Not sure about the name shown here in TA but we just knew it as Pharaohs Hotel, Cairo. We stayed on two occasions during a tour of Egypt. The first time we were underwhelmed by our two rooms (for a family of four) on the 6th floor which were quite dark with no real view to speak of and the... More

Just to provide some context from the start, Pharaoh’s hotel is a 3 Star hotel and it will be rated as to how well it fares as such. The hotel is located on a small side street opposite the Sheraton in the Dokki area (in case your taxi driver from the airport has never heard of it). It is generally... More

We stayed there 4 nights in November. The rooms in the fifth floor were good and clean, good breakfast and the hotel had a local feel. Many Egyptean's in it. The streets outside are quite unattrative and dirty but local restaurants and shops are available . More

I stayed here for 3 nights at the end of October 2011 at the end of my Intrepid tour, and loved every moment! The room was very clean, quiet and comfortable, with a flat screen tv and fridge. The cleanliness and quality of the towels and sheets was very good. Breakfast was included, and had the usual range of items... More

We stayed a total of 2 separate nights here on a recent vacation to Egypt. My partner and I booked our Egypt trip through Gap Adventures, and they assigned this hotel to us for our one night, 2 day stay in Cairo. At first we were a little skeptical about the hotel based on the reviews on here, but we... More

We stayed 2-nights in this hotel. It had been recommended by our tour company but the price seemed low and I was a bit wary about what to expect. I found our room to be well-kept, clean & tidy. Furnishings were simple but functional; a small table and 2-chairs, small balcony, 2-single beds with wonderful Egyptian cotton sheets that were... More

Breakfast was very ordinary and the communication was poor between the staff. Room service was horrible and we were not offered a refund once we made our comments to reception. The hotel is not really near anything and there is an abundance of strange men who hang outside the hotel that pretend to be your friend and help you out... More

Walking distance to the Cairo Museum. Roof top restaurant has some nice views of Cairo. One street away, are fast food and small shops. Service was good but rooms are average. Be aware of touts further up the street near the bridge. More

Not great. But OK you can do a lot worse in Cairo. Location: Bad. Rooms vary greatly so ask to see the room your booking before you book if you can. We stayed here a couple of times on a tour and had very different rooms each time. Breakfast was standard Egyptian continental. To my understanding all rooms have a... More
