We stayed in Cairo one week.The hotel staff were very friendly and incredibly helpful. Our pre-teen daughter has Coeliac Disease and the chefs in the restaurant went out of their way to create a lovely gluten free meal for her every time we dined there (coeliac disease is not well recognised in the middle east) - she was treated like a VIP!

I used Novotel 6 october hotel about a week ago for a conference, the hotel is an excellent venue for conference compared to the rates they offer, the service is really good and the staff are so helpful and polite and they are so flexible just to satisfy you.
The lunch was nice for a conference but not really what you look forward to if you are on leisure. There is a very nice pool that is not heavily used by tourists due to the fact that the majority were attending conferences. The hotel is in 6 october city which is almost 30 kilometres away from down town however a new mall called mall of arabia l has opened like 15 min walk from the hotel with a big hyper market and many shops like gap, monsoon, tramline, vodafone shop and several popular coofee shops.

I must say this was one of the best hotel we have ever visited in Cairo.this was our 5th trip to cairo for business meetings and the facilities and the service provided by the hotel is worth mentioning.....we stayed here for a week and found the place very interesting.....the staff was pretty cooperative and professional.....the food in the restaurent was mouth watering and delicious.....we tried a couple of local delicacies suggested by the manager......overall a very nice and confortable stay......
