"breakfast portions were huge. didn't get a chance to check out the pool. the bathroom was good too, however there's no fan or vent so it gets quite steamy and stuffy after each shower. bed was big and comfy, there was AC though i didn't use it much because the heat was very mild during my stay. the room's window did not open so that was a bit weird. the outside of the hotel scared me initially on arrival, but the interior of the hotel is quite modern and clean. staff was friendly and it was...

Museum And Nile View Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful hotel with wonderful staff. Location is good, loads of shops and restaurants around, bakery shop with delicious bakery, grocery. We found it lovely despite some people mentioning its appearance as we love to stay where locals live. We felt very safe in this area too. Thank you for the lovely stay!"

white swan hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We had a fantastic stay at the White Swan Hotel. Located on the 5th floor, the experience begins the moment you step off the elevator—the space is absolutely beautiful and incredibly well-designed. Honestly, the amenities here rival, and in some cases exceed, those of the major big-brand hotels. Everything about the decor and facilities feels fresh and modern. One of our favorite parts was the breakfast experience: you simply select what you’d like, and it is delivered directly to your room. It felt like a true luxury to enjoy such an extensive menu without having to leave our space. The staff were wonderful and very helpful throughout our trip. They were very diligent about cleaning whenever we requested it, which truly made our stay comfortable and stress-free. Just a small note for future travelers: the air in the area can be a bit dusty, so you might notice surfaces accumulate dust a little more quickly than usual, but it didn't take away from the quality of the stay at all. We would definitely stay here again!"

Paradise Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay. Good breakfast. Nice staff. Interesting bathroom setup but everything is clean and staff is willing to fix anything shortly after requested. We spent most of our days out of the room so we didn’t mind the size… which was on the smaller size. I would have liked more counter space. But I really must say that we had a great stay. We made it work. Thank you Paradise Boutique Hotel staff :)"
