We spent 2 nights at this hotel as a part of a Gecko tour, Nile Escape. We had no problems. Our tour leader was great and would have helped us if there were any problems. Our room was recently renovated--it had a fresh paint smell. I discovered that Gecko/Imaginative Traveler has two levels of 3 star accommodations. Even though we... more

The Pharoahs hotel was not the greatest hotel I have stayed in by far. I stayed there as part of my Gekko tour, and I booked one night on either side to extend my stay a few days. My first room on the 9th floor was not the greatest by far. It had a corner window that faced some very... more

Stayed 2 nights in 2 different rooms as part of an organised tour. The first room had bathroom, curtains, aircon and tv that looked like they had never ever been cleaned. The TV remote looked like it had been fished from the local rubbish dump. The Second Room was slightly better, looked cleaner and newer but TV in equal shambles.... more

We stayed in three different rooms in the hotel over a total of four nights connected with an Intrepid tour. Our first room, on the third floor was extremely dirty and had a window that wouldn't close and an air conditioner that was missing part of the baffle between the inside and the outside so traffic noise was quite loud... more

We only stayed here as part of an Intrepid tour. I had looked at the reviews and booked at a different hotel for our first night in Cairo, even though we were only there for one night and it meant changing hotels, this was a wise decision. I would only stay here if a tour was paying. We stayed in... more

I could not wait to leave the place. 1) location is on the wrong side of the river for tourist activities 2) the... more

We chose the Pharaohs Hotel in Dokki because of the location, which was recommended to us. However the hotel was very disappointing. The rooms are extremely dilapidated and many of them are very depressing. The walls are patchy and discolored, tiles cracked, bathrooms leaky. We had to be moved twice in order to finally get a room that had all... more

We stayed at Pharoahs hotel for a total of three nights in September 2009 as part of an organised tour. We stayed in two different rooms at this hotel - the first up high on floor 9 with a Nile view, but the airconditioner, although it made an incredible amount of noise, did not actually blow out any cold air.... more

Pharoahs Dokki Hotel cant be beaten for the service and helpfulness of ALL Staff.. I had a ball, and having my room, loo and bathroom cleaned daily, let alone bed made also was a bonus. The food is great also when the (unusual is available) . The position cant be beaten I USED TO LOVE IT AT NIGHT AND MORNINGS... more
