Reviews of Cairo Hotels »

Not a mirage, only the service disappeared Advantages: Beautiful building and surroundings, great facilities Disadvantages: Service was a mirage, outside the city The JW Marriott, Mirage City, Cairo is something more than a mirage. As we approached, two giant sandstone pillars loom to one side, replicas of ancient Egyptian construction, and I thought, "this could either be very tacky or very impressive". Well, I was very impressed by the hotel, the facilities, the design, but unfortunately the overall experience was a bit disappointing. Atleast, it was when I stayed there late in 2003. Sprawling around several ... ...first floor there is a JW Steakhouse which is very pleasantly atmospheric; the one time we ate there, however, it was disappointing as they didn't have any fillet steak (in a Steakhouse? Bah!) and would not allow any other steak to be used for the "Surf and Turf" that I wanted; the sirloin I had instead was about 30% fat and gristle. There is a Middle Eastern restaurant, Ahlein, on the first floor and a cigar & whiskey lounge. Off to one side, on ...

Hotel so close to the pyramids!! Advantages: location location location Disadvantages: further away from downtown this hotel is probably the most unique hotel in the world as it is the one which you wake u and can actually see the great pyramids from, so close that you think you can reach out and touch them!! ok not that close but you know what i mean. we stayed here and it is literally awesome how close you are to the pyramids, waking up and seeiing them in their glory, was fantastic. so in this respect, it is a fantastic place to stay. my advice would be ... ...couple or 3 days from your holiday base n egypt, then split cairo up into 2 parts. downtown where you are near the nile and the hubbub of the city. and Giza, where you see the pyramid, sphinx etc. at Giza, stay overnight in this hotel so you get the best location, at an affordable price. downsides are that when you book, be very specific about wanting a pyramid view room, as they may put you in a room overlooking the car park if your not specific. ... jamesbt 30.09.2007 · Read full review Ciao members have rated this review on average: helpful Review of Le Meridien Pyramids, Cairo	Value for Money Quality of Rooms Standard of Service Quality of Facilities
12 Hours in Egypt Advantages: Close to the Egyptian Museum and other interesting places Disadvantages: Compared to the other hotels it was on the expensive side - but well worth it We stayed at the Nile Hilton in Cairo for just 12 hours on the way back from a diving trip in the Red Sea. Even though we were only there for a few hours I was really impressed with the efficient and friendly service of the staff. I didn't have to lift a finger. We even got to experience a traditional Egyptian wedding that took place while we were there. If you are on the hunt for postcards, perfume, papyrus and other authentic Egyptian souvenirs ... ...us on this trip that found this out the hard way.) One last note, be very careful where you eat and what you drink, even in the hotels. Overall, being in Egypt and staying at the Nile Hilton was a great experience and I’ll do it again any day!!! ...

The Pyramisa Hotel Nightmare Advantages: A place to sit down in your room Disadvantages: I don't even want to start. There is absolutely nothing good about this hotel. ...dozen's that I have. The Pyramisa is one of the reasons that I would never travel back to Cairo due to it's lack of almost every hotel necessity. Firstly, it was almost impossible to sleep as there was no way to block out the sound through the windows of the highway you are sleeping over that has cars on it constantly. The food is absolutely terrible, as they serve the same dry food every night. It is oberpriced and the staff often try and cheat ...

First Residence is First Class Advantages: Unbelievably great service, opulent , great restaurants and facilities Disadvantages: none, except it is not free so you can't just live there I stayed here for four nights on my honeymoon and it is absolutely the best hotel in Cairo in my opinion. Actually not just mine - travelling business class I was waiting in the check in line talking to someone who lived in Cairo checking in first class who asked me which hotel and immediately said - "oh, that's the one" when I told them this one. There are two Four Seasons Hotels in Cairo - this is the newer of the two I think. It wasn't cheap ... ...nothing I have ever experienced. Example: I was reading my book on a sun lounger by the pool - they have pool waiters for drinks, towel check people who give you a special sheet-type towel to go over your sun lounger with a pocket for the head cushion, and another towel to dry yourself with, they bring you sun cream if you ask etc etc. Then since when I sipped my drink I put my book down open and face down on the table beside me, someone brought ... sadoldbag 23.01.2008 · Read full review Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of Four Seasons Hotel Cairo at the First Residence, Cairo	Value for Money Quality of Rooms Standard of Service Quality of Facilities
