Good place to stay and enjoy!
This Hotel is near Cairo City Center but also accesible to go to other parts (as the pyramids) and also is clean and comfortable to stay after a full day of adventures outside.
The food is good and the staff is very friendly.
The rooftop bar/restaurant is amazing, just take note that they don't offer alcoholic drinks (in the whole hotel)

Amazing Stay – Highly Recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
We absolutely loved everything about this hotel! From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Everyone was incredibly friendly, helpful, and attentive, which made our stay even more special. The location was perfect, and the view of the Nile River was simply breathtaking. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would definitely stay here again. Highly recommend!

Average stay
Hotel is average, we suffered a lot with the key, was not working properly for the elevator and the room and we had to go to the reception several times to fix it. No ironing machine in the room, no slippers, the shampoo was of a very poor quality

This is a nice hotel and we enjoyed our stay here. The location is right by the Nile and across from a park.
Th rooms are decent size and clean. The elevators are fast and we didn't have to wait longer for them.
Service by the staff was prompt.
We really enjoyed the breakfast served each morning. It had a lot of options and fueled us for the day.
Overall, nice stay and highly recommend.

The staff were very kind and courteous and spoke enough English to assist whenever we needed help. The hotel is starting to show its age a bit, but is still mostly well-maintained. Although the rooftop restaurant and the breakfast cafe were very good and convenient, it does feel a bit limited. The area outside the hotel can be a bit noisy at night, but my wife and I are used to sleeping in a loud environment. Overall, a pleasant experience.

We had a wonderful stay thanks to the kind and friendly staff and lovely view of the Nile. The hotel is a short walk away from the Egyptian Museum and is on the quieter side of the river. The food was great and views from the rooftop restaurant were spectacular. Thanks to all for a great stay and to Mr. Omar for keeping our room spotless.

Pros
Amazing view, lovely and very helpful staff. Very good location to go around in Cairo (and Giza). Thanks to Ahmed at the reception, he was very kind to give us a free upgrade. Breakfast was decent enough too.
Cons
Couple of minor issues (blocked toilet, telephone not working, etc.) but they were very quick to address them so not a big deal.
