The hotel, the place and the view are amazing . The staff is very kind ans attentionned. Restaurants La Palmeraie and Kebabgy are delicious. The club millésime have also a very high level of service. The breakfast in le Sud was goergous. The Spa, the swimming pool and the fitness are fantastic.We had really a very good experience with a spécial touch with the concierge who helped us also to have very good time outside the hotel! We will definetively come again.

The Breakfast was Amazing, so was the Dinner Restaurant right beside the Nile. Only the quantity of the Meat was a little to less I would have liked more Meat on the table.
The bread is House Made and fresh therefore the taste is great. Overall I was very satisfied with my stay.

The Nile location greatly contributed to the user experience. The staff was friendly and responded immediately to every request. After 2007, it would be time for another renovation of the rooms and the pool area, as these areas are showing some weaknesses. It should be noted that despite this, cleanliness was always maintained, and the cleaning staff did a good job.

Lobby has a really disgusting odor like sewer mix with perfume, rooms are not soundproof at all, you can hear all the music and loud noise from clubs around and nile river boats! 6/10

Noisy at night. If you need total quietness, make sure you get a very high floor.

No matter what the property offers the incompetence and the rudeness of the staff especially at the desk the check-in and the checkout is just horrendous and that affected everything.

One star is more than enough for the level of service.they kept me till after 5 to check me in and made all kinds of excuses ,and when confronted they just started smirking ,it made me feel that they are used to dealing like that with their guests .
At the end I got a bill for over $130 for some chocolate and chips from my fridge ,not including any alcohol and when I told the staff checking me out ,some guy called Samer I got another dirty laugh and not even a hint of wanting to try to do something.
Overall a nasty stay

Sofitel is amazing. I would go back for the view alone. It was breathtaking. But, the staff were also amazing, so friendly and helpful and always a cheerful smile. They make the stay perfect.
My room on the 9th floor was fabulous. Spotlessly clean and a good size. The pillows must be the softest in the world. I had the best sleep ever. I loved looking out at the city and the Nile in the morning and at night. It was truly amazing. The food and service at Sofitel is second to none. And to dine right by the Nile, 👌. I didn't get to the spa this time round but there is so much on offer I will definitely be booking a few treatments on my next visit. I did spend a little time by the pool which was fabulous. My trip was short but I enjoyed every minute of it thanks to the team at the fabulous Sofitel. I will be back.

Absolutely outstanding in every way. The views, rooms, staff, lounge areas, and location for getting around Cairo. The restaurants are also excellent. Highly recommend the chicken tangine.

Rooms are outdated and not worth the price.

When critiquing a property I always put context first. Cairo is a large, bustling, in-your-face city. An assault on your senses in every way. So of course, keeping in mind that in mind when assessing the hotel. At the same time, when you deem yourself a 5 star hotel and charge prices higher than most hotels in Cairo, that comes with a set of expectations. And those were not met. The service has A LOT to learn. Bags were misplaced, orders and requests needed to be put in 4-5 times before they arrived, half the time the staff was somewhat nice (although incompetent) but there were more than a few occasions where they were flat out rude. Especially waiters. As a group of women at a table, we noticed groups of men getting much better, timelier and more attentive service. Female staffers were better. Male staffers, mostly rude. I would think twice before staying here again. Overall, I feel like the entirety of the staff needs to be retrained.

Thank you to Ahmed Shandawili and the wonderful hotel team. We had a very memorable anniversary experience, everything was fantastic. We really appreciate the extra effort and care. We would definitely visit again and recommend to others. It’s definitely worth it!

Hotel is nice but definitely outdated or difficult to navigate. Restaurants are nice and food was good but staff was average at best, at least our server was. You meed reservations for all the restaurants which is nice but can also be difficult. Room service staff was great!
8.0
The hotel facilities and views from this hotel are amazing! Still, I wish we would have known that the hotel is close to many night clubs in the area so you could hear the music all night long. If you would like to party this is the best place to be, but we came with a small child and had troubles sleeping.

The hotel was very pretty, well maintained, and safe.

The hotel is very well located in Cairo and has a beautiful view of the Nile. The staff is super friendly and attentive. The breakfast is varied and they also had typical Egyptian specialties. The 3 restaurants are super tasty and we recommend the Grill enough! The room service was also on point. The only downside were the noisy events on Friday and Saturday until late at night. We definitely recommend this hotel!
