Mohandessin Vacations from ￥143,820

I had a great stay at the Pyramids Lounge. Ehab and Mohamad were extremely helpful in setting up tours of the pyramids, sakara/dashour and Alexandria. I would have been totally lost without them arranging everything. It was safe and informative and easy for me. I even left a bag of mine in the taxi from the airport to the hotel and Ehab was able to help me retrieve it! Really saved a disaster there. Would definitely recommend, price is great and the view of the pyramids during breakfast is amazing!

Room was ok. Mattress was extremely firm. Hot water was short lived. You get what you pay for. Staff was very friendly and helpful. The reception is on the 4th floor. The elevator is not accessible on the ground level. We had to carry my Dad in his wheelchair up over 20 stairs to get to the elevator every time we left and came back. It is not an ADA hotel so beware.

Location: 10 min walk from the pyramids' entrance & a very short ride to the new museum. Plenty of uber and other ride share options; it is close to the express road when you want to go to other parts of Cairo. You can see the three big pyramids from the rooftop. The place is very clean and secure; you get a key to the main building entrance in addition to your room/suite. Interestingly the majority of hotels in the area are apartment buildings turned into hotels, which gives it a personalized feel as opposed to massive hotel chain buildings. The main entrance to building is hidden from the main road: you have to walk a narrow alley of about 50 m ( a bit of an inconvenience checking in and out if you have big luggage pieces as most vehicles cannot enter). The best part about the place is the staff! I fully agree with a previous reviewer who felt extra safe as a female traveling alone staying in a place run by women. Very nice, courteous & professional staff, make a delicious Egyptian breakfast to order and delivered to your room or to the rooftop if you prefer. Since we stayed 6 nights, we were offered a free ride from the airport.
