Rövidtávra megfelelő, közel a piramisokhoz. Ár-érték arányban jó.
Pros:

Közel a piramosokhoz. A személyzet kedves. A tetőtérről szép kilátás a piramismezőre. Két éjszakát töltöttünk, a szoba egyszerű, de a célnak megfelelő. A fürdőszoba felszereltsége alapvető, tiszta. A reggeli jó, elfogadható. Az a la carte étel közepes a vendéglőjükben.

Cons:

Nem elég a hangszigetelés, zajos éjszaka is. Kicsi ablak. Személyzet angol tudása közepes. A szálloda egy mellékutcában található, a környék elsőre barátságtalan, de semmi problémánk nem volt ezzel.

Super séjour !
Pros:

Personnel au service des clients, Tito a été très aidant pour la réservation des taxis et une jeune femme très gentille nous a aidé pour acheter de l’eau. Le rooftop a une jolie vue sur les pyramides. Chambre avec le nécessaire pour le séjour et avec une vue sur les pyramides, très agréable. Restauration sur place très pratique avec un bon rapport qualité prix

Cons:

La wifi ne capte que dans les couloirs ou les lieux communs, pas dans la chambre.

Nice comfortable stay, location was good, specially rooftop cafe had amazing pyramid view
Pros:

The location is pretty good. Its a new hotel. Lot of scope to improve. The restaurant/cafe staff still has to be language friendly. I mean English communication is necessary. Rest the view from the rooftop cafe was a wow. Food at the restaurant was decent. Overall a good find.

Cons:

I think to be a world class hotel , or at least host international pax, its good to be have people to communicate in English, specially at the restaurant and front desk. Restaurant staff lacked it. So we had little difficulty to explain. Rest it was ok.

Perfect
Pros:

Our stay was absolutely exceptional. We spent 5 days in this wonderful hotel, and from the moment we arrived, we were amazed by its beauty, cleanliness, and the warm welcome from Tito. He escorted us to our room, which exceeded all of our expectations. The room was spacious, spotless, and beautifully decorated. Tito then took us to the rooftop and offered us the most breathtaking view I have ever seen. I won’t say too much so you can keep the surprise for yourself, but I can honestly say it was perfect. A huge thank you to Tito for his kindness, professionalism, and constant smile.
Every morning, we enjoyed breakfast at the hotel, where we had everything we could wish for: croissants, fresh bread, jams, fruits, and delicious traditional Egyptian dishes. Every evening, we also had dinner at the hotel, and we would especially like to thank the restaurant team. The waiters were exceptional, and we had the pleasure of meeting Gamal, the restaurant manager. His professionalism truly impressed us. He also shared a lot of fascinating knowledge about the pyramids with us. He was incredibly welcoming, kind, attentive, and always smiling.
Thank you to the Merak Pyramids Hotel for this magical stay and for the outstanding professionalism of the entire team.
I 100% recommend this hotel. In my opinion, it is one of the best hotels I have ever stayed in during my travels.

Cons:

Nothing.
