Cairo Marriott Hotel
Excellent staff, gorgeous grounds and pool area. Loved wrapping up our loud and busy Cairo days in the peace and beauty of the hotel courtyard. Plenty of outdoor seating in the gorgeous November weather.

Ramses Hilton
Good stay, except that the hotel breakfast was way too crowded to be enjoyable. The facility and staff aren't adequate to cover the morning demand for breakfast peak.

Comfort Inn Giza
We had some at the front desk when we first arrived that could have been avoided but after the issue was fixed, our stay was very nice. The room and bathroom was clean but the jet tub was clearly dirty. The views were great but the traffic noise could be a lot if you’re not used to it.
