Beautiful property, great spa, gym and swimming pool. Rooms need some update but comfortable and those facing the river have an incredible view. Multiple restaurants and coffee shops but service can sometimes be slow in some. Security is tight. Front desk and concierge et front door staff were helpful. Check-in and check-out were fast and accurate. Unfortunately the area around have few attractions except the Egyptian museum which is moving out. There are abandoned homes around despite some embassies and the parliament is close nearby. Downtown is nearby but looks run down and dirty. There is also a confusing metro station close. The hotel however is a gem and prices are fair for what it offers.

The hotel is beautiful & spotlessly clean. Staff are super helpful. Room was comfortable & had great views over the Nile. Breakfast was fresh, varied & tasty, also a big bonus for it being open till 11am. Only negative was the price of food, 3 times more expensive than in nearby restaurants which i guess was too be expected
