this was the best hotel we stayed in in cairo,good rooms good service,great location with a view of the pyramids (when not hidden by smog)as taxis are very cheap in egypt it was a good location and well guarded as most hotels in egypt for tourist safety.as a family of five that stayed there we very much reccomend it as a place to stay.and if we are ever fortunate again to travel to egypt then will go back there.ps.they do good western breakfasts.
