Reviews and Ratings
I had a delightful stay at this hotel. The rooms were clean, cozy, and offered a beautiful view. The friendly staff made our time in Egypt truly memorable. However, the location was not ideal for exploring without a car or tour; it is very close to the airport, though.
I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The rooms were spacious, clean, and comfortable, though there was an issue with cleanliness that wasn't fully addressed by the reception. The service was exceptional, with truly friendly and helpful staff. The location, while safe and close to the airport, was not very convenient for exploring tourist areas without transportation. The dining experience was a mix of positive and negative, with some delicious options but also room for improvement.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The spacious rooms were clean and comfortable, but unfortunately, the cleanliness level inside the rooms was terrible. The service was generally helpful and supportive, especially Neyara from guest relations who was very attentive during my short one-night stay. The hotel's location is convenient for those needing easy access to the airport, but not ideal for those looking to explore the area on foot. The dining experience offered a variety of delicious options, although some dishes could use a bit more flavor. While the facilities were adequate, there were noticeable cleanliness issues with the rooms.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. On one hand, the location is really close to the airport and easy to reach via Uber or taxi, plus the staff, especially Basant and Radwa at the reception, were friendly and nice. On the other hand, the room I initially booked turned out to be a small chalet without WiFi service, which was disappointing. However, the service was amazing with the staff being very helpful and accommodating to any requests.
The hotel offers spacious and comfortable rooms with double pane glass keeping the room quiet, and the service was super friendly. However, the location is far from the city center, requiring the use of transportation, and the dining could be more flavorful. Overall, great value for money.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. Although the room smelled like cigarette smoke and the chalet I booked was smaller than expected with no WiFi, the staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating. The location, while close to the airport, was far from major tourist spots, making it a bit inconvenient for sightseeing without a car. The dining experience was average with room for improvement in terms of variety for international guests.
