Excelente ubicación y personal
Pros:

La ubicación excelente, en el centro. El hotel es tranquilo y cerca del mercado. El personal muy preocupado, además te preparan el desayuno para llevar en caso de tener alguna excursión.

Cons:

La variedad del desayuno, dentro de la caja que te entregan, te pasan pan y queso, pero como es para llevar, no hay forma de preparar un sandwich. La distribución de la habitación, el baño está a la entrada y no tiene ventilación, además de tener una ventana que da al dormitorio.

Top, allez y sans hésiter
Pros:

Tout. L'emplacement est incroyable, juste devant le Nile. Les chambres sont très spacieuses, décorées avec goût. Le matelas était incroyable pour moi qui avait un mal de dos.
Le personnel était aux petits soins et nous ont même préparé un petit déj à emporter parce que nos journées commençaient très tôt.

Allez y les yeux fermés.

Cons:

Rien. Tout était top.

Philae hotel is not minimum stundard according to the hotel fare.
Pros:

hotel location is vary nice along with nile river.

Cons:

Most bad thing of the hotel not availableity of the lift. Now a days it can't think a multistored hotel without a lift. It completely impossible to claimb 5 stored bulding. There narrow reception room is vary cheap with poorest furniture. There is no air condition at reception room. Therefore the waiting room is vary suffogating and anniying. One of the most bad thing is nominal breakfast of this hotel. The breakfast is not also munimum stundard with the big amount of hotel fare. Overall I have achived vary experince from philea hotel.
