古い歴史あるビルを利用してるホテルなので、設備は古かったですが、テレビも冷蔵庫もあり充実していました。 トイレットペーパーもあり、シャワーもしっかりお湯が出ました。 アメニティに歯ブラシはありませんでしたが、シャンプー、ボディソープはあり。 そして何より、スタッフの皆様のサービス精神が素晴らしく、居心地は良かった。 カイロ最大の繁華街に面してるので、夜は騒がしいけど、交通面も治安も良かったです。 次回も利用します。

Amazing little hotel tucked away and private. I can’t express enough how wonderfully we were looked after. Family run business, we were treated with so much care and respect. We were helped with tours and transport and nothing was too much to ask. Costing was reasonable. I would definitely stay again.

The staff in this hotel are extremely nice and very helpful. Lovely, high-ceilinged and spotlessly clean bedroom with a balcony in a characterful building in downtown Cairo. The location is very convenient, being only a ten-minute walk from the Museum of Antiquities and on a street with easy access for taxis or tour pick-ups. I'm happy to recommend this very reasonably-priced and welcoming hotel to other travellers.

This was an absolutely wonderful hotel. What I love the most about this hotel was the hospitality of the staff, especially the owner, MR.Philip. Although I had to travel between the airport and the hotel alone,the owner, Philip himself, kindly picked up for me. Every time I returned to the hotel from sightseeing, Mr.Philip and his wife would ask, "Happy?" It made me very relived, as if I were at my home in Cairo.While it's true that the outside can be a bit noisy, wearing earplugs solves any issue, and above all, this hotel offers a great sense of being comfortable. The breakfast they made was very delicious, and I enjoyed my meals on the lovely balcony. The furniture was charming as well. It's the kind of hotel that makes me want to return again. 最高に素敵なホテルでした。 特に素晴らしいのはオーナーのフィリップさんをはじめスタッフの人の温かさです。 空港⇔ホテルは１人で移動せねばならなかったのですが、 オーナーのphilipさんが送り迎えしてくれました。 観光からホテルに戻るたびにオーナー夫婦が「happy?」と聞いてくれて まるでカイロの家であるかのような安心感がありました。 たしかに少し外は賑やかですが、耳栓をすれば何も問題ないですし、とにかく安心感のあるホテルでした。 朝ごはんも手作りでおいしかったですし、素敵なバルコニーでご飯が食べられました。 家具もかわいかったです。また戻ってきたいと思えるホテルでした。

I was a bit apprehensive staying in this hotel because of the street noise.The hotel offered me one of their rooms with less street noise. With the earplugs and the fan the noise practically fades away.The showers are really good.The beds are comfortable. All the staff are really nice and they arranged a guide for my trip to the pyramids, and also a taxi to the airport.They provided me with a hairdryer. kettle and you can get coffee for 95EGP near there. There is a lovely Italian restaurant Padellaccio up the street from the hotel. I love the old building style and high doors.Overall, I was delighted with my choice to stay in a low cost hotel in the heart of it all.

Incredible stay! Great location, very walkable (once you get the hang of plying frogger.) The owner and his family and employees went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable. ThIts unbeatable for the price! Just remember its got boutique vibes, you're not paying for a resort. I enjoyed my stay so much that i booked it again coming back into the city!

The room is spacious and clean. The host is friendly. The hotel is located in the heart of Old Cairo which is very convenient for visitors (a 10-minute walk to the old Egyptian museum and Abou Tarek). Nothing more I could ask for with such a reasonable price.

The owner made sure that his guests felt welcome and comfortable. Was helpful in arranging tours and transportation. The outside of the building is average, but the room was very clean. It was an excellent deal for the money spent.

Das Zimmer ist ziemlich heruntergekommen, wie man das bei dem Preis aber realistischerweise auch erwarten sollte. Das Personal ist sehr hilfsbereit.

食事、買い物等は便利でした。部屋は普通、6人の家族旅行でした。ホテルの周辺で全てOKでした。スタッフは親切でした。 イスラムなのでお酒はダメですが、近くにアルコール販売の店も有りました。両替も有りました。場所的には良かったです。

It was a nice stay. The room was pretty basic but had what we needed. Bathroom felt old and in need of a bit of a spruce up. If you struggle to sleep in noise then this place is not for you. Downtown Cairo is bustling and busy and you can hear everything from the street. The team were friendly and helpful.

Very good hotel near Tahrir Square and the Egyptian Museum. Owner and staff were very friendly. Room had two balconies, Comfortable bed, strong AC (and a fan too). Bathroom recently remodeled. Arranged a day trip to Alexandria with great driver. My only criticisms were the water in the shower was only lukewarm and when traffic is busy you can hear some car horns. Great value for the price and location!

ein einfaches Hotel im Zentrum der Stadt. Gut gelegen in der Nähe der Metro. Ein Aufzug bringt einen nach oben in den 3. Stock. Das Zimmer war sauber und groß mit schönen alten Möbeln plus Kühlschrank, was bei der Hitze sehr gut ist. Auch das Bad war sauber, allerdings merkte man, dass die Armaturen nicht mehr die neuesten sind. Alles in allem ein gutes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis

This is an old office building and has hotel on 4th floor, first it is difficult to find the hotel, second the entire building is very dirty filthy, dark no lighting, the elevator is very old style, takes time to learn, how to operate, inside room mosquito, cannot close bathroom door, cannot close the door to the balcony, no water no coffee maker, no dining option around. Best location to see downtown cairo. Will never go again.
