Incredible view of the pyramids on the rooftop terrace!! We enjoyed it each night very much. The building is very quaint and lovely and the hosts are very kind and welcoming. We also had dinner on the rooftop and the food was delicious. Hotel is also a short walk to the Sphinx entrance of the pyramids complex.

The lady bosses were really nice and welcoming. Nothing was too much trouble for them. I really liked the pillow menu - waking up without a sore neck was amazing!! As a single female traveller it was nice staying at a place run by women, it made me feel extra safe. I found it easy and safe to get to with it also being walking distance to the pryamids. Let's not forget the amazing view of the pryamids whilst having breakfast. I will definitely return to this hotel!

Awesome place to stay

I had an awesome experience. My room was impeccable and very comfortable as well as beautiful. Homemade Breakfast on the rooftop overlooking the pyramids just like the advertisement stated. Hotel was super close to the pyramids. The price was incomparable. Hanna was super attentive and welcoming. She came all the way outside to where the taxi dropped me off to greet me and even help me with my backpack. The AC in the room worked like I like it. Extra pillows for me which I love!!!! Awesome time!
