My wife and I chose Cairo Downtown based on the reviews we've seen on this site. Quite frankly, those are almost all true: amazing service, very nice rooms, clean, great location. I wanted to point out, however, the extent to which the staff will attempt to make your stay perfect. My wife and I both ended up having horrible food... More

The Down Town Hotel is a small establishment on the third floor of a block of grand old apartments. The location could hardly be better. It's just off Tahrir Square, with loads of cafes, juice bars and restaurants where Cairo people like to "hang out". The Egyptian Museum is only 5 mins walk away, as are the Nile bridge and... More

This hotel and its staff are unforgettable. I was picked up at the airport, though my flight was two hours late, and made to feel welcome & secure at every turn. The owner provided me with everything I needed for my stay in Cairo from a tour book to a locally based cell phone. Mohamed and Walid went above and... More

I completely loved this place, especially if you're on a budget. I could see anybody coming to this place. I went with my mother and future mother-in-law and we had a ball! Every morning they fed us breakfast which we ate on their balconies. We also had some clothes washed, very cheap. The best part was the people that worked... More

The hotel is very good for it's price. We recommend you buying the trip to Memphis, Sakkara, Dahshur and Giza with camel ride at the reception desk - it was really interesting and fun.We have nothing unfavourable to say. Maybe one thing - don't get suspicious when you see the entrance ;)

This hotel is centrally located at the heart of Cairo within walking distance to Tahrir Square and Egyptian Museum, which is what I need. Access to restaurants and money changers is really easy. The room is clean, spacious and cozy. Bed is really comfortable. The staff are very friendly and helpful and they are not pushy in selling you tours.... More

Upon climbing several flights of colonial steps, you enter the warm and friendly charm of CDH. The owners are genuine and helpful and the facilities excellent. Most importantly, the beds are comfortable. It's a shame so many tourists are being put off Cairo at the moment, reports of trouble are greatly exaggerated. Excellent location, being just off Tahir Square. If... More

I stayed here a few nights before moving into an apartment in Giza near the pyramids. You can't go wrong here. The only thing is the entrance is hard to find but fortunately most people speak some english and they'd be happy to show you. Also, being on one of the busiest (and loudest) streets in Cairo, the rooms are... More
