Holy Sheet Hostel
3.9/535 Reviews
The Holy Sheet Hostel has a great location and we felt we were very central in Cairo. The area is somewhat walkable but never feels safe and gives a whole new meaning to walk like an Egyptian. In the morning the streets are quiet but after 2 pm everything seems to get crazy! The staff are very friendly here. The breakfast was nothing special but it was a nice fresh meal with tea or coffee to start our day. Mario, Alex and the kitchen staff were helpful enough and always friendly to us. This is one of the cheaper places to stay in the area so we can't complain too much about it but we wish it was cleaner. We booked the twin room which had a bathroom inside of it. The beds had hair in them already and the room smelled a little bit from the drains. The AC did work well though and the room was very quiet all night which was nice. The toilet and shower are in the same box without a roof or fan so go #2 at your own risk. We chose to use the shared toilets in the hall which had fans. We were a little disappointed with the booking and check in process. We chose Trip for booking and it started three currencies in our booking but also showed we only had to pay 3100 Egyptian Pounds when we arrived for our three night stay based on the currency exchange when we booked. However, when we arrived they told us we booked through Expedia and had to pay 3600 Egyptian Pounds instead. We went back and forth for a bit but because it was late they were kind enough to check us in without paying because they could not reach their manager. The next day however I went to inquire and they said the manager said no and they tacked on another 300 Egyptian pounds to our check in because we were using a credit card. They did say that if we had used Booking or Hostel World we wouldn't have these issues. This has never been an issue in my 4 years using this booking platform so I'm disappointed in this hostel and their management team for this. The hostel is a little tricky to find but it is tucked down a street which is blocked off to cars and is on the 2nd floor of an older building. There is an elevator to get you up there but it is old style meaning that all the doors and gates have to be closed in order for it to operate. There are a ton of cats nearby and some good restaurants and convenience stores too.
Cairo Paradise Hotel
3.8/553 Reviews
I travelled in Egypt through April into early May, a good time to undertake the journey before the onslaught of intense summer heat. I am sole, independent traveller in my seventies and had pre-conceived ideas regarding the places I wanted to see and had researched modes of transportation. I arrived at Cairo Paradise Hotel, for which I have utmost praise. From reception to house-keeping, the staff are unfailingly courteous and helpful. My month in Cairo coincided with Ramadan and I was invited to partake of the evening meal at the break of fast. Ready to embark on my explorations, I soon realised that due to distances and piecing together public transport, considerable time and effort would need to be expended. I outlined my places to see wish list to Amr, the Hotel Touring Manager, who, with diligence application tailor-made an itinerary, including events and places off the ”tourist track” with drivers and at times, a guide. All came seamlessly to fruition with meetings at airports or train stations never failing to eventuate, at surprisingly low cost. I feel that I have captured the ”Essence of Egypt.”
Dahab Hostel
4.4/575 Reviews
I wish I had found this hostel before two terrible tries with a filthy Airbnb and a small hotel with a scam artist receptionist. I’ll be back here. The rooftop location is cool and it has real hostel vibes with a guitar and area to hang out, which people do. Offers tours, which are a little overpriced but the convenience of them organizing everything so you can just relax is worth it. I mean, spending hours to find something $20 cheaper isn’t worth it to me. They’ll wash your clothes, hallelujah! I saw them helping a younger guy without a smart phone, to call Ubers for him so he wouldn’t get scammed by taxis … all around great experience with helpful staff.
Museum Plaza Hostel
4.1/542 Reviews
Very nice little boutique hotel! Price is very reasonable - also, it's not a hostel as we would know a hostel in the UK. There are 10 rooms in the hotel, every one of them with private bathroom. - Breakfast was fresh every day. - Room was cleaned every day, with fresh towels and bed sheets. - Customer service was brilliant, the reception team was always helpful and nice. - The room was not super big, but comfortable enough for 2 people (we had a balcony for breakfast). - Perfect location, next to the museum and gov. Bazaar. Also plenty of restaurants nearby. - Only downside is that you can hear the traffic from the room, as Egyptians love to honk!

Cecilia Hostel
4/567 Reviews
Me and my girlfriend are travelling to Egypt and after being told by our originally booked hotel that out room was not available anymore (upon landing in Cairo) we have been given the lastminute choice to stay at Cecilia hotel by Booking.com. Luckily the destiny has done things right!! Attentive and very friendly people run this little hotel in Cairo downtown, close to centre, museums, shops, restaurants, cafe in a very safe area to go around in couple or solo. Free Wi-Fi, air conditioning and breakfast with a beautiful terrace where to spend the evening drinking something and meeting new people. Room was clean and good for 2 star hotel. Absolutely recommended and will come back!
Freedom Hostel
4.1/537 Reviews
Excepcional estadía en Freedom Hostel. Totalmente recomendado. La limpieza del alojamiento y la atención de su dueño destacan por sobretodo. La ubicación es perfecta para moverse en El Cairo, puedes llegar al Museo Egipcio a pie y si prefieres Uber puedes obtener muy buenas tarifas a cualquier parte de la ciudad, incluso hacia al aeropuerto. Los mejores falafel del viaje los probamos en el desayuno!! Al entrar al edificio puedes asustarte un poco, pero no te preocupes que al llegar al piso del hostel, todo está muy limpio y en buen estado. Los baños son amplios y ventilados, buena presión de agua y siempre muy limpios. Finalmente, quisiera compartir mi experiencia contratando tour con Eslam, dueño del alojamiento. Planear este viaje por cuenta propia fue bastante complicado, ya que cotizar a distancia en agencia o por civitatis, no me daba garantías del servicio que esperaba recibir, y generalmente me enviaban cotizaciones absurdamente caras y ni siquiera estaban bien evaluados. Eslam desde el primer momento me ofreció el mejor valor dentro de lo que coticé, y decidí armar mi viaje junto a él, ya que conocerlo en el Hostel me daba la seguridad que necesitaba. Contraté las siguientes actividades: Crucero 3 noches, tour en templos de Aswan y Luxor, globo aerostatico en Luxor, Tour Dendera y abydos. Definitivamente fue la mejor decisión que pudimos tomar! Eslam nos armó un itinerario perfecto y a medida de nuestras necesidades. Estamos profundamente agradecidos de sus servicios. Fuimos muy afortunados de poder contar con él en todo momento y poder recibir un servicio de calidad y justo en relación a lo que pagamos. En cuanto al crucero, la estadia fue maravillosa, sus instalaciones y servicios superaron nuestras expectativas. En cuanto a los tours, un excelente servicio. El hecho de poder contar con Eslam y plantear nuestra observaciones nos daba garantías de un buen servicio. Un ejemplo de lo anterior. Durante el primer tour en Aswan la guía no nos llevó a la represa a pesar de estar esa actividad contemplada (dijo que estaba cerrada), por lo que se lo señalamos a Eslam e inmediatamente arregló con la agencia para que nos dieran una visita adicional a otra actividad en Luxor, en compensación visitamos Templo de Habu (el mejor templo de todos a nuestro juicio) dejándonos totalmente satisfechos su gestión y seguros que ante cualquier eventualidad podiamos contar con él. Durante nuestro viaje conocimos a muchas personas que la pasaron muy mal por haber contratado con agencias que daban pésimo servicio o los dejaban abandonados (de tripadvisor, guetyourguide, etc) y también a personas que pagaron incluso más que nosotros por el Crucero y éste estaba en mal estado... por todo ello, valoramos y agradecemos enormemente la honestidad, el profesionalismo y el compromiso de Eslam para con sus huéspedes, definitivamente lo recomiendo a ojos cerrados y para nuestra próxima visita sin dudarlo lo volveremos a contactar. Infinitas gracias Eslam!!! H
Safary Hotel
2.6/515 Reviews
Facilities: It is quite complete, with everything. Anyway, sleeping is no problem. There is still time, and the main thing is to have fun. Other things are not important. The sanitary conditions are acceptable. The environment is just like that. It is close to everything, very convenient, and the service is OK and quite enthusiastic.
The Villa 604 powered by Look
4.2/532 Reviews
This is the most comfortable hotel I have stayed in Egypt these days. It is in the villa area. It is very stylish, very clean, and very quiet. If you want to live in a downtown area for shopping, it is not suitable, but people who like quiet must be very I like it. The price is 300 to 400 RMB. It is much better than many Chinese B&Bs at the same price. However, all hotels in Egypt do not have combs, slippers, toothbrushes, and toothpaste. You need to bring your own.
Palace Court
3.5/57 Reviews
Thank you palace court, you have been so helpful to us during our stay. My boyfriend has a job interview while we were away and they opened up a room for him to do the interview in even though we had already checked out. Also when we returned to Cairo after a week in Hurghada, they allowed us to leave our bags with them for the final day even without a booking. Very clean, right in the heart of downtown Cairo and the staff have been so great to us, thank you so much xx
