Pros:

A wonderful experience at Merak Hotel Giza! What made this stay truly special was staff member ABDO. He speaks excellent English, is very helpful, and knows all the right spots, hidden gems, and attractions in the area. Thanks to his tips, we had experiences we would never have discovered otherwise.

For the price, you get so much in return truly a unique experience for a bargain. Furthermore, breakfast was well-catered for and included, which provided a great start to every morning.

I would say the reception staff was very helpful this was probably the best part about this hotel but nothing else unfor
Pros:

I mean the one thing that was good was that it was walking distance from the pyramids but that is literally the only good thing.

Cons:

Not fully ready to accommodate people. Underdeveloped and just not it. I’ve stayed in dingy hotels but this was just not it. Breakfast was a joke apparently was told that there is no buffet on Fridays and that I should’ve known that. I wouldn’t recommend this hotel to be honest. Oh and the bathrooms smell bad like they aren’t being cleaned and no hot water
