The atmospheric and comfortable rooms recalling colonial days pre-WW1, set in well-manicured gardens. Ma'adi is very removed from any commotion in Tahrir Square and is very safe. I think all rooms above ground floor have balconies complete with candles, which is a nice touch. This place is really a businessman's hotel and for those on expense accounts - it's seriously...

The building is nice the rooms are ok, very small tv, cold shower, sometimes no water. At breakfast the waiter basically didn't want us in there, he was very rude and the food was terrible absolutely terrible with hair inside yuk. Far too expensive for what it is. Service terrible like most of Egypt. Wine is disgusting. We left three... More

Our family three stayed 3 nights in mid July, 2012 at Villa Belle Epoque. We stayed almost a decade in Maadi, Egypt as ex-pats and it was our company that made reservation there as it was found safe, comfortable. I must say it was more of a residence than a hotel. The furniture in our room and its ambiance reflected... More

I have just stayed at belle époque for 4 days in May. This is a boutique hotel situated in Maadi near local police station and some embassies. It was an oasis away from the business of the city yet close enough to walk to local shops and some lovely restaurants. Lovely pool area and rooms are very comfortable and well... More

I stayed at this very friendly boutique hotel for a total of 4 nights in April 2012. The room was spacious, comfortable, clean and nothing was too much trouble for the staff. The food was good and the grounds of the hotel, (which is located in a quiet, leafy suburb in Maadi, Cairo), were kept in beautiful condition. It is... More

Stayed at the Villa Belle Epoque for a week during February 2012. The hotel is situated in a quiet street in Maadi. The rooms were very spacious, the staff were very friendly , had troubles with the Wi-fi, the hotel manager was very helpful to sort out the issue. Food at the restaurant is really good, the only downside is... More

Had a lovely meal in this very atmospheric Colonial type hotel in Cairo Both food and service were excellent. We were in transit between flights and therefore cannot comment on the accommodation but found the restaurant a very good place to eat. Would have no hesitation in recommending this place to other travellers.

Stayed at the Belle Epoque this February for a week. I mostly agree with other reviewers here, but want to add a few comments. First, on the location. Its on a quiet street in Maadi, a Cairo suburb, about 45 minutes from downtown depending on traffic. Its an easy metro ride that may be faster (and is definitely cheaper) then... More

The reality of the Belle Époque in Maadi is far removed from that promised. The following are just a few of our issues :- No friendly welcome, surely receptionist, dirty net curtains, expensive poor quality food (not the luxury cuisine promised in the Sunday Times review when it opened). Very limited hot breakfast consisting of tepid eggs and beans heated... More
