep our suitcases but as it was so narrow we could barely open them (2 big suitcases).. If you’re traveling with few luggage then you should be ok but not with luggage for a month travel around Egypt (at least not for us). The bathroom is in urgent need of a deep cleansing. The tiles are very yellow (original color was definitely white). As we only spent there 2 nights and the main purpose (to be as close as possible from the Giza Plateau) was achieved, this is overall a good place to stay.

    The location is unbeatable and the staff is very nice and helpful

    (Read until the end) Me and my friends booked a full day transportation service through El Cairo to visit the most important spots of the city for a fair price. At some point during the day there was some miscommunication with the driver (who was also super friendly) about visiting a place that for him was not included but that we were told at the hotel it was indeed. As it was a miscommunication we simply contacted the hotel and in a matter of 20 minutes while we were eating something everything was sorted out and we could continue with the tour as promised, which also makes me recommend taking tours organized by them, most of other places will not respect the deal or ask for more money, but not here.

    First of all, staff from the hotel are super friendly and helpful. I arrived to the hotel very early in the morning (7:00 am), but they could give me a room right away, which was very nice and most hotels don’t do this. They even let one of my friends staying in a different hotel have breakfast at the rooftop with me free of charge. The rooftop has an amazing view to the pyramids and was very comfortable. Even though the neighborhood is a bit chaotic and hotel is not a 5 stars hotel, once inside the hotel one can relax and enjoy the stay. Tours to the city.

    The hotel arranged airport drop off but dropped me off at different airport. I told the driver my flight number and airlines, the driver said terminal 2 is right but eventually, i had to take Uber.

    The staffs were really nice and friendly (the reception staff & Kaman)

    The local vendors in the street outside can be very noisy. There are a number of staircases to the rooftop restaurant, so anyone with mobility issues would find this hotel a challenge.

    A lovely, well placed hotel. The staff are so friendly and helpful. Our room was basic, but clean. Wifi is a bit hit and miss, as it is generally in Egypt. Breakfast was good, particularly with such a view of the pyramids and sphinx. Lots of local colour with the camels and horses going to the entrance early in the morning. Would be happy to stay here again.

    The hotel room was small but adequate. The bathroom shower was very small, which made showering difficult for my 6'5 husband. Our room had a beautiful view of the pyramids but with the view came A LOT of street noise. We got in very late the first night we stayed and they ran our credit card for our room, they told us the server was down and the card did not process so they could not provide us a receipt. The next day they asked to run our card again but I had got notification from our credit card company that the transaction had went through and we did not owe anything. The staff called their bank and their bank said it had not went through. We called our credit card company and they said it had been processed. So we had no choice but to have them run our card again and this resulted in duplicate charges. I am now having to dispute one of the charges on my credit card since there are two. This was very irritating that while on vacation we had to spend a lot of time on the phone trying to sort this out and now since we are back we are having to do the same. I am not saying this was dishonest by the hotel, they did say they called their bank and their bank said the charge had not went through, so I am not sure why we essentially paid for our room twice? But hopefully we can get the one charge reversed. I would recommend that you pre-pay for your room before checking in.

    You cannot get a better view of the pyramids of Giza than this hotel! We were close to restaurants and shops and get a short walk to the entrance of the pyramids.

    The room wasn't very soundproof. If you are easily disturbed by noise, then maybe this isn't for you, but after long days of sightseeing I slept pretty well!

    The location next to the Sphinx gate for the Giza pyramids complex is great and means avoiding the big crowds at the main gate, especially if you go early. Breakfast was very good, and eating it with a view from the roof terrace overlooking the pyramids was wonderful. Views from the balcony just as good (thanks for the upgrade!). Staff were very helpful and made our stay as comfortable as possible.

    The walls are too thin and one room was right next to the stairway which gave a lot of noise when anyone walk up or down or talk.

    Location was superb as we could see all of Giza from the terrace 👍🏻

    My family liked everything about the property.

    The location couldn’t be better and the staff couldn’t be friendlier or more helpful. The rooms were fine and the beds were comfortable. The breakfast was very nice and having the opportunity to sit and eat while looking at the pyramids was just phenomenal.
