I spend three nights in this hotel, during which I had very unpleasant experiences. The room was upgraded to nile view instead of a city view for free, so I cannot imagine what the inferior room would look like. The room furniture is in bad shape, all existing drawers did not slide out or in, some were broken, most were... More

This hotel with historic associations is, admittedly, looking a little tired (it will be undergoing major renovation soon). However, the location is absolutely fantastic, giving a wonderful view (particularly at night) onto the Nile which beats that offered by any of the monolithic 5 star hotels in the city. Staff were extremely helpful and spoke perfect English. A great little... More
