Our family was booked at this hotel through our tour group. Most visitors to Cairo, ourselves included, receive a huge culture shock when they first enter Cairo. If you’re reading these reviews you’ll be far more prepared for it. Accommodation standards in Egypt are far different than other parts of the world. That being said, the Santana Hotel is pretty... more

I stayed here for a total of 3 nights in 2 different rooms as part of a package tour. All of the fabric items (chairs, curtains, bedspread) were tattered and very dirty. Fortunately the sheets and towels seemed clean enough. The bathroom layout was downright hazardous. The faucet and shower are arranged so that it's very easy to slip and... more

We stayed at this hotel as part of a tour pkg. Two and a half nights prior to the start and two nights between our Egypt and Jordan pkgs. We were worried after reading the negative reviews before our departure (there were only three) but the hotel wasn't bad. The hotel is old (everything is old in Cairo!) but clean... more

our trip started here. The location is good. There is plenty of food options. The room we stayed in was huge, the beds great. TV and shower crap. Breakfast OK. The rooms are just old. Stay at the back away from the noisy front. Best thing to take away on trips is Ear Plugs. If you're wanting to relax in... more

After reading all the reviews I was worried, but Santana was not as bad as I thought it would be. It is a very average hotel good for a one night or two nights stay (which is what I did). The room size is fine, TV was working fine, breakfast was repetitive. Bathroom had different sizes (I stayed at Santana... more

Myself and the family stayed at the hotel twice, in 2005 and went back in 2007 and we enjoyed our stay, the staff are very friendly and helpful but you need to have money change always to hand specially the Resturant staff. We have a bit of problem but once we involved the hotel manager it was resolved and compensated... more

Our arranged tour started with one night's accom here but after reading the reviews, we stayed somewhere else and arrived ready for morning departure. We were around an hour early so we were shown to the room still booked for us and invited to enjoy the included breakfast (we didn't) - the room was great! The porter was SO enthusiastic... more
