This is a very clean and central hotel. If you want to stay in the centre of Cairo, it is highly recommended. I was particularly pleased about the cleanliness of the room and bathroom. There are lots of places to eat around it

We had a great stay - hotel room was clean and tidy, and the staff were all really friendly and helpful. Mostafa in particular was great and made sure we settled in well and was on hand for any questions.
Wow! We can’t say enough of what a breath of fresh air this was! We were greeted by the kindest of staff, loved every minute here. Breakfast was nice, the rooms are super clean, the bathroom is very modern, and the beds were super comfortable. We loved this so much, the next weekend we rebooked again for 2 nights when we returned to Cairo.
The check-in and check-out process was very smooth. The hotel is in a great location, and the room was very clean and well maintained. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly. Special thanks to Saif and Mustafa for their excellent service and support throughout our stay. Highly recommended!
I enjoy my stay at sama hotel, the staff were friendly , helpful and professional! Thank you again mostafa , youstina , amin and the polite guy from the kitchen,🙏
Room was very clean, hotel location is near to tahrir
I would definitely stay here again and recommends to anyone
The room was clean and the staff were very couteous. The location was good. The ground floor entrance to the hotel was awful and very off-putting. But once you reached the first floor entrance it was fine.
Very good location in the centrum. Close to very good café. Small hotel with a very nice and helpful people. Cleaning service every day. Good breakfast. Highly recommend. My next stay in Cairo will be only that hotel considering.
nice place in older building - they are located on the second floor - it’s all brand new on the second floor - don’t let the building or area scare - everything is safe there - if you want American food- McDonald’s is outside your door step- and 🍔 king is across the street- we did not eat there we tried everything else that was around.

I had a good stay.
The room was very nice and clean. Good location in Cairo downtown.
The people at the reception were very friendly and kind, ready to help and to give recommendation.
Highly recommended
Definitely recommended.
I must commend Sama Hotel Sherif Basha in Cairo Egypt for the excellent customer service and hospitality received during our stay, we are very pleased from the friendly courteous professional customer service from especially Mahmoud General Manager , Mostafa, receptionist, Mazen, receptionist. I recommend this hotel for anyone looking for a great downtown location, professional, friendly and superb customer service.
It was great from beginning to end. It is in the center of Old cairo, in a small alley just 10 meters from a busy street, 15 minutes walking to main square. All the sfatt was very friendly and helpful. They came down to get us from the taxi and helped us with the luggage, breakfast is varied, and with local flavor, enough to start the day, I would only suggest to start earlier like 7am at least, other than that it was all great.
The room and the service are excellent and clean and also renovated the staff is very helpful especially Mostafa he’s so kind and if you need anything he will help you for sure so so kinddd

We are leaving the hotel very satisfied with our stay. The location is incredibly central and getting anywhere is very easy. There are plenty of amenities in the surrounding area. During our stay, we made an incredibly nice, friendly, and helpful friend, Mustafa is a great guy. Youstine is also cheerful and helpful. We wish the breakfast was better, maybe they could improve that.
It's a new hotel well designed and furnished to be honest its looks like a 5 star hotels. Everything is clean and shiny .Room are clean and neat and cosy. Location are great in a mid of down town the hotel surrounded by restaurant's and cafes. Staff are very hospitable and friendly.It was a good experience 😊 highly recommended 👌

This hotel in new and fancy, in a great, walkable area, but the best part is the great people who work there!
Mostafa and Youstina were great helping with tour and appointments. They really made our stay special!
When we return to Cairo, this is DEFINITELY where we will stay!
They make everything so easy and comfortable.
2 notes: the elevator does not go to the 1st flor. And it is a little confusing to find.
Wow, did we enjoy this hotel. The location was incredible if you enjoy being amidst the hustle and bustle of a busy city. The breakfast was great and filling. The room was spacious and clean. But by far, the BEST thing about this hotel was Moustafa. We’ve never been so excited to come back to the hotel from a day out exploring before because we knew he would be there, waiting to ask how our day was. He was so smiley, warm, kind and knowledgeable. He gave us a lot of recommendations and was very flexible with the things we needed. Adtham, Summer and Foustina were also lovely. But truly, Moustafa was one of the best parts of our trip.
So far this was the best hotel I stayed in Cairo(stayed in another 3 before that). Property is new, room was comfortable and clean. The first day the breakfast was good but second day it wasn't, as they change it every day. Internet wasn't good as it kept dropping off all the time, but it seems it's the issue in all of the hotels. Staff in reception is friendly especially Mustafa Mohamed and Mazen, they were very helpful. The hotel is in a great location.
