I've been visiting Cairo regularly over the past few years, but my stay at Horus House Hotel Zamalek was truly unforgettable. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel like family—warm, welcoming, and genuinely attentive in a way I haven’t experienced elsewhere. The rooms were spotless and cozy, especially during winter, and the bathrooms were clean and well-maintained. I also appreciated the open shared areas where you can relax, read, or chat with other guests—perfect for a more personal, community-like vibe. What stood out most was the value: the pricing is competitive compared to other hotels in the area, making it one of the best (if not the best) options in Cairo. Overall, our time here was exceptional—comfortable, friendly, and full of good energy. I’d absolutely return and recommend it to anyone looking for a genuine, well-run place to stay.
Staying at Zamalek X Hostel was an absolute highlight of my trip to Cairo. Located right in the heart of Zamalek, it's incredibly convenient for exploring the city—just a short walk to great cafes, restaurants, and landmarks. The Nile views from the rooms are breathtaking, especially at sunset. The space is clean, spacious, and well-maintained with modern amenities. I loved having access to a fully equipped kitchen and a cozy, inviting living area perfect for relaxing or meeting fellow travelers. Kareem, the owner, goes above and beyond—he’s friendly, knowledgeable, and always ready to help. The vibe here is warm and welcoming, making it feel like home. This isn’t just a hostel; it’s a real experience. I’ll definitely be back and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Cairo.
The suite was absolutely massive—literally oversized in every way. The living area and balcony were so spacious they felt more like a luxury penthouse than a hotel room, and having a full kitchen and laundry room made it incredibly convenient for longer stays. Honestly, the bedroom felt a bit smaller by comparison, but that’s just a minor detail when everything else is this impressive. Located right in the heart of Cairo along the Nile River, the hotel offers unbeatable convenience and safety. You’re steps away from major attractions, yet still enjoy a peaceful riverside vibe. The views at night are stunning, and walking around the area feels secure and relaxed. This place is a top-tier choice for anyone visiting Cairo. I’d definitely come back here on my next trip—without a doubt, one of the best value stays I’ve had in Egypt.
We booked a room at Venus Hostel just to store our luggage and freshen up before boarding the Watania Sleeping Train to Luxor later in the afternoon. The location was tricky to find—no clear signage, and the entrance didn’t make a great first impression. The elevator was in poor condition, which raised some concerns. However, once we reached the upper floor, the staff were friendly and welcoming, making the stay more pleasant despite the building’s quirks. The room was minimalist but clean, and the bathroom was spotless. We didn’t get a chance to test the bedding since we had a tight schedule. One downside was the noisy environment—especially noticeable at night. Still, the area is close to several restaurants, so dining options are convenient. Overall, it’s a practical choice for travelers on a tight timetable, especially those heading out overnight. While not luxurious, the hostel offers solid value for its purpose.
My stay at Longchamps Zamalek was absolutely fantastic. The room was spotless and incredibly comfortable—hands down the best bed I experienced throughout my entire trip across Egypt, which included five different hotels. The cleanliness of the entire property stood out, making it feel like a true boutique retreat. Breakfast was exceptional—fresh, delicious, and far superior to any other hotel breakfast I had during my visit. The owners were warm, welcoming, and genuinely attentive; they even offered German Christmas cookies, which added such a thoughtful touch. Located right in the heart of Zamalek, the hotel is perfectly positioned near restaurants, shops, and attractions—ideal for exploring Cairo on foot or by metro. I was sad we only stayed one night, but if I ever return to Cairo, this will be my first choice. A truly memorable experience with outstanding value.
Staying at The St. Regis Cairo was an absolute highlight of my trip—far beyond what I expected. The breakfast view overlooking the Nile River was pure magic, making every morning feel like a scene from a luxury magazine. The hotel radiates old-money elegance with impeccable architecture and refined details throughout. Facilities are top-notch, service is discreet yet attentive, and the overall atmosphere feels timeless and sophisticated. This has easily become my Hotel of the Year. Honestly, it’s in a completely different league compared to the St. Regis Shanghai—this one truly stands out. If you're choosing between this and the Waldorf, skip the latter. The difference isn’t just subtle—it’s massive. For anyone looking for unmatched luxury and unforgettable ambiance in Cairo, this is the place.

The location is fantastic—right in the heart of Zamalek, a vibrant neighborhood full of expats and a great mix of culture and charm.

I especially loved the rooftop bar and restaurant: the food was delicious, creative, and well-prepared, and the views over the Nile at sunset were absolutely breathtaking. It’s the perfect spot for a relaxing evening drink or dinner with a view. While breakfast was modest, it was still satisfying and adequate. Overall, the hotel has such a fun, welcoming vibe that makes you feel instantly at home. If you're looking for a stylish, centrally located stay with excellent service and a touch of elegance, this place is a must-try.
Staying at Hilton Cairo Zamalek Residences was an absolutely fantastic experience. The front desk staff were incredibly welcoming and friendly, making check-in a breeze—plus they spoke English fluently, which made communication smooth and stress-free. Breakfast was excellent: fresh, varied, and delicious. I especially appreciated the quality and range of options. The location is unbeatable—right next to a metro station and close to major landmarks, so getting around downtown Cairo was quick and easy.

My stay at Fairmont Nile City was absolutely outstanding—exceeded all expectations! Upon arrival around 3 PM, my room wasn’t ready yet, but the staff kindly escorted me to the lounge where I was treated to a complimentary drink while waiting. That level of care made the wait feel seamless. The mini-bar in the room was fully stocked with free snacks and beverages—although it’s typically replenished after three nights, they actually restocked it by the second day, which was impressive. I left a 50 EGP tip for one of the front desk staff, expecting it to be taken immediately, but surprisingly, it wasn’t collected until my final day. That small gesture really stood out—it showed genuine professionalism and thoughtfulness. The river view from my upgraded room was breathtaking, and the location is super convenient for public transit. This hotel offers exceptional value and service. Definitely coming back next time.
Staying at Colour Holidays was a pleasant surprise in terms of location—everything in central Cairo is within walking distance, making it incredibly convenient for exploring the city without relying on taxis or public transit. The price point is excellent for what you get, offering great value for money. That said, the property does show its age with some outdated decor and signs of neglect in maintenance. However, the potential is undeniable—the rooms are clean, the staff are friendly and helpful, and the overall vibe has charm. With a little investment in refurbishment and upkeep, this place could easily become one of the most loved budget-friendly stays in the area. It’s not perfect, but definitely worth considering if you're looking for a simple, well-located base in Cairo.
This stay was absolutely excellent—I’ll definitely be back! The hotel is perfectly located just a short walk from the city center, with easy access to public transit and plenty of nearby dining options. The room was clean, spacious, and well-appointed, with a comfortable bed that made for a restful night’s sleep. The staff were friendly and attentive without being intrusive. It’s rare to find such a great balance of comfort, convenience, and value in Cairo. I’d highly recommend this place—definitely my top pick for future visits.
