El Otel The Hotel
Kairo - Ägypten

The location is convinient, breakfast is tasty and huge (for me), falafel is the best! :)Rooms are comfortable and beds (mattress) are very good.The hotel guideline is adorable!All the staff is brilliant! All of them are very caring, friendly and helpful!

I stayed here for 4 nights across my week long trip throughout Egypt and gladly transformed a last minute booking into a what felt like a second home in Egypt.First off - the staff are absolutely amazing. Yousef, Helmy, and Mauka are sweet, caring, and so helpful and I can happily call them friends by the end of my stay (and already miss them <3). While I was traveling back and forth through the country, they let me keep my bags at the property and were always happy to give me recommendations or just chat! I've never met such a wonderfully friendly group of men anywhere I've stayed.The rooms themselves are well maintained, nicely decorated, and incredibly spacious. It's on the 5th floor of a building - similar to many other hotels in downtown Cairo so don't be dismayed when you first walk through the lobby. The rooms are gorgeous and a steal for the price. The breakfast was also delicious, very filling, ans incredibly prompt based on the time scheduled.The tours scheduled through the hotel were also the best ones I took during my stay in Egypt. They're well curated and hosted by kind, knowledgable guides with particularly strong English. I'd really recommend booking through the hotel vs. searching on other sites.Lastly, the location is perfect. You're an easy walk to major sites like the National Museum, well located to buses and transit, in an area near many cafes and shops and easy part of town to commute between neighborhoods.Could not recommend this place enough! Can't wait to come back to Cairo one day soon and stay again.

- great and helping people working there- the rooms and halls look amazing!- the place is clean, shower works great- nice Egyptian breakfast- good bed- great location so close to the center

Staff were young, smart, active, friendly, and so helpful. Especially, Mauka and Helmy are great. The housekeeper were nice and helpful. The building was old but well renovated. Toilet and shower room was shared but it was always clean and well maintained.

The room is simple but big and clean, provides good whites and beddings. Location good for shopping and transportation. The shared kitchen provides free teas.

The place was great, the room was amazing and it was super clean. The bathroom had ventilation so it doesn't keep the smells.The hosts were super nice! We spent some time talking to them and it was great!The breakfast was really good and they carry it to your room in the morning, we felt like princesses hahahaThe location was also great, you could go walking to some beautiful parts from Cairo.

Very cute room with small little details that were thoughtful. Lovely staff who were very helpful. Bathroom was incredibly cute and clean. Ideal location in the heart of the city, if you want a busy area to get a feel for Cairo life this is the place to stay. The room itself was quiet and the air conditioner was very appreciated. Very good value for price, would highly recommend.

It was a cozy hotel in the center of Cairo, located on the fifth floor of a building.The room was beautiful, clean, and nicely decorated. Just like the images.The employees were very nice and helped us with our needs.The breakfast was served on a tray every morning.The bed sheets and towels were also clean.
