We stayed at the Sofitel Sphinx (OK, but not so great) and the Novotel right outside the airport that a lot of travelers stay when they are heading home the next day. The room was small but nice and clean, the common areas of the hotel were attractive and kept up very well. We found the on-site restaurant to be... more

As most people have said, if you are just here because of an early / late flight, it is does the job. The room was ok, but things like no soap in the bathroom or incomplete towel provisions made it look a bit amateurish. I flew in at 11.30pm and had a flight the next morning at 10am so I... more

Stayed 3 nights here since on 2 of the 3 nights we had very early morning flights out (one a 6am flight for a day trip to Luxor, the other a 7:15am flight to Morocco). So this hotel worked very, very well. Location to airport can't be beat! You walk right past the throngs of cabbies as you exit at... more

After spending two hours trying to get through Passport control and to the hotel, the driver (Hawk) dropped me off at the WRONG hotel. There are metal detectors EVERYWHERE! The room to which I was assigned was run down, and the hotel did not have my reservation available when I arrived. After I showed them the confirmation number that I... more

Can't say if this hotel lets the chain down since we stayed at an equally poor Novotel in Paris. The lobby is impressive but that's where it ends. The carpets in the hall and bedrooms might better be replaced with tiles for easier upkeep and a cleaner impression. Open the doors to the utility areas and you wonder what dirty... more

Not at all impressed whith this 4-star hotel (more like a 2 star). Staff could not understand the english language. I was staying there for two month - jobrelated. Breakfast was ok - dinner lousy. We ate at Mövenpick every night. more

We booked this hotel to be near the airport and were arriving at 1:30 a.m. on our last night and we had a 10 a.m. flight. The shuttle never came that was supposed to pick us up. It appeared to be much closer- we had to walk through about 50 annoying taxi drivers and realized the walk wasn't the safest... more

We stayed one night between a late evening flight into Cairo and an early morning flight out. First impressions are good. We rang from the airport and were picked up. The public areas are modern and clean. Unfortunately this doesn't extend past the lift to the rooms. The corridors look shabby and dirty, the rooms likewise. There was a food... more

Our family (2 adults, 2 young children) was recently in Cairo. Due to our flight connection, we decided to stay for a day let at the nearby Novotel Cairo Airport. The front desk staff was nice and gave good advise. One of them spoke very good French and was helpful. The garden was beautiful but we couldn’t use the swimming... more
