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!

Located in the heart of Cairo, this hostel is 10 minutes’ walk from the Egyptian Museum and the Nile. It has a terrace and rooms with a balcony. Free Wi-Fi is available.

The rooms at the Cecilia Hostel are simply furnished and have wooden flooring, air conditioning, ironing facilities and a mosquito net. Some rooms have a private bathroom. It's hard to imagine a better location in Cairo. Nice, familial atmosphere in what could serve equally well as a backpacker hostel and a family hotel. Both foreigners and Egyptians stay here, which makes for a nice mix. Good value, nice buffet breakfast.

The hotel was even more beautiful to me than in the pictures. Beautifully decorated, lots of details to look at and admire. I stayed here twice and I would go back again if I return to Cairo. Also, rooms were super clean, breakfast is inexpensive, healthy, and delicious! Also, neighbourhood is interesting and safe for a solo female to walk around. The house is tucked behind a gate and is a quiet place away from Cairo’s noisy traffic.

Pyramids Glory Inn provides some units with city views, and the rooms come with a kettle. All guest rooms feature a wardrobe. The staff was incredibly kind and understanding. We were able to participate in many wonderful programs with their help. The prices for these programs included the tour guide, the driver and the entrance tickets and in some places it was possible to have breakfast and lunch as well. The rooftop was very cozy with a beautiful view of the pyramids. You have the option to have lunch or dinner there. We spent 5 nights there, next time we go to Egypt we will definitely choose this accommodation! I would like to thank you for all the help and kindness we received! Thank you for we were able to take part in a real dream vacation!
