Hat den Erwartungen leider nicht entsprochen. wenn man konkretes Zimmer vorher anfragt evtl schon.
Pros:

Lobby, Lounge Restaurant, Terrasse schön, interessante Lage, wenn man eintauchen möchte in die Altstadt und das Feiern abends. Unglaublich laut abends, waren während der Feiertag nach Ramadan da. Mit Ohrstöpseln gings.

Cons:

Unser Zimmer hatte leider so gar nichts mit denen, die hier zu sehen sind zu tun. Hatte extra 2 größere/teurere Zimmer/Suiten gebucht für etwas mehr Platz. 1 davon war wirklich alt, staubig, dunkel und gar nicht schön dekoriert (rote Pailettenvorhönge, Bauchtanzkostüm im Schrank 😑). Zimmer Belly Dance nicht buchen. Das andere, 14, war besser, aber auch 3 kleine Bereiche. Service nur auf Nachfrage, auf Bitten wurde nur teilweise reagiert (scheint aber insgesamt üblich zu sein).

An exciting start in the middle of the historic Islamic market.
Pros:

The hotel is stunning, with ornate details that truly make it a unique space. The restaurant at the hotel has wonderful views of the Islamic district in Cairo and the food was delicious. The room was very well appointed and spacious for being in the middle of the city!

Cons:

The area it is in is remarkably noisy, as it is in the middle of the main Cairo walking market. They do provide earplugs for sleeping and I was able to sleep despite the loud music outside. It is also very difficult to get to because it is in a walking only area. The hotel did have a golf cart that was available for my departure, which was helpful!

Nightmare in a fairy tale hotel.
Pros:

Wonderful old furniture, and Arabian fittings and decor.
A very large suite.

Cons:

The horrific noise ( music) from the bars just beside the hotel which went on until 2h37 a.m.
Inescapable , constante, making rest and sleep impossible anywhere in the hotel, despite the ear plugs waiting on your beside table.
We were so distraught we left the next morning despite having paid for 3 nights.
The Egyptian board of Tourism should be made aware of this. It is an absolute disgrace that one voukd be asked to pay 300 euros a night for such an experience.

The inability of the staff anywhere in the hotel to speak English or to understand it, should also be pointed out.

Stunningly beautiful boutique hotel
Pros:

The hotel is superb, atmospheric, beautiful, elegant, clean, excellent staff, wonderful breakfast, excellent restaurant with free entertainment, lovely roof top terrace.
Right in the heart of Islamic Cairo.

Cons:

The noise outside, we moved to a back room and still some noise. I could only sleep with ear plugs- we knew this so put up with it.

Unique and fabulous Hotel, worth the experience without a doubt.
Pros:

Charming, old world building & decor. A very unique and special experience staying at this Hotel.
The roof top restaurant was fantastic for breakfast and dinners. Food and service was extra special.
All the staff were friendly and very helpful. The location right at the beginning of the market was perfect for exploring and also near the gate to walk to to catch Ubers to monuments in that area of Cairo.

Cons:

The Hotel was positioned across from an all night cafe that played music at super loud levels. The hotel does provide ear plugs on your night stand to help lessen the noise & help you sleep.

Splendido! Speriamo di poter ritornare presto a Le Riad!
Pros:

Il nostro soggiorno a Le Riad è stato davvero fantastico.
La colazione è ottima e molto abbondante, quasi un pranzo. Noi abbiamo scelto la colazione egiziana, ma c’è anche la possibilità di optare per una colazione continentale più tradizionale oppure per la “country”, una via di mezzo tra le due.

Le camere sono molto spaziose e arredate tutte in modo diverso, rispecchiando perfettamente lo stile e il gusto della zona. La terrazza dove si fa colazione e si pranza è semplicemente splendida. Anche il quartiere è vivace e piacevole.

Siamo arrivati molto tardi la sera, a causa del ritardo del nostro volo, ma il pulmino ci ha accompagnati direttamente davanti all’ingresso. Nonostante fossero le 3 di notte, lo staff ci ha accolti con grande gentilezza e un sorriso enorme.

Tutto il personale è stato estremamente gentile e sempre disponibile a soddisfare ogni nostra esigenza.
L’unico rammarico è stato aver trascorso solo poche ore in questo meraviglioso hotel, davvero ricco di fascino.

Cons:

Niente. Ci è piaciuto tutto!

Un hotel fantastico proprio nel centro antico del Cairo
Pros:

Un hotel fantastico proprio nel centro antico del Cairo. La gentilezza e la professionalità dello staff, la bella e spaziosa suite, la terrazza sui tetti, la colazione ottima e abbondante...mi è sembrato davvero tutto perfetto. Un grazie particolare ad Hussein della reception per la sua gentilezza, cortesia e professionalità. Grazie Hussein!
