The hotel is beautiful but what makes this place exceptional is the staff. They are kind, friendly, professional, and incredibly helpful. This is important when visiting a new country and one that is different to your own. They helped with suggestions for what to do in Cairo and Egypt and how to navigate all the little things like money, food, and transport. We felt so welcome and cared for. The wonderful staff are there 24/7 and became friends. Thanks to them, especially Lubna, Joseph, and Mohammed who made our visit an 11/10 and one we will remember fondly forever.

A Timeless Experience at the Crossroads of History and Luxury Staying at this hotel was nothing short of extraordinary. Nestled at the doorstep of one of the world’s most iconic wonders—the Great Pyramids and the Sphinx—this property seamlessly blends the majesty of ancient history with the elegance of modern design. Waking up to a view that has stood for thousands of years, while enjoying the comfort and sophistication of contemporary amenities, is truly an unforgettable experience. From the moment I arrived, the hospitality was exceptional. The front desk staff were warm, professional, and incredibly efficient, making check-in a breeze and setting the tone for a memorable stay. The housekeeping team deserves special mention for maintaining immaculate standards while always greeting guests with a smile. The Food & Beverage team went above and beyond, offering not only delicious cuisine but also heartfelt service that made every meal feel personal and special. This is more than just a hotel stay—it’s a journey through time, enveloped in comfort and care. Whether you're here for relaxation, exploration, or inspiration, this place offers a rare chance to connect with Egypt’s timeless soul while enjoying world-class hospitality. Highly recommended for travelers who seek both meaning and excellence.

Very good location and safe lifts. The entrance to the hotel is clean and welcoming. I came early and they gave us an early checking-in because of it. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The rooms were very clean and the beds were comfortable and big. The area was good and the rooms were sound-proof. Ac units worked well and wifi was also stable. The breakfast was very nice, and when we requested an omelette, extra bread and tea they provided us with them. Very safe location with lots of cheap food stores, coffee shops and restaurants.

The location was ideal to get to the museum and other tourist attractions. The room was very clean and comfortable but the best thing about the stay though was the staff. We arrived early and Andrew on the desk was very welcoming and allowed us to leave our bags whilst we visited the pyramids.
