Expert reviews
“This sophisticated customer has been shaking up the Downtown hotel scene since it opened in early 2017. From the vast, modern minimalist lobby with casual bar to the spacious, contemporary styled rooms, the Steigenberger is a soothing oasis right in the heart of the city.”
“The efficient staff is eager to please at this hotel, which sits on a corner across from the Egyptian Museum. Street noise in this busy location is an issue, but it’s a small price to pay in exchange for the great location, service, and overall value for money.”

The Nile Ritz-Carlton, Cairo
Standing proudly on the banks of the iconic Nile River, The Nile Ritz-Carlton, Cairo is a legendary piece of Egypt's modern history. Originally opened in 1959 as the famous Nile Hilton, this landmark hotel was designed by the acclaimed American architect Welton Becket alongside local firm Riad Architecture. For decades, it served as Cairo's ultimate political and cultural crossroads, hosting visiting presidents, royalty, and international diplomats.
Forbes“An elegant blend of classic-meets-contemporary, The Nile Ritz-Carlton, Cairo gives you an Egyptian experience in the land of the pharaohs. The lobby’s modern décor with a traditional twist — from ancient Egyptian touches to Islamic arabesque details — sets the stage for an authentic, luxurious stay.”
Osiris Hotel, Cairo
Situated in the heart of Cairo, the Osiris Hotel is a short stroll from the renowned Egyptian Museum. Public areas of the hotel provide complimentary Wi-Fi, and a rooftop terrace presents stunning views of the city's downtown area. The hotel's rooms are brightly lit and air-conditioned, furnished in a simple yet comfortable style.
Lonely Planet“On the top floor of a commercial building, the Osiris enjoys great city views. In the spotless rooms, colourful appliqué bedspreads and palm-frond shelves add dashes of traditional flavour, though the single rooms are cramped for the price. Bag a double with balcony if you can. Breakfast involves fresh juice, crêpes and omelettes.”
Sofitel Nile El Gezirah, Cairo
Rising 27 stories above the southern tip of Gezirah Island, the Sofitel Nile El Gezirah is a striking modernist skyscraper that has anchored Cairo’s skyline since 1984. Originally opened as the El Gezira Sheraton, this iconic cylinder underwent a major transformation in 2007 to blend Parisian art de vivre with classic Egyptian elegance.

Contemporary luxury and understated style are the watchwords for the public areas. Rooms are decorated with cool neutral shades and pale pastels.”
Le Riad Hotel de Charme, Cairo
On El-Muizz Street in the historic heart of Old Cairo, Le Riad Hotel de Charme is a boutique gem that fully embraces its medieval surroundings. Opened in 2013, the hotel’s architecture and design were heavily inspired by the stunning Ottoman-style house, Beit El Sehemy, located right across the street, blending seamlessly with the area's rich Fatimid history.
Fodors“The interior design is influenced by the great Islamic art and architecture in the surrounding historical streets and makes a wonderful homey oasis in which to envelope yourself after a dusty day’s sightseeing. Suites are very well equipped, including a laptop for your use during your stay.”
