The restaurant is world class (okay maybe not but really good for Cairo) I took some gastro risks with the menu over multiple days and always felt fine afterwards. Tell them Tom sent you when you ask for the Lemon Mint with Ice if you are brave.
Reception management.
Upon arrival They asked me to pay in Egyptian pounds and applied to themselfs a very favourable conversion rate (which I didn’t realise at the time, too naieve)
Shower had warm - hot - scalding but no cold.
Aircon did it best but was old and ineffective ( the quality you’d expect at a much cheaper hotel.)
On the day I was due to fly out my flight was delayed and a friend I had met allowed me to leave my bags in his room and have a shower. Reception wasn’t happy🤷♂️ I explained that the price my new friend paid for his room a three bed “single” was actually substantially more than the (live) booking.com price for two people but he wouldn’t hear about it.
My new friend then asked for a refund and said he would just rebook the room for two. (Impossible said the manager)
fine I will pay an extra person excess, he insisted I pay cash and double the (live price) just for an extra person in the room not even an extra room? Crazy?
I was on the booking.com app trying to just book the room and he kept trying to touch my phone (not sure why maybe to stop me booking and rob him of his ability of a quick cash bonus.
Upset that I dare get a good price went to the hotel police (located at every western hotel to stop Egyptian and non Egyptian mixed unmarried couples sharing a room) but thankfully the policeman just shook his head (realising that the manager was on a power trip)
I decided it was best to just go to the airport a few hrs early.
I was escorted to the room and quickly made to pack. I ended up leaving things behind.
The owner of the hotel seemed nice so I am assuming this was a rogue manager but your hotel is only as good as your staff.
I can’t recommend.
Check out my other reviews I like to think that I have always proven to be fair in the past.

The room was spacious , comfortable and clean, with a nice balcony. Staff are friendly and helpful.
The hallway noise can get quite loud and the sound seems to carry throughout the hotel.

The hotel restaurant view, breakfast buffet and restaurant staff were great. The bellboys were good. The bed in my 2nd room was comfortable.
The bed in my first room was hard as a rock. The bathroom showers were tiny and didn't drain well. The air conditioner leaked like mad and I had to use my towels on the floor to try to make sure the puddle didn't get too big. The room also was just on the borderline of clean enough/ a little grimy. When I switched rooms (not my decision, the hotel moved me as I was joining a tour group) I left a cloth laundry bag with dirty laundry including some expensive items in my first room and it disappeared. I understand I shouldn't have forgotten anything in room and ultimately the fault lay with me, but it was handled very poorly. The front desk staff kept telling me they had to talk to maid service but despite me asking multiple times over 2 days, they never followed up or were able to return my bag before I had to leave. I just felt like they were avoiding answering me and waiting for me to leave. If they had just told me that my bag was gone and apologized, this review would be probably a 7.

My expectations were rather low after all the bad reviews, but I found the hotel really ok. Nothing fancy, but everything ok and location is good. A bit noisy due to the traffic, but that's just Egypt. Arranged an aiport pickup through the hotel which worked out well.
