Isis Hostel 2
We booked this hostel well in advance, and it absolutely met all our expectations—great value, excellent quality, and unbeatable location. Stayed for three nights, and since it was our first time visiting Cairo, we were a bit anxious about the delayed flight and whether the transfer would still be arranged. But everything went smoothly: upon exiting customs, we were greeted right at the airport exit by staff holding a sign with our hostel’s name and our names—so reassuring! The ride was fast and comfortable. The hostel is perfectly located in the heart of downtown. From our window, you can see the Egyptian Museum, and everything else—cafes, small shops, mosques, and the Nile riverside—are just a short walk away. Even better, there’s a bus station right nearby, which made it super easy to catch a bus straight to Sharm El Sheikh later that day. The room matched the description exactly: air conditioning, four 1.5-meter beds, wardrobe, three bedside tables, dresser, and a private bathroom with a bathtub and sink. Towels were provided—no hassle. The front desk team was incredibly friendly and helpful, speaking fluent English, which made communication effortless. They gave us great local tips on transportation, pricing, and must-visit spots. There’s also a shared kitchen just beside reception—complete with kettle, stove, sink, and dishes—all freely available, which is a huge plus. And the view from the kitchen? Absolutely stunning. We couldn’t believe how beautiful it was. Clean, tidy, affordable, and highly recommended!
