When critiquing a property I always put context first. Cairo is a large, bustling, in-your-face city. An assault on your senses in every way. So of course, keeping in mind that in mind when assessing the hotel. At the same time, when you deem yourself a 5 star hotel and charge prices higher than most hotels in Cairo, that comes with a set of expectations. And those were not met. The service has A LOT to learn. Bags were misplaced, orders and requests needed to be put in 4-5 times before they arrived, half the time the staff was somewhat nice (although incompetent) but there were more than a few occasions where they were flat out rude. Especially waiters. As a group of women at a table, we noticed groups of men getting much better, timelier and more attentive service. Female staffers were better. Male staffers, mostly rude. I would think twice before staying here again. Overall, I feel like the entirety of the staff needs to be retrained.
