Top Cairo Citadel Hotel Reviews

Viaje Hotel Downtown Cairo

10/10 Excellent

"Une très bonne surprise au centre du Caire. L’hôtel bénéficie d’un emplacement idéal, proche de nombreux points d’intérêt, tout en offrant une ambiance agréable. J’ai particulièrement apprécié la propreté de la chambre et des espaces communs. Les photos publiées correspondent bien à la réalité, ce qui donne confiance dès l’arrivée. L’équipe est chaleureuse, respectueuse et toujours prête à aider avec le sourire. Le séjour s’est déroulé dans de très bonnes conditions du début à la fin. Je garderai une excellente impression de cet hôtel et je le recommande volontiers."

Layla Hostel

8/10 Good

"Très bel hostel, dans une magnifique maison. Très propre. J’avais une chambre pour moi avec une bonne literie. Personnel serviable, bien situé à côté du métro, belle vibe!"

Osiris Hotel

8/10 Good

"The staff and the btreskfast was good!"

Sofitel Cairo Downtown Nile

8/10 Good

"The hotel, hotel room, and amenities are beautiful. The staff was friendly and helpful. We loved the couples massage that I had scheduled before our arrival. However, I had also reached out a month or two months in advance and asked them to decorate the room for our five-year anniversary, but they didn’t. Before spending a few nights in Cairo we stayed at the Hilton Resort and Spa in Luxor, and they set the bar high with swans made out of towels, hearts on the bed, and even gave us a heart-shaped cake for free. At Sofitel, we didn’t get anything and that was disappointing."

Sama Hotel Sherif Bash

10/10 Excellent

"Helpful staff, Clean and newer rooms. Nice place to stay. Was downtown with lots of restaurants and shopping around."

Kempinski Nile Hotel Cairo

10/10 Excellent

"SUPERB place. superb staff. superb service. superb view. you will enjoy every bit of it."

Royal Cairo Hotel

8/10 Good

"Basic but perfectly good for the price, staff are lovely and friendly, rooms are big enough but beds are rock solid! It's on a lively noisy street so if you have a window it's noisy all night. 2 great seafood restaurants a couple of minutes walk away. Cheap sunglasses shops all in the area. Real downtown Cairo, I was a single 65 year old female, felt perfectly safe."

Imperial Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The Imperial hotel is the best hotel I have stayed at in Cairo. Great location, lift, wonderful staff. Clean room with beautiful bedding. I had everything I needed. Thank you so much :))"

white swan hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The staff were exceptionally helpful. I arrived at 2am in the morning and messages them two hours before while I was on the plane and they organised a car to collect me. They were very kind and helped me with anything I needed from ordering cars, food, laundry, finding my way about. Mohammed was particularly helpful. The only downside was the WiFi in my room was not working but eventually they got someone to fix it. It's in the heart of downtown and easy access everywhere. The staff made the stay really special. 10/10 on that front!"
