No maps and info available. Set me up with a terrible driver who argued with me the whole time to go shopping with him and my refusal to accept a 1 hour camel ride for 400 Le which I just walked away from. When I'd tell him he was wrong and yell at him for his unreasonable stupidity, he'd just... more

I found Nubian Hostel on hostelbookers.com and it was hard to believe how positive the comments were. I booked it thinking I didn't have much to lose. It's not a 5-star hotel, but heck it's clean and A/C and easy to get to (close to two Metro stops and the Egyptian Museum and lots of restaurants and shopping) and Mohammed... more

The rooms were adorable and very clean,AC work good,hot and cold water,TV with satelite...... more

My first review for Tripadvisor. Laziness usually prevents me from contributing to these sites but we had such a wonderful experience I wanted to share experience with others. Third trip to Egypt. Stupidly did not prebook accommodation before arrival. Both lonely planet recommendations where full. Hot and tired from the flight from Australia so succumbed to a hotel tout at... more

In the sweltering heat of September in Cairo, Nubian was an oasis of air con, large rooms, and friendly staff. We had to kill a lot of mozzies in the room, but slept comfortably otherwise. more
