Always exceptional. My choice always in Cairo whe I travel solo and with group tours. IFTAR and the rooftop Nile panorama view restaurant is superb. This is a dry hotel and serves ZAMALEK- always a positive reflection of high quality business to see many high status Egyptians dining. The location is also exceptional and is a far better choice than Giza where
