“A wonderful experience”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 27, 2012

From the moment I checked in I knew I had come to the right place. The warm and friendly welcome was the start of a special week with experiences of Egypt increasing to magical levels day by day. Service was outstanding at anytime of day or night and all the staff were genuinely happy to be of service. The authentic food dishes were delicious and well presented.
Sitting quietly on the roof terrace taking in the wonderful views created a peaceful tranquillity.
I can honestly say that I had an experience of a lifetime and will definitely be returning.

“ALWAYS PERFECT....more than 5 STAR”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 23, 2012

As always even better than my previous stays....hotel, service, food and perfect extra tours and trips were created by a brilliant staff and team. Anything and everything you ask for is created. It is a brilliant base on the West Bank- my group of sixteen loved every minute. It just takes you right away from boring tourism...into a unique West bank experience to see more of real and authentic Egypt life. It was fantastic. I am visiting next month again...the kindness of the hotel is incredible..the service more than five star!

“Warm and beautiful, great stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 22, 2012

Hotel Sheherazade is a welcoming, clean and well looked after hotel, full of charm and efficiently run by a dedicated staff who are always happy to help. My room was spotless and I loved the fun ways my daily clean towels were folded like origami - an original design each day! Brilliantly located close to the river on the west bank, I loved sitting on the roof overlooking the Nile and listening to the call to prayer each day. A really wonderful stay and I would choose this hotel again.

“A must stay hotel!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 5, 2012 via mobile

This hotel is truly stunning but not offered by mainstream booking sites - it has its own website and worth looking at - rooms are very clean and very cheap but the experience is way beyond anything you'd find in a faceless western hotel and it's also set on the west bank away from the main tourist traps on the other side of the Nile. Access to west bank is quick via local ferry and the hotel is 5 mins away from the ferry terminal.

The staff are friendly and helpful and speak excellent English - you'll enjoy this and can't recommend it highly enough !
