Very nice hotel, professional, friendly and accommodating staff. Breakfast buffet excellent. Room clean, but very noisy (outside traffic and dogs barking).
We stayed here for 2 nights as a couple. The hotel is in a fantastic location, very close to everything. The check in was smooth. The room was standard size on the 4th floor. Had all amenities. The bed was quite comfortable and the room was clean. Breakfast was really good and the staff very attentive. Everyone was always smiling. Definitely recommend for a short stay.
Great view, clean and tidy. I slept well. Loved the location!! Would definitely stay here again!!

The staff is absolutely amazing and accommodating.
Rooms were modern and clean. The hotel is very convenient and in a pretty secure location (lots of security in the neighborhood). Street can be a bit noisy as it's right in a busy part of town. The staff were fantastic and very accommodating. We booked two rooms during our stay and had booked an extra night for one of the rooms at the start of our stay because our flight arrived at 7am. The staff was kind enough to allow us to check into both rooms when we arrived. Throughout our stay they were very helpful and friendly, which were a big plus.
Beautiful hotel with all the amenities. Security was top notch. Staff was kind and polite. Rooms were spacious, clean, and quiet. Would recommend staying here.

It was very central location and the hotel was great
Staff was just amazing, very well trained in hospitality, eyes always on your face only, respectful distance and excellent manners. The room was very clean and fresh. Room service and laundry services were also top class,
Our stay at Steigenberger Hotel El Tahrir Cairo was excellent. Riham gave us outstanding service throughout our visit and even surprised us with a beautiful cake for our wedding. Truly made our stay special. Highly recommended!
