The hotel had its flaws but also some highlights. The rooms did not live up to the standard we expected, feeling dark and not very clean. The location, although close to the pyramids, was in a noisy, busy area without much around. The dining experience left much to be desired, with poor quality and crowded meal times. On the upside, the service was friendly, and the facilities were satisfactory.

Upon arrival, I had to wait for the rooms for two hours, which was a bit of a hassle. The rooms themselves had issues with the safe box and phone not working, and there was a noticeable dust smell. Additionally, the sight of old mattresses in the hallway wasn't welcoming. The service from the front desk staff was commendable, especially during peak booking times, as they handled our special requests with politeness. The hotel's location offers a beautiful view of the pyramids, although the busy junction nearby causes quite a noise and air pollution. The dining experience had a few hiccups with unclear plate clearing and food turnover, but the crêpes were a delightful surprise. The facilities generally seemed well-maintained. The staff were very welcoming and friendly. However, the noise and air pollution from the nearby junction detracted from the overall experience.

The hotel offers awesome rooms in tip-top condition at a great price compared to other surrounding hotels, though some unnecessary noise can be a downside. The service is top-notch and caters to every request, resembling a 2-star more than a 5-star hotel, but they make great Mojitos. The location is very good for tourism, especially for visiting the Giza Pyramids and Sphinx, but noise and air pollution can be issues. The dining experience provides good choices but lacks cleanliness at peak times, resembling 'Fawlty Towers. '

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were not clean enough, with issues like open carpet and bath areas; the room service accidentally locked me in, and the second room I was given was full of smoke and not ready for check-in, wasting my time. On the positive side, the hotel provided a complimentary upgrade with a lovely view of the pyramids, and the service was friendly despite some delays. The location was convenient for visiting the pyramids, but the dining experience left much to be desired with slow table turnover and disappointing food choices.

The hotel had a great view of the pyramids, offering spacious rooms with all necessary amenities. However, the overall decor was a bit dated, reminding of its former beauty. The service was mixed with some staff being very helpful and kind, while others were inefficient and made up stories to cover up. The location was marvelous with pleasant lifeguards, but somewhat far from central Cairo and Giza. The dining options were nice but repetitive, and the leisure facilities like the swimming pool and gym added value to the stay.

The hotel is conveniently located near the Giza Pyramids and Sphinx, making it ideal for sightseeing in the area. The rooms, while generally good, could use some extra attention as the carpets appeared a bit dirty in places. The service provided was friendly and accommodating, but there were some minor issues with luggage service coordination. Dining options were a mix of continental and local cuisine, with room for improvement in the breakfast selection. The facilities were satisfactory overall.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the Christmas Theme in the room was a nice touch, the room itself had some issues like a delayed morning cleanup and doors that didn't lock properly. The location near the Pyramids was convenient, but the noise from sanding work in the evening was bothersome. The dining options were above average for the price, but not exceptional.

During our Webjet organized tour, our family suite in 2020 was very clean, with clean towels and a nice view. The hotel offers a great standard for the price paid, but the service might not be up to par as one of the staff members left six months ago, although the management was helpful and cooperative. The location is excellent, especially for sightseeing near the Giza pyramids; however, it can get crowded with people trying to get a signal. The dining experience had a good selection of tasty food, but the facilities may need some refurbishment.
