Everyone was courteous and helpful. The room was great and the river view was amazing. The mini bar is overly expensive and not enough creamer. Kettle was cheap quality and pretty old. The reception is tight, pool area is pretty small, no green areas around and the roof top is paid to enjoy.

Our family of 4 with kids enjoyed our 4 nights at the Novotel. We came off an exhausting 14 hour layover and were happy with our suite. We were in a nonsmoking room facing the Nile on the 3rd floor and although we could hear some noise, it did not bother us. The view was amazing, the service was excellent, breakfast was good and the kids slept well on the pull out couch. We had a delicious meal at the rooftop restaurant. I would definitely stay here again when back in Cairo.

Good place to stay and enjoy!

This Hotel is near Cairo City Center but also accesible to go to other parts (as the pyramids) and also is clean and comfortable to stay after a full day of adventures outside. The food is good and the staff is very friendly. The rooftop bar/restaurant is amazing, just take note that they don't offer alcoholic drinks (in the whole hotel)
