Steigenberger El Tahir Hotel, Cairo

Very clean comfortable and you can walk to restaurants and shops bank

no power hook-ups in bathroom

Great hotel. Great value.

Beautiful and clean. Very friendly staff.

Excellent staff. A special thank you to Riham (customer relations) who coordinated the return of my backpack left in a taxi. The relief of seeing the photo she texted me after the cab driver dropped it off at the hotel aided in enjoying the rest of that evening. Egypt is chaotic making the return to our room a relaxing break from touring. We opted out of breakfast but our travel partners raved about it. Thank you to the ever helpful staff. A+ location for touring in and around Cairo.

The best thing about this hotel is the location at Tahrir Square across the street from the Egyptian Museum. The staff are courteous and friendly. The room was comfortable and of a good standard. The hotel had a good gym and small but usable swimming pool. It was expensive through and for the price we paid breakfast should have been included.

No problems at all, very helpful y friendly staff.

The staff is v friendly and the welcoming was very warm and the cleanliness is super Very much recommended Definitely repeated

A well situated hotel to the Nile, downtown and the old Egyptian museum. Very helpful staff. Rooms are good but maybe not as modern as the other steigenbergers. Gym is serviceable but the location is hard to beat. Good breakfast.

I liked the way that Mohamed Amin showed he is in deed professional, and we appreciate his way of welcoming us and managing our booking, This one of the main reasons behind our stay their every time we are in Cairo

As a couple it’s our first time in Egypt/Cario. We spent 2 nights at this Hotel. Room #9001 Location: Very good 10/10, The hotel is located very close to the Nile River attractions, Old Museum, other luxury chain hotels, walking distance to the groceries, fast food rest., cafes. 30 min. away from main airport and Giza Pyramids entrance, and 10 min away from old bazaar. Check-in & out: Easy and smooth 10/10, however no welcome drink ☹ Personnel: Overall very kind and helpful 10/10. Room: Room is large enough, quiet, comfortable and modern.

Very good hotel!

Great hotel right at the heart of Cairo with modern, clean, and well-equipped rooms. Excellent customer service. We've stayed at a couple of hotels in Egypt, and this is our favorite so far. Would come again!

A bit overpriced for a 4-star hotel, but that could be due to the time we picked.

It was nice stay , very good location near to the museum . Good facilities and professional staff.

Excellent stay in Cairo . Best position and Best quality / price ratio. Definitely recommended. Staff very efficient and friendly

The location is great and staffs are so friendly!

Thanks to Riham from Reception, helped me in late check out

I had a fantastic stay at Steigenberger! I wish I could have stayed longer. The staff are absolutely amazing. They are kind and concerned for your comfort. Riham in reception was especially great, calling to check on me my first day. Highly recommended!!

They are very welcoming especially Ms.Fraida in front desk

Great location. Great staff and breakfast is pretty diversified!

It is a very good hotel. All people here were very kind and make you feel great

Everything ws super great and clean , also, ms. Riham she was very helpful and very nice accommodating my inquiries

The Service and the incredible job of Monica and Farida at the reception, they really helped my family during our stay! We have had a really nice time in the hotel

The room was very clean and well presented. It had everything we needed. The pool bar was very pleasant and a nice place to have a snack.

Provided full mini-bar for us, check-in check-out very smooth. Dining is a big plus, the restaurant on the lobby floor provided very delicious food. Room is clean and comfortable.

This is a perfect hotel and I would certainly come back again

Location

Price of drinks was silly. ( You could buy the full bottle at Liquor Store 200m away for the price of 1 short in the hotel bar). Plus hidden in fine, fine print on drinks menu was, that this does not include tax and service charge. Nor any mention of what % these charges are. Very few actually having a drink in the bar and this is probably why. Rooms have no opening windows so can feel claustrophobic at times. Not up to the same standard as other Steigenburger Hotels in Luxor or Hurghada.

Location

Location is in the heart of the city. While the room felt old in design it was very clean with an updated bathroom. The room supposed to be Nile view, for honesty’s sake it was however you glimpse the nile just about. Also the window was very small and neighboring building tenants could invade your privacy and vise versa

We were very satisfied with the hotel, it's location and the service provided. Even though on the first day we found some mold in the shower, it was removed immediately and without any delay from the shower by exchanging the entire fugues where the mold had developed... They ensured us that this was a rare thing to happen to them and as a compensation we were allowed a late check out free of charge. The staff and especially the guest relations supervisor Ms. Riham Khaled were always helpful, kind and available at all times. Some of our friends were staying at nearby hotels (also big international chains) and they reported that their rooms were badly maintained and loud from the busy street nearby. Even though the Steigenberger hotel has sort of a business flair to it, the atmosphere and prompt service also with issues, gave us a full holiday vibe. We would recommend a stay at Steigenberger in Kairo to anybody visiting and wanting a hassle free experience in busy Cairo.

Great location for downtown Cairo and very good staff and facilities

The hotel’s central location in the heart of downtown makes it an excellent choice for exploring the city. The room was clean, and the water pressure and temperature were both great. The staff were friendly and accommodating—if you need a bidet shower, they’ll install one free of charge upon request. However, the bed was quite firm, and the lighting in the room wasn’t sufficient. Despite requesting a non-smoking floor, I noticed cigarette smoke on my last night. Also, given its prime location, some city noise is to be expected. If you’re looking for convenience rather than luxury, this hotel is a solid choice.

Good

Staff are very helpful and happy to serve. Location is great for exploring and is close to other attractions. They also have good food options for kids and provided our little one with a coloring book.

We strongly recommend this hotel for its location, guest friendly staff and superior service.

We stayed for 4 Days and really enjoyed our stay. The staff were very attentive, with daily calls to check we were ok. At the end the guest relation supervisor spent time with us. The food was excellent

We would love to thank Monica and Riham for their hospitality and their kindness ❤️

Excellent location, friendly staff and comfortable rooms. Breakfast was very good.

Nothing bad to say.

We enjoyed our stay a lot. The breakfast menu was changing daily, so it didn't get boring. Clean, spacious rooms with all necessary things and even slightly more. And a great location in the middle of burstling Cairo. Looking forward to be back

The breakfast offers a wide variety of options. The location is outstanding, providing easy access to key attractions. The staff is exceptionally friendly and always ready to assist. The room is impeccably clean, ensuring a comfortable stay. They genuinely prioritize customer satisfaction with attentive service.

The service

This location, in Cairo, is excellent. The food and service, in the restaurant, is wonderful! We unexpectedly added a night and organized a tour driver at the last minute- all of our changes were quickly facilitated by staff. The staff is so welcoming and helpful at all times- great stay! We highly recommend this hotel!

Very loudly because of the road

The tables were not cleared quickly, it was very busy and noisy. We always had to ask for water and coffee , even though there were staff there they didn’t come to fill the drinks we had to approach them. There were not any bowls and not enough chef making fresh eggs, we couldn’t get any at all. The front desk didn’t know any tourist information. They didn’t know about the new station Bashteel when we wanted to confirm our onwards journey. Everything was complicated to ask for help. We arranged all our travel independently so it would be better if they had some knowledge. There were no maps of the area , no tourist information at all.We asked for some money to be changed into smaller notes to use the metro and we were given damaged notes. When we went to the metro the cashier told us the money was useless as it was damaged and it was a bad hotel for giving us the money. He gave us tickets anyway, he was very kind. When we were busy eating or trying to go out for day trips we keep being asked to give reviews. What we wanted is to get service and information ! I don’t expect to be asked for this until after I leave , this is not relaxing or 5 star. We were never shown anything in the hotel we booked it for central location and pool, no one told us anything. We wanted to get coffee and bowls and information, not to constantly be asked for a review everytime we sit down or ask for something from front desk. Food and room was lovely and it was clean, staff were mostly friendly but restaurant some very unhappy faces and sometimes staff using their phones.

Excellent hotel right on El Tahrir Square, very central near the Egyptian Museum, clean and well-kept, great pool area, particularly friendly and helpful staff, great food at the buffet

Staff very attentive, very clean. Good location. Friendly and good facilities
