Steigenberger El Tahir Hotel, Cairo

First the location it’s perfect, by Tahrir square. The old egyptian museum is right around the corner, the opera house too, the Nile river it’s about half a mile. The facilities are very nice and clean. The room was comfortable . Breakfast buffet is top of the line , and dinner options include Western cuisine . The staff is very friendly and always willing to accommodate you. I highly recommend you this place to stay in Egypt.

Location and staff

Location, spacious suite, view from the room

staff could be nicer

Very good location and staff went out of their way to make the stay good for us. We stayed for 3 nights. Very easy to get an Uber to all the popular spots and you can also walk to the Egyptian museum and downtown Cairo.

I don't have much negative to say about this hotel and they are all trying their best, but the air condition in the room was set to 14 degrees. I tried many times to get help from reception to turn it up, as going from 42 degrees outside and sleeping in 14 degrees is not good. They came many times to the room and said it is fixed now, but it didn't work. I was sick with a cold for 5 days after staying here and it ruined the start of my holiday. When we checked out they said we should have said earlier and we could have had a new room, but we told them several times and they said they fixed it.. But yeah.. Also the second negative thing which was very annoying and almost made this review a lot worse was the fact that when we were eating breakfast, people who was working there came over and tried to force us to write a review of the breakfast and mention their name in the review.. WHILE EATING BREAKFAST. Disgusting behavior.

Simply perfect! 🌟 I stayed at the Steigenberger El Tahrir Cairo and can confidently say it’s one of the best hotels I’ve ever experienced in Cairo. The location is outstanding, right across from the Egyptian Museum and just steps away from the Nile. The rooms are modern, quiet, spotless, with incredibly comfortable beds and a beautiful view of the city. The level of comfort is truly high, with every small detail carefully taken care of. The staff is wonderful – always helpful, smiling, and highly professional. From the moment you arrive until the moment you leave, you feel genuinely looked after. The pool is a peaceful oasis in the heart of bustling Cairo, and the security throughout the hotel is impeccable. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone who wants to experience Cairo with style, comfort, and a touch of luxury, while still feeling completely at home.

central

Everything was well organized, comfortable room, friendly helpful staff, breakfast was very good lots of variation, walking distance to Egyptian museum and in central location easy get taxi and walking distance to shopping street. The staff very helpful and I really appreciate the quality of the service. The hotel is good value for money.

The internet connection there was no internet connection at the last days because of the fire in the central communication center in Cairo so no internet, I don’t know if the problem was solved.

Cleanness

Actually none

The location of the hotel is perfect, very centric and close to everything. We enjoyed the room, which was very clean and spacious for a couple. The service is immaculate 10/10. The whole stuff are friendly and respectful.

The staff were incredibly welcoming and professional, always ready to help with a smile. The room was clean, spacious, and very comfortable. I also enjoyed the breakfast buffet, which had a wide variety of delicious options. The overall ambiance of the hotel was elegant and relaxing.

I don't like the air freshener used throughout the hotel. The smell was awful 😖

Yes

Very nice clean All Friendly

Had an excellent stay at Steigenberger Hotel El Tahrir Cairo. The service was outstanding, and the customer service was truly top-notch. Staff were professional, attentive, and made sure everything was perfect. Highly recommended for a premium Cairo experience.

Fantastic location for attractions in downtown Cairo. Good restaurant for cosmopolitan dining.

This hotel was perfect, from the location to the staff, pool, and restaurant. Shout-out to the two dining room bartenders, Mohamed and Mostafa, and the pool bartender, Self. They made sure we had great drinks and laughs. Security is a bit strict, but it became easier as they saw us coming and going a lot. Also, it can be noisy with the street traffic, but it didn't bother us. We slept well throughout the night. I will definitely be booking again whenever I come back to Cairo!

Location was central to El Tahrir square, also close to the river Nile, and not too far drive to Khan el khalili bazaar. Late check out was complimentary, after speaking to reception (soo grateful)

The swimming pool is a little small

All staff friendly and helpful

Didn't try breakfast

Proximity, cleanliness, it felt safe and the staff were very friendly

My room didn’t have a window I could open. Maybe they can look into that because some of us like fresh air in the mornings

Great value for money for a short term stay; staff are excellent making sure you are taken care of ; 5 minute walk to Ritz Carlton; old museum; restaurants and take aways; please try ELAbd Patisserie

Excellent team reception and house keeping

Location, Clean, Staff,

The single bed is moving is annoying little bet The windows in some rooms are locked The gym and the pool was too much small

Breakfast, Service and kindly staff - 5 / 5

Strong smell of cigarettes in the room

Storage room for luggage located in parking zone. Not so convenient. Priced in restaurant doesn’t include taxes and VAT. Be careful 😉 Also hotel receptionist asked me to rate the hotel in booking 🫣

Central and modern , amazing breakfast, nice staff

Fridge was not working properly but the staff took care of it !

Right across the road from the Egyptian Museum, beautiful breakfast and well appointed rooms.

The staff were attentive and friendly. I felt very safe. They left plenty of water each day, which was nice.

My room faced the street and it was very noisy - cars honking, dogs barking; although this wasn’t the hotel’s fault, it did have an impact on my stay. The restaurant food was just ok.

Was great experience and very helpful

Food

Size of the room and air conditioner

Great location comfortable hotel situated in a vibrant local area of the city across the road from the museum

The breakfast choices are buffet or see breakfasts all options involved a lot of food. Too much for us there is no a la carte menu if you just want some fruit and an omelette. Our room on the 6th floor was not sound proof there was a lot of noise from the streets pretty much all night. Don’t stay in 6018 and ask for a quiet room

Every staff was devoted to your happiness. We enjoyed everything about our stay. The taste of breakfast was divine and our room was spacious.

If you have difficulty in sleeping, you may need earplugs. The hotel is located right in the Tahrir square. We heard most of the noises from outside which was distracting sometimes.

A truly wonderful experience. The customer service was outstanding – guests are accompanied throughout their stay with great care and attention to detail. Nothing is left to chance. Many thanks to the entire team, especially Farida and her staff, and to Christine and her colleagues at the restaurant. I highly recommend this hotel. Attentive, thoughtful, and always with a smile. The staff are well-trained, discreet, and genuinely dedicated to guest satisfaction.

The hotel is conveniently located near downtown, within walking distance of many shops and attractions. When we first arrived, the area felt a bit chaotic—but that’s just Cairo. The city has its own rhythm and energy, which we quickly came to understand. While it’s common for people on the street to approach you asking for money, we never felt unsafe or at risk of being robbed. In fact, we felt comfortable walking around at any time of day, even late in the evening. Overall, it’s a great location, and the combination of price and service is excellent. One of the highlights of the hotel is definitely the breakfass The hotel’s breakfast buffet offers an impressive variety of options—everything from made-to-order omelets and fried eggs to a surprisingly wide selection of sushi, which I didn’t expect to see at breakfast. There’s also a generous assortment of cheeses, breads with different flavors, desserts, juices, and a range of coffee choices. The staff is exceptionally friendly and attentive, always checking in to see if you need anything. I especially want to recognize two waitresses, Ayat and Donia, who were incredibly helpful—constantly offering coffee, water, and making sure everything was perfect. The breakfast service is very well organized, and I highly recommend it.
