1/2 found this review helpful

the hotel is crap.

breakfast is meager and disappointing and the walls are super thin.

the noise from the city and other rooms can clearly be heard. service is likewise terrible as phone calls are not able to be made;

beware of the shop downstairs selling overpriced items, marekup as much as 500%!!!

only good thing about this place is the cheap nightly rate.

location is on west side of nile, far from city center. expect to obe ripped off by theif and conmen taxi drivers in order to get downtown.

“comfy”

Pharaoh Egypt Hotel

4 of 5 stars
Pennsylvania
Aug 30, 2007

Not bad at all. As a woman traveling to Egypt alone I was quite comfortable here. the staff was friendly. the rooms were small and not 4 star, but certainly not filthy. the price was outstanding. I got two nights for less than $100 total. It's not particularly close to anything, but it's very easy to catch a taxi right outside on the street. My only complaint would be that the pool didn't look particularly clean. Friendly staff were a plus. I felt safe and comfy here.

I am currently staying here, Have been here a week. Leaving on Thirsaday morning and not soon enough. The place is an absolute shambles. Drinks in the bar takes 30 minutes to arrive then thewy try to charge you twice, a club sandwich in the poolside café takes upwards of an hour and then looks and tastes like a dog has been at it first.... Toilet refused to work. SPoke to recpetion in person at 2 p.m. SOmneone weould come and fix it straight away. At 5 p.m. notified reception again. OK, somneone will come they said. 9:30 p.m. still no-one had been..... I waited in recweption until they found someone to sort it. DONOT STAY HERE!!!!

“Don't go there !”

Pharaoh Egypt Hotel

1 of 5 stars
Cairo, Egypt
Oct 7, 2006
2/2 found this review helpful

Don’t go there !! The hotel is filthy, room facilities are far below three star standards,and the whole place is in bad need for total renovation.One good thing to mention though, the reception staff were friendly and helpful . During my stay which lasted 11 days,the bed sheets and pillow cases where changed in the fifth day for the first time after I had complained.

“Just Satisfactory”

Pharaoh Egypt Hotel

2 of 5 stars
Perth, Australia
Jul 10, 2006
4/5 found this review helpful

We thought we try this hotel as it seemed to fit what we wanted at a reasonable price. The concierge/porter was very efficient helping us as much as he could with our bags. He showed us to our room, which was on a high floor, however, on walking in we almost passed out with the smell of dampness. I put it down to the room being closed up, and we opened all the windows and put the airconditioning on to clear the room of the smell, which worked. Our next hurdle was the air conditioner in the second room making a god aweful noise which we decided would keep the kids awake, that along with the fridge not working prompted us to ask to be moved to another suite. This request was dealt with and we were shown to another room. It didn't smell but the bathroom wasn't the best but we took the suite.
We were not expecting 5 stars and the room did suffice to our needs which were a bed, aircondition and a bathroom. We had our two children with us and they had their own room so it was ok. As we had arranged a tour guide, transport wasn't an issue and there are a million taxi's available and they are fairly cheap.
The only other problem we encountered was the head person at the desk harrassing us to pay for various things when we'd come back after a day out. We paid for the room, then he wanted us to pay for our internet use, then had the audacity of phoning us to check if we had used the internet that night. We hadn't as it was expensive, but he said his "IT" guy said we had. I said NO, and he accepted that. I wouldn't stay here again, as we have now found a lovely lady who does tours and said she would arrange much better accommodation for any future trips.
