Pros:

Удачное месторасположение отеля: 5 минут пешком от входа на плато Гиза рядом со Сфинксом. Просторный номер, в номере есть все необходимое. Вкусные завтраки, отзывчивый персонал. Спасибо молодому человеку на ресепшн за помощь с обменом билетов! Отличный вид из ресторана на пирамиды.

Cons:

В один из дней нужно было позавтракать пораньше. Два раза вечером предупредили на ресепшн, что завтрак должен быть готов к 8.00. Заверили, что все будет ок. Придя на завтрак к 8.00 обнаружили, что его даже не начинали готовить, пришлось ждать. В итоге поменяли планы и перенесли встречу с гидом на более позднее время.

Be Very Cautious
Pros:

The breakfast staff were amazing, and the quality of the breakfast was really good. The views over breakfast were good too. The rooms were lovely and clean, but there is no safe to keep your belongings. It was good to communicate via WhatsApp as they were helpful. They got s some milk on landing so we could have a cuppa. There is a local app called Indrive - use this instead of UBER

Cons:

Unfortunately, our experience was mixed due to some concerning behaviour from staff. While the airport pickup was smooth, we later realised we had been charged significantly more than what was listed on booking platforms.

As two women travelling alone, we chose this hotel based on its reviews, but things quickly felt off. We arrived late, and the staff repeatedly claimed their card machine wasn’t working, pushing us to pay in cash or via bank transfer. We declined. An hour later, they refunded our original card payment while still insisting the machine was broken—until it suddenly “worked” again.

Throughout our stay, we felt overcharged for almost everything—often up to four times the expected price. For example, when arranging transport to a festival, the staff quoted us $90 USD, but using Google Translate, we saw them negotiating $50 USD privately for themselves.

There were also uncomfortable moments around privacy. When a driver we had independently arranged picked us up, the staff questioned him about how long we’d be gone, when we’d return, and who he was.

Housekeeping was minimal—we received just one towel change and no proper room service over four days.

I wouldn’t say to completely avoid this place, but I strongly recommend being cautious. Keep your key with you, use trusted local apps for transport, and avoid cash payments when possible. Notably, the charge that appeared on my credit card afterwards was listed under a perfume shop—not the hotel—which raised further concerns.

We left two days early, and the member of staff on the last day spoke great English, we explained all of this. The manager did contact us via WhatsApp and offered us a meal for the feedback, but the experience was draining.

Pros:

It’s literally 3 minutes walk from the old entrance to the Giza park. The pyramids view is very nice. Staff is helpful. Big thing - it’s calm and silent. Windows are sound proof

Cons:

When you leave the hotel - you come to the street full of Cairo staff )

Pros:

Hotel in ottima posizione per visitare il complesso di Giza. Praticamente a fianco dell’ingresso secondario lato Sfinge. Camera al quarto piano nuova e spaziosa, letti comodi. Rumorosità buona rispetto alla media degli hotel in zona. Bel rooftop con vista piramidi. Staff molto gentile e disponibile. Colazione mediocre (molti alimenti confezionati)

Cons:

Ascensore sporco; alcuni spazi comuni necessitano di manutenzione
