The four of us enjoyed our stay. The hotel itself is just so-so . . . nothing special. Rooms are a little drab but one of the two rooms we stayed in had fantastic ocean views. It was as if we could see all of Alexandria from that balcony. A note about the beaches in front of the hotel: they... more

We booked this hotel through hotels.com one month prior to our trip. When we arrived, they informed us that because the hotel is under new management they canceled some reservations. The credit card we used to book online had been charged and was not credited so I asked if they could put us in another room for that price. The... more

I think "5 stars" might be pushing it a little, but all in all the Renaissance is a nice hotel. The staff were more than attentive, the room was clean, and the bathroom soaps had a pleasant fragrance. Room service was also not exorbitantly over priced, and the menu was not too shabby.

I stayed at the hotel on business for 50 days, as with most forgein hotels they will never be to the standards you would expect in yor on counrty. The rooms are well sized with very comfortable beds.

In the morning we went for breakfast, no napkins on the tables limited selection of food and what ever was available didn’t look... more

The Renaissance Alexandria was a lovely haven for me on my six-day stay in Alexandria. I was visiting the city doing research, and the hotel was in a perfect location for me. I did discover early on, that I was there during the busiest time of year for Alexandrians, since many people in Cairo take holidays during July and head... more

I just came back from the Renaissance Alexandria, as the organizer of a trip grouping 55 persons. I will just write about my (myself and my wife) personal experience, as others (even in our group) may have had a better one especially if ending with a room with sea-view. Arriving at the Hotel I was surprised to know that the... more

We took the train from Cairo to Alexandria eraly moring and got to the hotel around 10am. We had to wait for our room for about 2 hours, but we knew we would have to wait beacause we got in early. They gave us a room with an amazing beach and sea view . The room was nice, but not... more
