“A good deal”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 September 2011

Points of strength:
- View of the sea: very beautiful location in one of the most elegant shores in Alexandria
- Very good for those who want to spend a long vacation.. due to the good price (about 400 L.E per night)
- Excellent for those who are seeking privacy (or women in veil) specially in rooms in 9th and 10th floor... no neighbors
- All female employees are veiled
- Most residents were families and business

Points of weakness:
- The breakfast: not include wide variety of options.. I liked "Tameya" as a breakfast since it is delicious there
- The room service and cleaning: is not very good.. however we never found a Cockroach or any insects there allover the 10 days we spent there
- The beds were not very much comfortable.

Room Tip: Higher floors have more privacy (8th, 9th and 10th floors recommended) Best sea view in suites in t...

“The worest Hotel I've ever seen...”

Not Clean. Very Old Furniture. Terrible Stuff. Very Bad food. The best was our Balcony view as it was more than wonderful overlooking the sea that we could see all Alexandria from the citadel till Stanley Bridge or more ... In addition, it was not value for money at all.

“Terrible staff... and EXPENSIVE @ $90/night !!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 April 2010

people found this review helpful

Went there for a night, everything is fine, but they wanted to keep my and my wife's passport with them till checkout, but I didnt gave them passports, they asked for night's stay in advance.. card machine wasnt working, so I had to go out and get cash from cashpoint maching which was about 15 minutes walk... they laughed at us when I gave them card, they expect to carry U cash....

Nice location but Staff's attitude is the reason they let us down also they charge if U more if U look struck, as we arrived in Alexanderia at 7pm, it was bit late, but they charges us $90/night.
we moved to other place in morning... (Ramsis hotel on the same road, going towards Alexanderia library) where we paid just LE150/ £12/ $16 per night.

It's a three stars hotel. Premium location & view. Clean air conditioned room. don't expect too much as it's $49 for double room BB for Egyptian.
I really like the beach view from it.

Mecaa Hotel , is in front of the beach , nice wind outside and has chairs outside to make us enjoy the view. The staff was ok too , not too friendly as we are in USA , but not rude .

I just regret I could not stay with my egyptian boyfreind in the room and so we had to pay 2 rooms separated , they even put a man to watch us! and I am 37 years old ...
