The bed was somewhat hard
I didn’t like that the sheets were tucked in, but this is a problem at every place I stay.
Everything else was very nice.

The historic character & beautiful old elevators are wonderful. The staff is kind & helpful. The breakfast buffet has a wide selection but wasn’t delicious. The coffee wasn’t very nice. We’ll be happy to return, of course.

A night by the Mediterranean
From friendly staff, great access to most sites by walking, an amazing view my stay was excellent. I wanted to stay longer. But definitely coming back to Alexandria if I can stay in this hotel. I also loved the amazing Greek-Roman museum nearby
