Castles in Giza Governorate

"Worst airport transportation ever! Hotel arranged a morning private car to airport. Driver and I discussed going to terminal 3 at Cairo airport. We confirmed it was Egyptair international flight (which he says always goes out on terminal 3). Next thing I knew we were at the airport. He asked something unintelligible about luggage as if he didn’t want to take them out of the trunk which he later did. When I tipped him 200 Egyptian pounds he said “US dollar good; Egyptian money no good.” Next thing I found out he left me at terminal 2 instead of 3 and he had already taken off! Left stranded I had to walk through unmarked ramps and roads to get to terminal 3 with my wife and 4 pieces of luggage. Never will come back again. "

"The staff were excellent, genuinely friendly and always willing to go out of their way to help. The hotel even arranged a complimentary airport pickup for us. Our flight was delayed by over three hours, yet the driver remained patient and accommodating throughout. They also offer a range of tours and activities, including quad biking around the pyramids at sunset, which I would highly recommend. The hotel is located opposite the Grand Egyptian Museum, though I would suggest taking an Uber to get there as crossing the busy road can be difficult due to the central barrier. The surrounding area feels safe, although it is still developing. That said, it is easy to see how it will improve further as the area is prime location for development. "

"Great Location. Right next to the Pyramid Complex. 30 second walk to the main gate. The staff was friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. Great rooftop restaurant and views. "

"This is a 3* hotel with a soul! We are a senior couple that traveled back to Cairo after visiting 20 years ago, mainly to see the GEM. Proximity to the GEM was important to us. It was a 15-20 min drive depending on traffic. The staff here was terrific: Mohamed, Sara, Noor, Nada, Josef, they all were friendly and reached out to help whenever we needed something. Mohamed was excellent in arranging transportation and optional tours. And the price was right! The view from the lounge at the top and the excellent buffet breakfasts enhanced our stay."

"Stayed in a room with a balcony overlooking the pyramids and the view was truly unbeatable! The property is located on the street right off of the exit of the Giza pyramid plateau, so while we had a driver pick us up to get to the entrance for our sightseeing tour (10- minute drive) we were able to stay longer in the plateau area after our scheduled tour ended and then simply walked back 3 minutes on foot to the hotel, which was extremely convenient and saved us from having to find another ride back. The room was clean and modern-ish, though the bathroom could use a bit of work. The shower is not enclosed so water spills all over the floor and at times there was a funky smell coming from the drain in the bathroom. It is also worth noting that the street below the hotel room we were in was very busy and quite loud at every hour of the day, with lots of construction happening at night (10 pm - 3 am) and some music playing until fairly late. If you're a light sleeper, I would recommend bringing ear plugs. The breakfast buffet was solid and had many options (e.g. Egyptian dishes, rolls + pastries, yogurt, fruit, etc) and the staff was extremely friendly. Bottled water was free for guests which we really appreciated! Our favorite aspect of this hotel was the rooftop patio overlooking the pyramids, which was stunning both for morning breakfast and dinner. Dinner was a la cart, very reasonably prices, and very good. Would stay here again!"

"I really enjoyed my stay, especially the incredible view of the pyramids — it was truly special. The staff were kind, welcoming, and always helpful. The location is convenient for visiting the pyramids, the Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM), and is relatively close to Sphinx International Airport, which makes it a good value option for short stays and sightseeing. That said, it’s important to know what to expect: the neighborhood is quite loud, with barking dogs at night, and there is a noticeable amount of dirt and trash in the surrounding area. Giza has a very different feel compared to central Cairo. For getting around, I mostly used Uber, which worked well overall. However, it’s worth planning rides in advance, as occasionally drivers may ask for additional cash payments outside the app. In such cases, it’s best to stick to the agreed price in the app. Overall, a good value stay if you come prepared and know what to expect."

"Breakfanst buffet is poor as this level."

"Staff was friendly and helpful. We will stay again. I will recommend. Thanks "

"Great location right by Sphynx entrance . One of the nicer hotels near that spot. Good value for the money"
