10/10 Exceptional

Highly recommended

I had a fantastic stay at this beautiful hostel in Cairo! The building is a fully renovated 120-year-old home, and it’s absolutely stunning, full of charm and character. We stayed in a private room with a king-size bed and were wowed by the elegant chandelier that gave the space a special touch. The staff were incredibly helpful and welcoming throughout our stay, always ready to assist with anything we needed. The location is great too — close to Tahrir Square, which made it easy to explore the city. One of the highlights is the peaceful backyard with a pool — a rare gem in Cairo and a perfect spot to relax after a day of sightseeing. Highly recommend this place for anyone visiting the city!

10/10 Exceptional

La chambre était impecable. Le personnel très gentil. La villa est magnifique. Pour rencontrer des gens c'est top. Le ménage fait régulièrement dans les sanitaires.le petit déjeuner très bien. Seul défaut ce sont les douches propres mais la robinetterie parfois capricieuse donc on a parfois un filet d'eau pour se laver ce qui prend beaucoup de temps.
