Top Ethnological Museum Hotel Reviews

Cairo Marriott Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"What a lovely oasis in the heart of Cairo. The staff were so accommodating and the facilities were fantastic. We loved every minute"

Royal Cairo Hotel

8/10 Good

"Basic but perfectly good for the price, staff are lovely and friendly, rooms are big enough but beds are rock solid! It's on a lively noisy street so if you have a window it's noisy all night. 2 great seafood restaurants a couple of minutes walk away. Cheap sunglasses shops all in the area. Real downtown Cairo, I was a single 65 year old female, felt perfectly safe."

Sofitel Cairo Downtown Nile

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, room size, and staff"

Ramses Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"Clean room"

Steigenberger Hotel El Tahrir Cairo

10/10 Excellent

"A very clean and comfortable and modern hotel. The breakfast was excellent and good choices. Staff are always smiling and helpful and they do a thorough job of cleaning the rooms inside out. We chose the airport hotel taxi, which was very prompt and patient even though our flight was delayed. The location is very close to one of the museums and lots of shops and restaurants around."

The Nile Ritz-Carlton, Cairo

10/10 Excellent

"What one would expect from a 5 star hotel - spacious rooms, attentive staff, excellent food and restaurant choices. Enjoyed the breakfast as there were a variety of food choices. While we did not face the Nile or street view, we faced toward the museum. The sound from outside below (wedding and entertainment patio) carried to the 11th floor so if you are not a sound sleeper, suggest bringing ear plugs or don’t go to bed before 10 pm!"

Kemet Hotel TS

10/10 Excellent

"Clean and nice spacious room, nice staff, location right within the city"

Sofitel Cairo Nile El Gezirah

8/10 Good

"The hotel is in the perfect location in the middle of the Nile. However be forewarned, it is very, very noisy. The music from river boats blares until 3:00 or 4:00 in the morning. The pounding music from the disco goes on all night! The hotel seems to cater to a youngish, hip party crowd."

Sheraton Cairo Hotel & Casino

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing hotel and staff. Highly recommended"
