Perfection at the Pyramids
Pros:

Our first visit to Cairo; our main goal was to visit the pyramids and new GEM museum. The Mena House was perfect for us. We invested in a pyramid view room which took our breath away! You could never be unhappy looking out from our balcony. We also made use of the private entrance and golf buggy to the pyramid site - we could avoid all queues and arrived super early before the crowds. This was so convenient - even a little exclusive!

The hotel is smart, easy to navigate and very comfortable. The gardens are beautiful and the pool was quiet and elegant. It is clear that the property is very well cared for with attention to detail shown in every corner.

We ate at both the Indian restaurant and Italian for dinner, plus poolside snacks. Service was great and food was pleasant and well priced.

The biggest compliment goes to the staff at this hotel. Every single staff member we met: pool attendants, concierge, reception, security, drivers, gardeners and house keeping were warm, welcoming and so professional.

Thank you for a wonderful visit.

Tolle Parkanlage.

Tw waren wohl Gäste mit einem Tagespass am Pool. Es wurde Bier aus Dosen getrunken. Im Restaurant abends war immer viel los, tw etwas schwierig mit Reservierung.

Priceless views and location
Pros:

We stayed 3 nights in this amazing hotel. We loved every minute of our stay there. We hesitated between this one and the city centre as there you can have beer and cheaper hotels but we were really happy we chose Mena house. The location and views are unbeatable.

The garden gives an atmosphere of tranquility from the very noisy city. We were always happy to go back after a busy day. W leaps enjoyed the swimming pool area.

We booked a pyramids view room. Yes, it is more expensive and maybe not needed but in case you want to wake up and go to sleep with a view on pyramids, there is no better choice. It was my dream to see the pyramids so no regrets here.

The staff in the hotel is very friendly and professional.

The breakfast in the Pavillon is very good, very good variety and again, the view is just amazing.

The hotel offers a special treat to its guest - a golf cart service to the Plateau which brings you directly to the Great pyramid, and if you wish also back to the hotel. This was great. We went rather early (we took the cart at 8.30) and hence, we were at the Great pyramid before all the crowds. Thanks to this, we were able to go inside the pyramid without major stress as there were not many people and it was easy to get out.

If we ever go back to Cairo for pyramids, we will stay in Mena House.

5 nights in Cairo/Giza! A stay like no other!!!
Pros:

The beauty of this hotel is unmatched. After visiting 6 continents, this has been the most magical. The staff goes above and beyond to make you feel like hospitality is their only mission. Our experience was grander at the morning breakfast with Mohamed Hassan and his staff helped us enjoy once in a lifetime views of the Pyramids from the restaurant. His kindness, patience and quest for excellence makes the hotel even better! I recommend this hotel for anyone looking for ancient wonders and high end luxury!

Un hôtel dédié aux événements
Pros:

Le positionnement au pied des Pyramides (accès direct avec vos billets possible par voiturette via la conciergerie de l’hôtel)
Personnel charmant et aux petits soins.
Bonne communication par mail en amont de mon voyage (organisation).
Très beau jardin très bien entretenu (mais tronqué en partie par l’emplacement pour les événements)
Très grande et belle piscine (mais pas côté pyramides, côté rue —> bruyant)

Cons:

Barre d’hôtel de 400 chambres (plus joli de nuit, on voit moins le côté « barre d’immeuble »).
On est loin de l’hôtel de charme et on y vient uniquement pour l’emplacement.
Car soyons clair, le Marriott a donné la priorité à l’organisation d’événements plutôt qu’aux voyageurs :
4 nuits / 4 jours passés, pas un seul jour où nous avons pu profiter de la vue au petit déjeuner du jardin devant les pyramides (la très belle vue mise en avant sur leur site, Instagram…).
Une barrière en fausse végétation pour cacher derrière la misère de l’organisation du montage démontage des estrades, tables, colonnes, supports en tout genre … pour les festivités (2 mariages, 50 ans d’une societé…).
Voir photo (bruit de viseuse, dévisseuse, marteau…en plus).
Malgré les désagréments, le prix des chambres ne baissent pas (chambre sur jardin, sans vue sur les pyramides, à 400€ réservée plus de 6 mois à l’avance et à 800€ une semaine avant, c’est démesurément cher pour un hôtel au Caire et avec ce niveau de désagrément.
Le petit déjeuner est très abondant, mais pas de qualité (viennoiseries sèches, pas d’intérêt gustatif sur certains plats).
Si vous dîner au restaurant le 139 Pavillon le soir, musique beaucoup beaucoup trop forte et on préfère lorsque ça ne chante pas, car c’est pire. Une petite musique plus douce pour dîner serait (à notre goût) plus approprié.
Et pas de chance, nous avons aussi eu des travaux juste sous notre fenêtre (pour la réalisation d’un petit chemin traversant la pelouse).
Pas de compensation offerte compte tenu de tous ces désagréments.
Le panache et l’élégance du Mena House semblent bien appartenir au passé.
