Steigenberger El Tahir Hotel, Cairo

Everything very comfortable and also very clean.

A great, comfortable room. Outstanding breakfast. Perfect location.

It was a good stay. The breakfast was delicious and had a wide variety of options.

A great and comfortable hotel located right in the city center. The subway station is just a 3-minute walk away, making it the most convenient way to reach the Coptic area, Zamalek Island, and other parts of the city. Using the metro allows you to avoid Cairo’s heavy traffic and the hassle of constantly negotiating taxi fares. The Old Egyptian Museum is only a 2-minute walk from the hotel, which makes the location truly unbeatable

Very comfortable hotel in a perfect location. Close to subway. Very helpful staff, delicious breakfasts, and everything was really clean. We went on a few days trip to Luxor, and the hotel kept our main luggage for us, which made our trip much easier.

Superb location. Very pleasant staff.

Seating in reception could be better

Location did it for me. Close to the GoBus abdel Moneim riad terminus

Exceptional service, facilities, breakfast. Great location.

Very responsive, helpful and friendly staff. Very clean. Great breakfast choice and well staffed restaurant with excellent service. Location is very central if you plan to go to multiple different areas, it’s also opposite the original Egyptian Museum. We ate a couple of times in the restaurant which was also good. Spa area and gym/pool good for a short stay - Swedish massage fairly priced and pretty good.

It’s in downtown which means there is some traffic noise throughout the day and night but that’s a trade off for it being centrally located.

very good breakfast

Good location, friendly helpful staff

Amaizing hotel and staff. They prepared a breakfast box for an early flight. Thank you for everything!

The hotel was exceptional. Our room was large. bright, and very comfortable. The staff were friendly, welcoming, respectful and always eager to help us in any way they could. The breakfast buffet offered many, delicious choices (including a separate vegan section) and the staff promptly brought me a freshly made cappuccino. The fitness centre had excellent equipment and we used it frequently.

Staff were very efficient, but also warm and welcoming. And that fits every one, from wait staff in restaurant to the maids who cleaned, to the desk staff. The level of security, evidenced by the presence of many very friendly security personnel, was reassuring. Our room was well appointed, the bed comfortable. The bathroom was clean and new. Appreciated the "topping up" of water bottles every day. Very good breakfast and dinner buffets. Very efficient fast moving elevators. An excellent hotel!

The buffet was right at the entrance of the restaurant. Hopeless traffic jams caused there sometimes.

It was amazing! World class breakfast.

The staff at this hotel are incredible! Everyone goes out of their way to be helpful, welcoming, and kind. The rooms are simple and clean. Breakfast everyday was delicious and had plenty of options so that everyone had something they enjoyed.

The pool is outside near a major intersection, so the noise from the cars is pretty loud. There are walls around the pool and it’s completely private, but if you’re looking for a serene environment this is not it. The bathrooms could use an update. Our bathroom was completely fine and very clean, but it definitely was showing a lot of wear and tear.

Location was fabulous. Room (a capital suite for a mum and two teenage boys) was excellent too and plenty big enough for the three of us, with an extra toilet. There was a double bed and I paid extra to have a single bed put up. We also had a sofa bed although it collapsed in the middle. My 16 year old son still managed to sleep on it.

Breakfast was exceptional, felt very safe and the staff was amazing and helpful all the time!

Nothing! All was top quality!

Nicely located, good staff

Excel.lent breakfast, very nice and helpful staff. Well situated.

Sound insolation of the room. A bit noise from the traffic outside.

Spacious and modern rooms, very clean (stayed in two different rooms as I had multiple bookings and both were great). Deserving of all European standards. Very friendly and helpful staff. Great security measures in place (police parked outside the street, hotel security doing regular checks of all incoming vehicles and visitors…) - felt very comfortable and safe.

If the view is very important for you, then you should pick the room overlooking the old Egyptian museum. I didn’t since I do not travel to look outside my window bot to go directly to the attractions.

Excellent breakfast and outstanding service throughout.

The staff was very helpfull friendly exellent the food very good for me the location very good downtown

The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive; breakfast has everything. It's an amazing location

It's really noisy and you need to bring earplugs; only the windows with a terrace in the first floor open

The location was very convenient, close to public transport and attractions. The room was clean, comfortable, and well equipped. Breakfast was fresh and had a good variety of options.

The room was a bit noisy at night due to street traffic. The Wi-Fi connection could have been more stable. Also, the breakfast area was quite crowded during peak hours.

Nice and clean room, buffet breakfast with a lot of choices, easy bar on the ground floor with good wifi

Even with a room on the 7th floor the sound of the traffic entered...

It was my first time in Cairo with my family and we had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The room was spacious and very clean. The location is excellent, close to many cafés and within walking distance to the Egyptian Museum. The hotel also offers an international breakfast with a wide variety of food. There were many choices, and everything was fresh and delicious. I will definitely come back and stay here again on my next visit to Cairo. Highly recommended! 😊

However, I noticed that the sofa could use a deeper cleaning. I hope the hotel can improve this for future guests.I would also like to suggest ensuring that guests’ luggage and delicate items, such as papyrus paintings we purchased in Egypt, are not stored under direct sunlight. Prolonged exposure to heat may damage them. I believe this small attention to detail would further improve the guest experience. Lastly, my kids found that it was quite cold showering even with hot water as there was no shower curtain or door.

twoles .. overused

we were upgraded to a suite which was fantastic

The location within Cairo is excellent. Very central, walking distance from the Egyptian Museum. The rooms are good It's nice to have a pool Good value for money overall. If I were visiting back Cairo I would choose this hotel again.

Location

No balcony in the rooms (I’m a smoker)

The whole stay was amazing, like that it was easy to get to the city center which was about half an hour and found quite a few attractions near by, easy to get to by uber / taxi

"Amazing location and staff, specially Farida from reception. The massage was amazing, keep it up 👍"

Staff was wonderful. Breakfast outstanding!

Lighting in my room was sub par 6029

The friendly and warm staff at the hotel were amazing. Any problem that presented itself was immediately resolved. The breakfast provided was so wonderful with so many options available. The room was ok but it was the service of this hotel which made it remarkable.

Clean and comfortable

Being in a very noisy location You can hear The sound of street all along the night

People are really nice

Location, comfi bed, clean

Swimming pool

I really enjoyed staying at this hotel. My room had a pool view, and it was super quiet. I slept so well and never heard any noise from the street. My friend stayed at a different hotel in Tahrir Square and told me that it was so noisy there, making it hard to sleep. I can't comment on the breakfast because I never tried it. However, I can say what I liked about the room: It was prepared for two people, even though I was alone. I appreciated having four pillows, two cups, a kettle (not a coffee machine), and plenty of towels. This made my stay comfortable and peaceful. When I travel for short business trips (I was here for only three days), I don’t like it when someone starts coming to my room because – let’s be honest – we don’t change towels every day at home, and we don’t change bed linens several times a week. So, I had a perfect stay at this hotel, with plenty of towels and pillows. What I also liked is that during check-out, a lady came out and introduced herself as being from the quality department. She asked for feedback, which I really appreciated. I had nothing but excellent experiences at this hotel. The location was great, too; I could travel to every part of Cairo easily by car. The Wi-Fi was fast and reliable, which made it easy to get some work done during my short stay.

Friendly staff. Amazing breakfast.

During breakfast rush hour they could try to avoid long queues. I had a „quiet“ room and still it was very loud. Cannot be avoided as it’s in city center with massive traffic

Very clean, every staff very friendly, had a good night
