The location is perfect for a stay in Cairo. There are so many food options right around the Hostel, Ubers are super easy to get in this part of the city too. The rooms are beautiful, super clean, the beds are comfy, the view is absolutely amazing from the 10th floor. And our room smelled so good, really great detail! The common areas are super clean and inviting and the kitchen is really nicely equipped. Breakfast was yummy and really filling. Last but not least, the staff is super friendly and helpful and that makes all the difference during super packed trips when you’re tired :) Absolutely recommend!

1. Fantastic support by Mohammad. The human touch makes all the difference when we are tourists in an unfamiliar foreign country. So it was a pleasure to get tips and help from Mohammad. 2. Superb location. If you are in Egypt for the pyramids then there is no place like this one. Mornings and evenings were spent on the terrace enjoying the pyramids

The room itself was just like in the photos, maybe even better. A bathtub next to the glass wall and a view of the pyramids is an excellent and creative idea. It was clean and comfortable. Now the best part is the staff, the willingness to help you without being pushy. They can help with tours, taxi and food that is not in the menu. The food was great, especially “kosher” which is a traditional vegan meal and very big in volume. My girlfriend liked the non-vegan meals too.

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 dormitory was very comfortable and clean, and the bathroom included. Breakfast was delicious. The staff were amazing, extremely helpful with tips about the local area (where to eat, and pit fall to look out for, ect.). The hostel also organised tours that were really good, and at a good price.

Very good location in the center of Cairo. 10 minutes walking to the Egyptian Museum and surrounded by restaurants and shopping. Safe neighborhood. The service was excellent, very kind people!! Nice breakfast. The building is a little bit old in the outside, but the hostel rooms are very nice and comfortable.

The hostel is conveniently located in the city center of Cairo. There are restaurants and hidden cafes nearby which made it appealing for me. My small private room was cute with a comfortable bed, AC, bathroom and perfect for a night stay. In addition, the hostel offers dormitory rooms for solo travelers. I felt very safe when walking in the area alone. The staff was friendly, kind, and helpful. Thank you for letting me use the washer.
