"I will be happy to stay at the hotel next time."

"An oasis of calm amidst the frenetic chaos of Cairo! Don't be fooled by the 1960s exterior of this wonderful hotel, the interior is bang up-to-date providing all the amenities one would expect from any modern upmarket 5 star hotel. We loved the classy, chic vibe of the public areas and the staff were all super helpful. Special mention must go to Abdelaal, Hamada an Mohamed in housekeeping that kept our room immaculate, with nothing being too much trouble. Thanks guys! See you again soon?!"

"Great room:spacious, clean, nice partial nile view, . Amazing cleaning aerice staff. I'd like to thank Mr. Islam for his excellent cleanning job, politeness and ensuring I get the best service. "

"At one point, I was inclined to give this hotel a one-star rating, but the consistently professional service changed my mind. Special thanks to Nada from housekeeping—she is attentive, proactive, and always greets guests with a cheerful smile. The facility is new and very clean. Towels are of good quality, and the bed sheets are spotless. The bed and pillows are also very comfortable. While the breakfast price is relatively high by local standards, it is reasonable considering the quality and variety of the buffet. We often slept with the windows open to enjoy the pleasant breeze, and the quiet location made this possible. The only noise we noticed was around 8:00 am, likely from nearby schoolchildren. There are many coffee shops within walking distance that stay open until midnight, as well as several nearby attractions. On the downside, there were a couple of safety-related concerns. There is a protruding step that I nearly tripped over, which even damaged my new tennis shoes. Additionally, a cabinet drawer tends to slide open on its own and sits directly in the path between the bed and the bathroom, posing a potential hazard if not noticed. Another drawback is the lack of comfortable seating in the room. There is no sofa or couch, and the available chairs are not particularly comfortable."

"STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE The elevator did not work We stayed for 4 nights and they don’t come to change the room. At the end, they will change you for anything. The blanket had. Stain before and they wanted to charge me the whole blaket, a towel and and pillow case .. we ended paying $30US extra for nothing. This is in downtown a lot of noise"

"We had a wonderful 3nites stay at the end of April 2026. The staff were attentive and kind. The location is excellent, in front of quiet alley with several cafes. The hotel entrance may be a bit off putting, but once you walk up one flight of stairs, Sama Hotel Sherif Basha lobby awaits you behind glass doors. Newly renovated one floor hotel. Be sure to select rooms with windows on the alley side or main street side. The windows are well insulated from noise. The location is only blocks from the other Sama hotel that is in the square, which is much more noisy. So many restaurants, shops and cafes to choose right in the neighborhood. Access to Egyptian museum and the Nile river is faster on foot than Uber, due to high traffic congestion. With that said, Uber is great since it is abundant and very very affordable. We love this location and the hotel is EXCELLENT. Breakfast is limited but fresh and basic. So many eateries around that we save our tummy for the street food. Can't wait to return to Cairo. Thank you for your hospitality. Tran/Hanala"
