The location of the hotel was good – it’s in the embassy area and there were plenty of restaurants within walking distance. We found the staff very friendly. There was one elevator only. We stayed in two separate one, one with single king bed and one with two single beds. The one with a single king bed faced the garden which was quiet. There was a long working bench behind the bed and power outlet on both side of the bed. The other room with two single beds faced the street, and was more spacious than the one with a single king bed. The twin bed room was noisy with noise coming from the restaurants next to the hotel until late. In this month, there was scheduled outage of electricity from 8-9pm, and this hotel went completely dark, as it had no backup power for the room. We stayed for two nights and in the first night we sat in the lobby of its sister hotel next door for an hour, and on the second night we went out for dinner. The room in this hotel actually was newer than its sister hotel next door, and the beds more comfortable.

Stayed for a week in Cairo at President Hotel with breakfast included. We had a view towards the Nile which was very nice and all the rooms are on the top floors. Breakfast was quite nice where they can make all sorts of eggs on the spot, and if you have an early excursion before they open, they are also able to make breakfast boxes for you. Attentative and friendly staff, and Abd Elhalim in the reception was very helpful in organising a new tour within an hour when our travel agency cancelled our trip to Alexandria on the day.

Rooms are quite okey, though cleaning could be a bit better considering we were there for 7 days. First on the 6th day our floors were properly cleaned and linen were changed. All in all a good stay with value for the money! Zamalek is a nice and very safe area where you can walk around on your own without any issues 😊

The hotel is in a good location and the room was clean, the bed comfortable. If you ask, you can get eggs cooked fresh for breakfast.
However, I requested a superior room because the room details stated that superior rooms have a balcony, and mine did not. This was very disappointing since this was the only reason I requested a superior room. Instead, it had a kitchenette which is strange and made it feel like a self contained apartment rather than a superior room in a hotel. I would have been better off with a regular room.
Not long after I arrived, after waiting almost an hour past checkin time as the room was not ready, foul smelling water poured from an outlet under the sink, although I had not turned on the tap. The maintenance man did not listen when I explained where the water was coming from and that I had not turned on the tap, and instead fixed what would have been another problem had I done so, the broken pipe leading from the sink to the outlet above where the water came from. He also fixed a blockage which may have temporarily solved the mystery water issue. A young man came and carefully mopped the floor with antiseptic and clean water, but the smell lingered in the kitchenette for the duration of my stay, which fortunately was only one night.
When I went to have a shower I found the hot water was barely lukewarm, not matter how long I let the tap run for. There was no hot water in this room the entire stay.
Overall, it was overpriced for what I got, even for Zamalek.

180$ per night for a very small normal room !!
No breakfast included!
Booked at this hotel for 3 nights, when I reached the hotel and saw how small and normal the room is for such fee, I went directly to the reception and told them I wanna cancel the reservation cz It’s not what I expected. They said okay no prob but there is a cancellation fee which is 122$, so If you want you can stay the night and pay the fee so you won’t lose it.
We stayed me and my friend, the second day they come and say we need 67$ more !!!
So basically the room is for 190$ (more than its own price) !!!!!!!!

This Hotel have a great Location in Cairo Centre, with 3 top floors of building in Zamalek area. As it is so old it needed full renovation which has been going for over 5 years and still going on. You will find knocking on walls all day long and encounter with Labour workers carrying bags flowing dust all over the hotel. Actually I was surprised with this renovations still going on as the reservations have confirmed that it is finished!!!! But it isn't. The problem is that all Beds mattresses, pillows and sheets have a brown color and large spots on them on top of that me and my family left the hotel this morning with Bug bites all over our bodies. This is serious matter and I wouldn't recommend to go there until you hear from someone that they like the place

Dear Ihab, thank you for your review. Bed bugs are a very serious issue in our industry today. This is not a subject to be taken lightly and one that is acted on immediately. Although we have our hotel inspected regularly for any evidence of bed bugs, we also follow up immediately on any guest concern. Unfortunately, we did not hear from you during your stay and only after your check-out we received your feedback via phone call. Then our contracted pest control provider was called on site. The pest control company did a thorough and documented inspection of the room along with hotel staff and found no evidence of any stage of a bed bug. Moreover, we would like to highlight that you stayed in one of our fully renovated rooms (311) where all furniture, beds, mattresses, and linen are new. We appreciate and are thankful for the concern and awareness of our travelers which would enable us to eliminate a problem immediately should it arise. We will continue to immediately act on even the slightest concern of any of our guests in this serious matter. We will also continue to support the findings of the professionals we hire to handle any pest control situations. Kind regards, The President Hotel, Cairo Team

The staff are so friendly and attentive. Very well priced Delux Studio (including a kitchenette) which is great for short and longer trips. Super comfy bed, lots of work and desk space plus a little dining table in the room. The WiFi works well enough for online work and is great considering it is free. Nice location with coffee shops and supermarkets within walking distance. Would definitely stay again and just extended my stay as it's so lovely!

This 3 star hotel we stayed in was for a night because our other hotel that we had booked in was not available for one night only dueing our trip, to cut it short the day of check out we had gone out in the morning to have breakfast and when we came back to check out we came to know that both of us friends who were in two different rooms had some money missing from our saftey box as we randomly counted them before leaving. Anyways the duty manager there did nothing to help he said that he checked the cameras in corridors and no one had entered our rooms. To cut it short my rooms safe box at my arrival was not working and when i asked the receptionist to get it fix he came with a box full of keys and had reset it and left and the sexond day this happened.

Even the taxi we had asked to pick us took us directly to the way to airport while we hadn’t told them too so when we asked him he is going to the wrong way he said that the guy at the hotel said you are going to the airport as i think they thought we are going back home to our country.

This is just a bad experience but definitely true as we both friends in different rooms got some money missing from our saftey box.

Please be careful thats is my message.

From the warm greeting upon arrival, our stay at President was fantastic. Located in the quiet area of Zamalek, the hotel offers a respite from the busy Cairo streets, while being a walking distance to excellent restaurants. You don't even have to go far for options, the hotel has charming restaurants and a cellar bar, with Japanese and continental restaurants next door.

Our rooms were very clean and comfortable, with strong pressure in the shower. The room is very modern and has all the modern conveniences.

The staff are all incredibly friendly and helpful. Whether delivering laundry or arranging our airport transfers.

The hotel is only a 5 min walk to reach the Nile promenade. You can meander along to any of the restaurants overlooking the water. Highly recommended.

With a couple of friends, we stayed at the President Hotel in October for a total of 3 nights, the hotel in itself was a major success, despite being quite low key online.
The neighborhood it's located in is very secure and calm, Zamalek overall is a nice part of the city, with many places to visit, and cute hidden gems.
The room we stayed in was spacious, clean, and well-maintained; and the room-service was excellent.
If there was one thing to be brought up as a downside, it would definitely be the Pyramids tour we had the misfortune of going through with the agency they work with.
However, after having reported the horrendous experience we went through to the reception, our complaint was taken seriously immediately and the hotel managed a partial 45% refund of the money paid and apologized continuously for the inconvenience; kudos to Ahmad at the reception.
