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!

The view was just amazing. We arrived at night and we could see the Pyramids illuminated through our windows. Next morning, you have breakfast with the Pyramids just in front of you. The owner was so cute. He helped us with anything we needed and got us every time when we left and came back some water bottles. Thanks so much and recommended.

The room my husband and I had was spacious and well decorated. Loved the bath tub in there, added an extra romantic point. The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. The location was great for us and it was close to everywhere we wanted to be. Loved our stay!

10 min by walk to the entrance of Gizeh pyramides, clean, nice family run apartment (not a hotel) which is easily big enough for a family, good value for the price. Safe, quite, with own small courtyard. Would go there definitely again. شكراً!

The staff of the Space Hostel is super nice! They made jokes with our kids and made us feel at home. We booked an excursion to Alexandria and had to leave by 7AM. They provided us with breakfast at 6.30 even though breakfast doesn't officially start until 8AM. Our kids really liked the cool blue lights under our beds. The room was comfy, bathroom looked new. Also, there was a lot less noise (honking from cars, music blasting, screaming) than in any other hotel we stayed at during our 2,5 weeks in Egypt, including some fancy way more expensive places. The location is convenient, just 15 minute walk to the Egyptian Museum of Antiquities. Highly recommended.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at this wonderful hotel, and I must say, everything exceeded my expectations! The accommodations were comfortable and clean, with attention to every detail. The staff went above and beyond to make sure I felt welcome and attended to throughout my stay. The location was perfect—close to all the attractions yet peaceful enough for relaxation. Overall, my experience was fantastic, and I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a memorable and enjoyable stay!

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.
