Pros:

ホテルは建物の6階と7階で9階に食堂があります。外からはホテルだと気づかず何回か通り過ぎてしまいました。施設は古いですが、快適に過ごすことができました。
タフリール広場や考古学博物館へは徒歩で行きました。

Pros:

Tha property has been refurbished but it has lost its old charm and its old management and staff. The airport pick up didn't work which was a bit of a hussle but at least the staff at the reception desk apologized.

Pros:

Anyone who stays here needs to realise that this us a very old and basic property. For the price you cant go wrong, but dont expect western standards. Its like stepping back in time which ads a charm to it. Overall it was a place to bunk for the night and that's it. So with that, and the overall price, it was perfect for me.

Pros:

I stayed at the Lotus Hotel for about a week. The location is great, in the heart of downtown Cairo. The room is large, with air conditioning.
A drawback of being in downtown is the surrounding noise from the streets at night.
Breakfast was typical and good.
I'd definitely stay there again!

Really ok for a night or 2
Pros:

This is a very old hotel. You can see pictures of it back in the day on the walls. Its hard to find and in a very run down building, but its like being in a time warp. The beds were clean and comfortable. It looks dirty because its old, but i wiped at some places and they were clean, just stained over time, like in the bathroom. Check-in was tedious, filling out a paper with your home address and profession, bad exchange rate given and you must pay cash. Charged me $8 to wash a load of laundry and hang it out to dry. Wifi in reception only. This hotel is fine for a night or two passing through, but if you book it gor your whole vacation, you may be unhappy. Its very close to the museum and tahrir square!

Filthy bathroom
Pros:

Dirtiest toilet I have ever seen in a hotel. Had to clean the toilet before using. Would not use the bathroom here unless I was desperate. Otherwise the hotel seemed okay but the filthy bathroom alone pulled down the grade. The shower was nasty too. ⁷

Terrible place
Pros:

An trash film. It’s on 7 floor of an old building. Elevator has no door. No one in the reception helps you to get a taxi. No towel for shower just small one for face. No mini bar in the room. No fan. Room completely dirty. The ceiling is falling. Full of flies. Breakfast ridiculous. Not joking: I was afraid the building falls down every night. I prayed a lot. Except for an old gentleman in the reception, all others are rude. See the pictures. Run from here!

Pros:

The hotel has lots of character and has retained its mid-twentieth century charm. The staff were unfailingly helpful and pleasant. Our room was large, comfortable and air conditioned, and the bathroom had been modernised and was good.

Pros:

Das Hotel liegt in einigen oberen Etagen eines Hochhauses. Es ist etwas in die Jahre gekommen, aber insgesamt in einem recht guten Erhaltungszustand. Lediglich die sanitären Anlagen würden eine Erneuerung brauchen. Allerdings sind sie grundsätzlich funktionstüchtig. Die Betten sind bequem, die Zimmer sind mit modernen Klimaanlagen ausgestattet. Das Personal ist freundlich hilfsbereit. Das Hotel ist günstig in der Innenstadt gelegen, so dass in der Umgebung gute Einkaufsmöglichkeiten und eine Anbindung an den öffentlichen Nahverkehr gegeben sind.
