Osiris says it's an hitel but is only, officially, a place there they hire rooms.
Hotel is an official recognition from the egyptian authorities. And they don't have that. That alo means that in cause of trouble, you can do nothing because it' a non official place.
Poor breackfast, very expensive options, some rooms without bathrooms, it's a very expensive place, you can fine very better, offcial hotel for less.

Reacting on the below comments, I think the hotel is a real haven.
Free from obnoxious 4 star service, free from TV and genuinely oriented towrd welcoming tourist in a friendly & honest way.
I even stay there for business trips. Management is very flexible and can arrange reliable taxi service for the full stay with their own drivers at unbeatable prices.
A must.

They charged me for 4 night's even I did not like the place and I did not stay there and I went to another 3 stars hotel.

Don't not stay at this hotel...Its not a 3 star at all its very run down Hostel it has dirty entrance and scary elevator. we reserved the hotel in November through Egyptian travel agency and we have paid 4 nights in advance and they cheated us and we did not get our money back 120 euro we have paid and they said it high season which is not at all ands we moved to another fantastic 3 stars hotel president Zamalek

very good value for money, extremely clean, quiet (12th floor so you dont hear the street as much), the management is very helpful in giving advice or arranging tickets and tours, their prices are fair and the service excellent. When they sent us on a tour, they checked with us the whole way to make sure everthing went according to plan. they take ...

I stayed at the Hotel Osiris for a week in July this year (2006) and can recommend it without hesitation. The accommodation was excellent. The bedrooms and bathrooms were spotlessly clean, and the in-house dining facilities were great - fabulous food! The hotel is also very conveniently located in downtown Cairo, close to major attractions and ...

Like the other reviews here, I found the Osiris to be a very clean and friendly place to stay. The food from their kitchen was excellent, and the staff very helpful and pleasant. Nabil, the co-owner with his wife, was an exceptional host. The location couldn't be better if you want to be in the heart of the city. It is close to a number of ...
