Would recommend it anyone!:)
Pros:

We traveled from a non-Arab country together with my boyfriend, stayed two nights. I believe Novotel El Borg Cairo Hotel has the best location among all of the hotels (including the five stars) in Cairo. We stayed in a corner room, on the river side. It has sunrise right into the room. Amazing and panoramic view. If we ever come to Cairo again, we will definitely stay here, without a doubt. The room was spacious, had a big couch too. The bathroom had both a shower and a tub. The staff was helpful and friendly. Breakfast was great, we loved it. The hotel has Starbucks coffee and Mövenpick in its lobby. The ubers can drive up to entrance of the building, which is good when you have big luggage. The room was clean, the bed was big and comfy, the AC did its job properly during the very hot (outside was 43degrees celcius at some point) three days. Do it was 10 out of 10 stay for us. Thank you to lovely staff for being accomodative on my birthday getaway in Cairo!

Cons:

Nothing I can think of.

Pros:

Bardzo udany pobyt! Hotel spełnił nasze oczekiwania pod każdym względem. Śniadania były bardzo smaczne i różnorodne, a obsługa niezwykle miła i pomocna przez cały pobyt. Dużym plusem było również to, że przy zameldowaniu otrzymaliśmy upgrade pokoju — zamiast standardowego pokoju dostaliśmy Juniorsuite, co było bardzo miłym zaskoczeniem. Wszystko było na wysokim poziomie, czysto i komfortowo. fajny kameralny basen. Zdecydowanie polecam ten hotel!

Tranquilidade no meio do caos do Cairo
Pros:

A simpatia e a prestabilidade dos funcionários. Particularmente a Aya no apoio do front-desk e também do Mohri.
A localização é excelente, talvez mesmo a melhor do Cairo.
As instalações eram boas e funcionavam bem. A piscina é um pouco pequena, mas agradável, possivelmente insuficiente para a época alta.
O Hotel fornece um tipo de serviços e amenidades que os europeus esperam, apesar da limitação de venda de álcool, compreensível num país maioritariamente muçulmano.
No pequeno almoço os produtos eram de boa qualidade em geral, não sendo excepcionais, mas pode-se dizer que tem um bom pequeno almoço.

Cons:

A falta de espaço na área do pequeno almoço, com cadeiras em cima umas das outras e poucos lugares para sentar. Os copos de sumos eram diminutos.
