The room is as not ready after traveling 24 hours and confirming 48 hours in advance. We had to stay at a hotel four blocks away for the night, then come back to the Castello the following morning. The room was not cleaned daily and the beds not made. Staff was very inexperienced with customer service. The toilet broke twice and the shower would not drain. The room was overall dirty when we checked in.

Our stay at the hotel was fantastic! The staff was incredibly kind and helpful, always ready to answer our questions and provide great recommendations. The hotel's location is excellent, surrounded by plenty of nice restaurants and attractions, including the Cairo Museum, conveniently nearby. A special thanks to Mohamed Mousa for his outstanding assistance—he went above and beyond to ensure our comfort. We also appreciated how thoughtfully they took care of our belongings while we stepped out for shopping—highly recommended!

Really nice hotel! Super good location and the staff is super kind also! I totally recommend it! At first look it’s hard to find the hotel because it’s a floor on a shared building! But afterwards it’s easy to understand everything. Good renovation inside the rooms

What a great stay. The building itself is older with older type elevator but nice reminds me of something out of an old movie. Once you get to the hotel floor all is modern. The room was smaller than expected (the picture on the web in Expedia is much bigger) it was good for us, but if you are looking for larger that’s not this hotel. The staff is WONDERFUL. Always ready to assist, always smiling even though they may not speak English they would try to assist in any way they can. The manager was outstanding he helped us book a Nile cruise & tours from Cairo to Alexandria to Aswan. I cannot say enough about this trip and how comfortable the staff made us feel.

The staff are all wonderful: they go out of their way to ensure that you have a great stay (for example, they will walk with you to get a falafel sandwich so that you don't get lost and/or meet your driver to make sure that your check-in is seamless because the entrance is not evident!). My room was clean and very functional. The only downside was that there weren't many towels (but I'm sure if you asked for more, they'd provide them for you!). The breakfast was "simple" and served with a smile! The location is also central to many "downtown" activities/attractions, and there are plenty of restaurants/shops nearby that one can walk to. They also offer day trips (e.g., Alexandria, desert, pyramids) that are very affordable (I booked their day trip to Sakkara/Memphis/Dahshur and was happy with my tour).

Surprisingly Decent for the Price - Clean and Gets the Job Done! Okay, let's be real, this isn't the Ritz. You're not going to find fancy chandeliers or a mint on your pillow. But for the price I paid, I was actually pleasantly surprised by this hotel. My main concerns were cleanliness and a decent night's sleep, and on those fronts, this place delivered. The room wasn't huge or particularly stylish, but it was noticeably clean. The sheets looked fresh, the bathroom was scrubbed (no mysterious hairs or grime!), and there wasn't that lingering musty smell you sometimes get in budget hotels. That was a huge plus for me. The check-in was straightforward and quick, no lengthy delays or rude staff. The person at the front desk was polite and efficient, which is all you can really ask for. The amenities were basic, but functional. The bed was reasonably comfortable, the air conditioning worked, and there was a TV. What more do you really need for a budget stay? Look, if you're expecting luxury, this isn't your place. But if you're looking for a clean, no-frills hotel that won't break the bank, then this is a solid option. It's a good value for the money, and I appreciated that they clearly prioritize cleanliness, which is often overlooked in this price range. I'd definitely consider staying here again if I needed a budget-friendly option in the area. It's not fancy, but it's clean and gets the job done without emptying your wallet.

Okay for the money , Lots of cigarette stench

It’s situated in an old, murky building on the second floor. Inside it’s more or less modern but not really a nice choice due to the enormous noise level. From inside! The doors are paperthin and you can even hear the old elevator arriving although my room was the farthest away possible. The second day there was no electricity in the morning. The staff was friendly but everyone had to smoke permanently in the entrance from where all the stench came into the room. Not really a hotel to return to unless you’re traveling on a budget. The interior was newish and ok, if you’re happy just to sleep it may be a solution although it’s mega difficult to find a good night’s sleep thanks to the permanent noise level from the inside and of course the never ending honking and traffic from outside. I’m on my way to the Hilton right now. It’s not the smartest idea to cheap out in Egypt. People are generally friendly but as anywhere else you certainly get what you pay for. The girl at the reception was a true enrichment to the property.
