Cairo Hotels with balcony

"I had a wonderful stay at Sayed Effendi Hotel in Downtown Cairo. From the moment I arrived, the staff were incredibly polite, welcoming, and genuinely helpful. Their dedication and hard work truly reflect their commitment to providing guests with an exceptional experience. One of the things I appreciated most was the cleanliness of the hotel. The rooms and corridors were always spotless, and the pleasant scent throughout the property added a very refreshing touch. The breakfast experience was also a highlight. Enjoying a delicious breakfast on the terrace, along with the beautiful Cairo weather, made for a perfect start to the day. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone planning a visit to Cairo. If you are looking for a comfortable, clean, and welcoming place to stay, Sayed Effendi is an excellent choice—you won’t regret it."

"Our honeymoon at your hotel was truly unforgettable. The scenery was breathtaking, and we had a wonderful evening at the revolving restaurant, which boasted not only magnificent views but also a delightful atmosphere. However, what impressed us most was the incredible honesty and integrity of your hotel team. My wallet was lost, and the hotel staff went to great lengths to find and return it to me; their kindness truly saved our trip. We sincerely thank Mohamed and his colleagues for helping my husband recover his wallet, and also thank Alaa Ahmed at the front desk for her warm and professional service, as well as many other friendly staff members. Their kindness made our honeymoon even more perfect. We highly recommend this hotel to all guests seeking excellent service and a wonderful holiday experience!"

"A wonderful hotel in a wonderful location. It's clean, spacious, and has everything you need for a comfortable stay: a tea/coffee set, hairdryer, iron, washing machine with detergent, and air conditioning. The bedding is fresh and comfortable. The staff are friendly and accommodating. In the evenings, you can relax on the terrace. Our flight was late, so we left our luggage at reception; they have a designated area for this. The hotel's location is excellent – Tahrir Square, the museum, currency exchange, shops, and restaurants are all within easy reach. The noise that everyone talks about in Cairo definitely wasn't an issue here. One evening, we got takeout from a restaurant and sat on the terrace; it was very quiet. I'm so grateful for the previous reviews because this hotel is truly fantastic, especially for such a reasonable price."

"I rarely leave reviews, but I have to commend this place. It's not that the environment is super upscale, especially considering the price, but it was definitely much better than expected. Both the front desk and the owner were incredibly friendly. I missed breakfast one morning, and when I checked out at noon, the front desk specifically asked if I wanted some snacks. That really touched me. They also stored my luggage for free until I needed to go to the airport."

"This room is absolutely fantastic, offering incredible value for money. The location is superb, right above a shopping area. For Cairo, this hotel truly stands out for its cleanliness and accommodation quality. There's a mall right downstairs, which includes a noodle shop with delicious spicy options. A McDonald's is conveniently located right outside for an easy breakfast. Getting a taxi to the Pyramids or the museum is also very easy from here."

"Very nice hotel located by the airport. Very quiet from both aircraft and road noise. Extensive grounds, lovely to stroll around and places to rest. Good sized, well equipped rooms. Efficient lifts and plenty of eateries to choose from. Friendly efficient staff. Nice size swimming pool and separate children's area. Highly recommend."

"The location is excellent, very close to the museum, and the cleanliness is also top-notch. However, the Starbucks on the ground floor of the hotel serves bad coffee and the staff are quite lazy. The buffet on the second floor has limited options. On the other hand, Gill's, next to the buffet on the second floor, is really good. The only downside is the disco downstairs; you can still hear the music in your room until 2 or 3 AM, which is very noisy!"

"The location is good, the area is quiet, there's a large supermarket, and a shopping center is a 5-minute walk away. The room provided didn't match the description and was significantly smaller than advertised, but considering the price, it's not a big deal!"

"I had requested a pickup service in advance due to arriving at Cairo Airport at 3:30 AM, and had already made arrangements via WhatsApp. However, the pickup vehicle never showed up, and I called the hotel multiple times, but they didn't answer. I had no choice but to take an Uber, but the hotel was in an area that taxis couldn't access. I had to navigate Google Maps in the dark of the night. The staff was dozing off and didn't apologize for not sending a pickup. In fact, they overcharged me for early check-in. A week ago, I checked with a hotel in Athens, which didn't charge an early check-in fee. The hotel was far from the main street, so I decided to go to Kurzu on the Nile River, but the pickup driver couldn't find me. I contacted them multiple times, but they couldn't find my location, so we barely made it 30 minutes past our scheduled time. The room wasn't heated, and the heater was set to 22 degrees Celsius, so I shivered all night. The more I think about it, the more upset I become."

"Excellent place and great people I was visiting Cairo for several days to refresh old memories because I have lived in Zamalek 50 years ago. I looked for the hotel just somewhere in the heart of Northern part of Zamalek, and location at Taha Hussein street was the best possible option, so I have chosen The President hotel. I had just general expectations as from regular three star hotel, but staff and hotel amenities have exceeded my humble expectations far beyond! The room was very clean and spacious, slippers, toothbrush, shower supplies, teapot, tea, coffee bags, minibar - everything was very nice and provided. Starting from security at entrance and reception (I was put to the level where restaurant is for my convenience), everyone was very nice and polite to me. Housekeeping by Mohammed Eldeep was perfect. Service at breakfast was outstanding (and at dinner too), and chef Mitu had cooked the most delicious food with personal attention and kindness. And tour service provided by manager Dahy was beyond perfection - utmost and ultimately outstanding and fabulous. I was taking complex trips around the city and transfer to the airport. With the greatest scrutinous attention to details from Dahy I got excellent service and very professional drivers so my trips were exceptionally planned and fulfilled in time. To wrap up, I strongly recommend the President hotel due to mostly positive and splendid emotions I have received there during my 3-nights stay. Area has great infrastructure once you need 24/7 groceries, pharmacy or ATM. Don't recommend to drive in Zamalek, better take cab or walk."
