We had an amazing time at this Hotel
Great location, very convenient to supermarkets and food spots nearby

Good Amenities and breakfast every morning
The staff were exceptional and very very accommodating, kudos to tou guys for taking care of us
I will stay here again and will highly recommend this property
Sahara Pyramids Inn is a 3-minute walk to the Pyramid Complex. This is an unbelievable benefit. The hotel itself is clean and safe and staffed wonderfully. Breakfast on the rooftop is wonderful. Be aware: it’s in a poor neighborhood. Just be careful. Everyone we met and/or spoke with was kind and good.
Stayed here for 5 nights October 2025. Staff was extremely friendly and welcoming, room was clean and the price was very budget friendly. The room was exactly what i needed since most of the days i was out and about enjoying the area. The view from the rooftop lounge of the Pyramids is absolutely insane and worth the visit to the lounge or to stay at the hotel. I spent almost every evening up there to enjoy the view before bed. Will stay there next time im in Giza.
The owner and personnel were outstanding, very friendly and helpful.
We usually stay at resorts and 5 star hotels, but this time we wanted to stay as close as possible to the pyramids.
Best place to stay with a view on the pyramids at sunset.
Best price/quality for a room
Breakfast is basic.
I loved every single aspect of this hotel. Staff are super friendly. They are very helpful and they are always for if you need something. I would stay again. PLUS is so convenient with the best view ever
Room with clear view of the pyramids is awesome. They have a good restaurant in the roof so you dont need to go out. Staff was friendly and very helpful.
Had an amazing time. Staff was polite and professional. Rooms were clean and comfortable. The view of Giza Pyramids with dinner and breakfast made it more memorable. I will be returning next year.

The hotel has a great sight of the pyramids. The rooms were not that great, but if you value the price spent are great. The laundry service was excellent, the breakfast was passable, do not exepect a selection of sweets. The people that addent the hotel were always concerned if everything was good and available.The restaurant can be better, but you can Eat different things good selection.

Staff was friendly and helpful with organizing tours and transportation. Bathroom was really small and AC was not working well.
The room was so small it was ridiculous. Barley enough room for our bags. Bathroom was even smaller. Plus side, staff was excellent! The pyramids were across the street so we were not in the room much. Good price, good view, good staff, bad rooms.
You’ll get the best view of the Pyramids from this place. It’s literally right across the street. Excellent stone work inside. Also has an upper deck for eating & observation which is really great. The mattresses are extra firm. Not my preference but the room a/c will freeze you out. Breakfast is included. Not your average western omelette but it’s filling. You Love the view.

Staff was very helpful. No windows in room. 4th.floor no.elevator
Area outside over run.by pain in the ass touts
Camel and horse manure everywhere
It’s hard to write this, because the staff were very helpful and welcoming and they are what makes this inn a success. We just feel catfished by the photos of the rooms. We booked a deluxe twin room and all the photos showed that it had both a window AND a view of the pyramids. We had no windows in the room at all. The floor space is so small that going to the toilet at night was dangerous. The en-suite was so small, you can’t get up from the toilet properly without bashing the sink. The shower was hot which was good but nowhere to put the towel and water just went everywhere. Someone was right when they said it’s a transit location. We’d booked 2 nights and I wish we hadn’t.
The food is good enough to not need to go out. The breakfast isn’t great.
But after all of this, the staff were incredible. I can’t fault them at all. It’s the facility itself.
It’s our fault, you get what you pay for and we went cheap.
It was a fantastic stay.
The manager was very welcoming and helped with tours.
I highly recommend this hotel.
Note the best priced tours are with this hotel as well.
