My stay at The St. Regis was truly exceptional from start to finish. The hotel exceeded all my expectations in every way. One of the standout features for me was the impeccable cleanliness—every corner of the property felt spotless and well-maintained, creating an atmosphere of pure comfort and luxury. The on-site restaurant was another highlight. The quality of the food, the presentation and the variety offered were all outstanding. Every meal was a delight, with fresh ingredients and thoughtful service making each dining experience special. The hotel itself is beautifully designed and feels brand new with a modern yet elegant aesthetic throughout. What truly sets The St. Regis apart, though, is the staff. Every team member I encountered was incredibly professional, warm and genuinely eager to help. Their attention to detail and personalised service went far beyond my expectations. I left feeling thoroughly impressed and very happy with my stay. I would not hesitate to return and highly recommend The St. Regis to anyone looking for a luxurious, comfortable and seamless hotel experience.

I really enjoyed my stay at Akhnaton Pyramids Hotel! I was traveling with my husband, and our main goal in Cairo was to visit the Pyramids — this hotel turned out to be the perfect choice. When we landed in Cairo, the hotel’s driver was already waiting for us at the airport. He was polite, professional, and so helpful, which immediately put us at ease after the flight.When we arrived at the hotel, Maria, the host, was waiting to welcome us. She was incredibly warm, friendly, and professional, instantly making us feel at home. She showed us the hotel facilities and personally escorted us to our room. The room was spotless, comfortable, and had the most amazing balcony view of the Pyramids. To top it off, Maria even offered us welcome drinks on the rooftop terrace — such a thoughtful touch! Throughout our stay, Maria went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable. She gave us helpful tips about exploring Cairo and was always just a message away whenever we needed assistance. Abdul was equally responsive and kind, which made everything so easy for us. The rooftop terrace was one of the highlights of the hotel — the view of the Pyramids from there is breathtaking, especially at sunset. The restaurant on the terrace was wonderful too. Moaz, who served us in the evenings, had an amazing vibe. His cheerful attitude, great music selection, and warm hospitality made every dinner so enjoyable. The food was absolutely delicious, and my husband and I especially loved their fresh guava juice — unforgettable! Breakfast was another great experience. Amr, impeccably dressed and always smiling, together with Fouad and the rest of the team, made sure we felt well taken care of every morning. Their friendly service added so much to our stay. The location couldn’t have been better just perfect for visiting the Pyramids and other nearby attractions. The hotel also helped us organize tours, which made exploring Cairo stress-free and enjoyable. We would definitely stay here again

Everything. The travel desk with whom we interacted quite frequently was also great. Abdul and Hamza were very cooperative and helpful. Khaled Talat and Mahmood took care of actual driving. They were superb in taking care of our travel needs including a long distance travel to Alexandria. However, we probably missed an exit in the airport while coming back and Mahmood made up the lost time by driving quickly.

Nada is an amazing guest relation employee. She sent me a message every day to check how my stay was going, and any request or recommendation was promptly attended to. I complained that the breakfast didn't have many fruit options and she guaranteed a plate of fruit every day in my room. although the hotel has some points of improvement, Nada makes the experience wonderful.

There is so much to see in Egypt, and we were lucky to be there for the grand opening week of the GEM. Cairo was our jumping off point to see other parts of Egypt. It’s a fascinating place, and the people were lovely. Personally, I wouldn’t bring young children on a trip like this - wait until they are old enough to appreciate what they are seeing. We mainly got around using Uber.

Terrible Experience - Avoid HOST PRIME APARTMENT IN REHAB!

Terrible Experience - Avoid HOST PRIME APARTMENT IN REHAB! I recently booked an apartment through Booking.com with HOST PRIME APARTMENT IN REHAB for my family, including young children, and it was a nightmare from start to finish. The host, Abdulaziz, was incredibly rude and unprofessional. The air conditioning didn’t work, and neither did the washing machine, which made our stay extremely uncomfortable, especially with kids. To make matters worse, two hours before our scheduled check-out, Abdulaziz turned off the electricity, leaving us in a terrible situation. This company is a scam, and I would strongly advise anyone, especially families, to avoid booking with them. The lack of basic amenities and the host's unprofessional behavior made this the worst experience we've ever had. I expected much better from a property listed on Booking.com. Save yourself the stress and book elsewhere.

My stay in Madinaty was excellent.

My stay in Madinaty was excellent. The flat was very clean, modern, and fully equipped with brand-new furniture and appliances. The location was great, quiet, and convenient, making it easy to relax and move around. The host was generous and welcoming, offering water and chocolates on arrival, and kindly allowed early check-in and late check-out. Everything was smooth and comfortable — I highly recommend staying here in Madinaty.

Lovely to see the Pyramids, but Cairo itself is a bit rundown much poverty in the streets, cars very old, no pedestrian crossings, therefore a bit of a hazard to cross roads. Prices are very cheap but some small shops take only cash EGP. Roads, cars and houses are very dusty. The Grand Egyptian Museum a must see especially for the Tutankhamun and the Museum of Civilization for the mummies. Old Cairo excursion really worth it. Enjoyed excursion for cruise on the Nile with dinner, belly dancing and tanoura show.

Cairo is chaotic, crowded, unfathomable to outsiders, and unforgettable. The urban maelstrom is not for the faint of heart, but for those who are willing to surrender to its madness, the rewards are manifold. I highly recommend a guide and a driver (Real Egypt is your top-notch go-to for organizing everything). Do NOT, I repeat, do NOT attempt to drive in Cairo. Do visit both the GEM and the National Museum. Wander the streets of medieval Cairo. Visit mosques from different eras. Of course visit the pyramids at Giza, but don't miss Saqqara for a better experience. Explore the delta and have lunch at The Lotus Farm. Enjoy Cairo in all of its exhausting splendor and squalor!
