Good value and great location for visiting the pyramids
Pros:

The breakfast was continental style (with little extra, eg omelette/falafel) served on the roof terrace. The location is difficult to find first time (in a maze of back streets) but is a 15-minute walk from the pyramids/sphinx complex and restaurants. The manager Adel was extremely helpful, eg walking us to the main street first time. The room (#1) was large with 3 beds (we only needed 2) and the ensuite was functional. It was great value for money.

Cons:

The accommodation did not match the description in booking.com but we were happy with it.

Good value. Good location for visiting pyramids. Excellent host.
Pros:

The host/manager was extremely helpful. The room (#1) was a very good size with 3 large single beds and a good ensuite. Breakfast was continental style - perfectly adequate. The location is good BUT it's hard to find. It's a 15 minute walk to the southern entrance to the pyramids and restaurants. OK when you've walked it once through a maze of back streets if you've a good memory. We found it very safe area despite its appearance.

Cons:

No complaints. Good value. One of the single beds (which we didn't need) was rock hard.

Felt like part of the family
Pros:

The room was very clean and comfortable, and they gave me some water and other things for free. The hotel stuff is an incredible family! They helped me with absolutely everything.. from very high quality cheap tours (where they included a lot of extra tips and comfort things), to getting good prices on shops, restaurants, hidden gems in town, etc. I am extremely happy with this experience. They treated me like family and this made my trip way better.
PS: you cannot have better views that this; every breakfast there was the joy of the trip!

Cons:

I couldn’t stay for longer because of work.

ACHTUNG/ATTENTION: Finger weg! Kein Warmwasser. Lausiges Frühstück. Alles auf Abzocke ausgerichtet!
Pros:

Positiv ist hier einzig und alleine der Blick von der Dachterrasse zu werten.

Cons:

Bei den positiven Rezensionen muss es sich um Fakes handeln. Ich habe in 40 Jahren Reisetätigkeit noch nie einen derart unverschämten und dreisten Besitzer (Herrn El Gabry) getroffen. Die Lage des Hotels ist verwinkelt in nicht asphaltierten staubigen Gassen, die kaum ein Taxi findet. Hinter dem Haus sind Abbruchsbauten und eine seltsame Halde, auf der dutzende Hunde die ganze Nacht heulen. Zu Fuß kommt man in 10 min auf die Hauptstraße. Nur nach Protest erhielten wir 2 reservierte Zimmer (statt eines). Meines war eiskalt und es wurde nach Protest ein Miniheizstrahler gebracht. In der Dusche war nur kaltes Wasser (tröpferlweise). Meine Nase war verstopft, wahrscheinlich Staubmilben. Das Frühstück war basic und lieblos (Brot, Joghurt, wenig Käse, ein Wurstblatt, ein Ei, seltsame Süßigkeiten, Juice). Kaffee, Tee für "extra charge" wie alles hier!!! 10 Dollar wurden für 6 Fingerhüte Kaffee und 2 kleine Wasserflaschen extra verlangt. Bei einer alten Dame behauptete Herr El Gabry wahrheitswidrig, sie habe nicht gezahlt. Dies wurde dann zurück genommen und als Computerfehler dargestellt. Für 9 Bier zu Sylvester wollte er 100 Dollar, was wir ablehnten. Die 4 Sterne sind in Wahrheit nicht einmal einer. Ich empfehle statt dieses Hauses, die Hotels bis zu 200m rund um das Sphinx Gate.

Pyramid views with friendly staff
Pros:

Amazing rooftop with a view of the pyramids, and very friendly and accomodating staff. They were happy to organise transport and tours according to our needs. Great value overall.

Cons:

The property was a bit hard to locate, and down a quieter street.

Pros:

Csodás szállás, a piramisok mellett! Lenyűgöző látványban volt részünk, nagyon kedves, rugalmas, mindenben a kedvünket leső házigazdákkal. Gizában egészen biztosan az egyik legjobb szállás! 3 éjszakát töltöttünk itt.

The Egyptian breakfast was absolutely delicious, and the rooftop view of the Pyramids was breathtaking.
Special thanks to Ali, who manages the rooftop — he was always kind and welcoming.
Big thanks to Hussein at the reception for his great hospitality, and to Ahmed for perfectly organizing my tours around Cairo and Giza.

The rooms were clean, the staff were friendly, and everything felt warm and safe — real Egyptian hospitality!
Highly recommended to anyone visiting Cairo or Giza! 🌅🇪🇬
