Ideal um Kairo zu erkunden. Uns hat es gefallen
Pros:

Die Zimmer im 6. Stock sind etwas in die Jahre gekommen. Zur Flussseite sind die Zimmer recht laut, auch wenn die Fenster geschlossen sind. Die Klimaanlage macht deutliche Geräusche. Aber das alles gehört einfach "Kairo Flair" dazu und für ein, zwei Nächte war es für uns kein Problem. Das Personal, der Service, das Frühstück, die Dachterrasse und die Lage reißen es unterm Strich komplett raus. Uns hat es gefallen.

Hôtel très propre, idéalement situé à proximité de tous les sites touristiques avec un accès facile. Le personnel est extrêmement gentil, accueillant et toujours prêt à rendre service. Le buffet du petit-déjeuner est très varié, copieux et soigneusement présenté. L'hôtel dispose également d'une piscine agréable, parfaite pour se détendre après une journée bien remplie de visites. Je tiens à remercier chaleureusement l'ensemble du personnel pour sa bienveillance, son professionnalisme et son attention tout au long de notre séjour

I can't think of anything that I didn't like.

Great gateaway in the city center
Pros:

It was an awesome gateway after a very poor hotel in the Giza area. The rooms were clean, the food was good. The pool was small but enjoyable still. Big thanks to the reception guy Mohy for upgrading our room with a Nile-view option one and letting us checkin earlier. I definitely recommend this hotel!

Cons:

Everything was great except for the thing they put under the sheets on the bed. It felt like that was for children who might pee during the night 😁 otherwise everything was awesome
