On reflection, I think Tripadvisor needs a 'hostel' section as well as hotel and B&B. This is definitely not a B&B in the sense I have become used to seeing reviewed in Tripadvisor.

Awesome service, the staff are friendly and helpful. Great Location in Cairo downtown. Breakfast is nice egyptian bread/jam and coffee which we were happy with. This is a budget hotel so hence the rooms need work but they are clean. My only issue was the bathroom which was too small. We aren't fussy though so we got over it quickly.... More

I've been traveling all around Egypt, staying in hostels at Luxor, Aswan and Dahab, definitely Alexander Hostel in Cairo is by far the best one! Friendly staff, clean rooms and bathrooms, accurate tourist information and a very good-central location in Cairo!

The people at the Hotel are very friendly, they helped out with any travel information that i needed and also helped with booking of tickets for further travel. They were helpful in teaching basic Arabic which made it easier and more fun for communication to the local people. Had alot of fun at Alexander Hotel and came back every time... More

Vacation in Egypt was my cherised dream, I could get a trip with my best friend. We had to be sure that everything was perfect since we come from Mexico City, from plane ticket, transportation, visits to touristic sites. I highlight the service we were provided in this hotel: cleanliness, facilities, and the warm and professional attention from all employees,... More
