This is my favourite hotel in Cairo. The staff are welcoming, helpful & friendly. I've stayed many times at The Windsor & am never disappointed. The room I had this time had just been repainted - a huge room with beautful antique furniture & a huge bathroom, all in period with the hotel's history. Breakfast is included & always served...

The Windsor hotel is an old yet charming place that will inspire. My significant other and I stayed for two days and while we were there we had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Samir Fayek and his son Mina. Samir arranged incredible tours for us around Cairo, Alexandria and even a cruise down the Nile, all with local tour guides... More

The Windsor is located on the wonderfully-named Alfi Bey (Lord Alfi) Street. Past crumbling examples of Khedive Ismail’s nineteenth-century building boom, we pulled up opposite an outdoor café filled with hookah-smoking men. Across the street, flanked by clusters of trees, an art-deco entranceway led into our port of call.    After stepping into the lobby, a dusky narrow space whose... More

He arranged our travel between these locations and had helpful, knowledgeable tour guides in each location to meet us. In particular Mina Samir was an excellent tour... More

We (three girls) stayed in Cairo for 3 nights at the Winsdor Hotel. The hotel is exactly how it is described, it is cool and interesting, especially the lounge area. More importantly, we were put in touch with a man at the hotel named Samir Fayek, who arranges private tours of virtually anything you would want to see in Egypt.... More

We stayed here in 2009 for a couple of nights and we were a bit shocked when we arrived. The hotel is in a rather unsafe area of Caro and our room was old, like rooms in the 1950s. I like old style if it's clean, however our room wasn't. The reception staff was just OK. The only positive thing... More

WINDSOR HOTEL is situated in the center of past and actual events you are looking for if you travel to cities like Cairo. The Doss family owns the Windsor. Wafik and... More

This hotel was built circa 1892, staying at the Windsor hotel is an experience of the real colonial past, if your looking for new plush surroundings this wont be for you. Not sure when the last make over was but I think they shouldn't change a thing its the real "macoy", I loved the old telephone system which must date... More

Windsor Hotel is truly run by a caring staff. Everyone at the front desk wants to make sure you have a good stay in Cairo. The restaurant/lounge bar has a "cool" vibe about it in this very old hotel. Plus the food was delicious (lots of vegetarian options) & the bar makes a great mojito. My only problem was the... More
