Clean rooms and bathrooms

Categories

Cleanliness
1
Multiple reviewers mention rooms and bathrooms being clean or 'très propres' and 'نظيف', indicating generally positive cleanliness.
Service
1
Staff repeatedly described as professional, helpful and accommodating (assisting with taxis, promptly supplying requested kettle/cups, 24h reception), so service sentiment is strongly positive.
Location
1
Location and view from the balcony praised repeatedly ('La localisation', 'Emplacement proche', 'incredible view', central location), though some confusion for taxis due to similar hotel names.
Room Quality
1
Room quality is mixed: comfortable beds and spacious bathrooms reported, but issues include scaffolding blocking balconies, rooms not ready at arrival (missing linens/towels) and an overbooking incident that forced a late relocation.
Amenities
1
Amenities received complaints: scary/unsafe lift, lack of standard in-room tea/coffee (needed to be requested), small and often full breakfast area, and occasional construction noise affecting access to balconies.
Value for Money
1
Mixed to negative: one review praises price/quality, but several serious issues (unexpected $25 early-arrival surcharge, advance charging with no room held, and a report of being effectively scammed) produce strong negative sentiment on value.
Food and Beverage
1
Breakfast is frequently praised ('Très bon petit déjeuné', 'Petit dej’ salé très copieux', 'Breakfast and Location'), though the breakfast area size and crowding were criticized.
Overall Experience
1
Overall impressions are mixed: many guests report an authentic, pleasant stay with helpful staff, clean rooms and good location, but serious negative incidents (overbooking at 2am, charges/dispute, noisy construction, and safety concerns with the lift) lower the overall experience.

Man muss starke Nerven haben.
Pros:

Die Lage und das gute Frühstück. Freundliches Personal. Es wird empfohlen, auch bei 2 Personen ein 3-Bett Zimmer zu nehmen, das bietet mehr Platz. Hotel im 3 Stock.

Cons:

Furchtbarer Zustand des Treppenhaus und des Eingangsbereich. Katastrophalen Zustand des Fahrstuhl, bei Regen musste er stillgelegt werden. Duschwasser schwer zu regulieren

Pros:

Freundliches und sympathisches Personal, vielfältiges Frühstück und gute Betten.

Cons:

Die zentrale Lage bedeutet auch, dass man viel vom hupenden Straßenverkehr hört.
Personal und Manager informieren unterschiedlich, was zu sehr unangenehmen Situationen führen kann.
Der antike, schöne Aufzug bringt einen nur bei trockener Luft in den 3. Stock.

Pros:

Overall nice hospitality. Although we were guided to City View Palace Hotel, not the City View Cairo Hotel which we reserved (same owner), the communication was very smooth and it turned out to be a good stay for us.

Cons:

Nothing special, but if they could have tea/coffee maker as a standard service, it would be perfect. (We asked for an electric pot and cups and they provided them immediately.)

Wir haben uns in diesem einfachen, zentralen Hotel sehr wohl gefühlt.
Pros:

Das Preis-/Leistungsverhältnis war sehr gut. Die Lage ist bestens. Das Zimmer mit Balkon war sauber.

Cons:

Vor dem Hotel ist eine Baustelle, an der manchmal nachts gearbeitet wurde, was sehr laut war.
