Hostels in Cairo Governorate, Egypt

It's really clean, probably because it's just opened. Good, good, good.

The location is good as it is close to the downtown area. The building may be difficult to find at first glance. It was clean and the room was spacious for the price. The staff was also kind. You can see the whole view of Cairo from the rooftop. The hotel is located in one part of a building, so you have to take an elevator to get to the entrance. The elevator is a different type than in Japan, so it's surprising at first, but it's fun to think of it as an experience. As the reviews said, I think this hotel can be recommended to Japanese people as well.

Very attentive staff and super helpful with every request. We had to check out very early the next day, and even so, they had the great detail to leave our breakfasts prepared earlier than usual. Situated in a central location. Very recommended.

Very good. The boss is very attentive. Get up early to prepare breakfast for me They are a pair of grandpa and grandma Take good care of me I think they feel safe there. But remember to bring earplugs There are prayer sounds nearby You may be disturbed at night

Room is in a good location close to Tahrir Square and Egyptian Museum. You will need to carry your luggage up the stairs for one floor after taking the lift (goes up to the sixth floor) which is something to note if you have heavy luggage. Room is basic but comfortable enough, would like to suggest putting more hooks in the toilet and more electrical outlets.

本來三床房，結果説，沒有該房型了，所以安排了，一大一小雙床間。衞生間設施非常破，燈不亮，淋雨花灑壞的，好在就住一晚。不過服務生小哥人不錯，態度可以。

The location is really central, right opposite the Egypt Museum and can be found easily on Uber. The best thing about this hotel is definitely the hospitality of the owners who were always willing to help and chat with us about what we needed or where we wanted to go. Very appreciative of them for that! The room is comfortable enough with working AC and good size bathroom, but be prepared for the noise of traffic from outside as it’s close to a main road. Wifi also didn’t connect well in our room but maybe better for others. Breakfast is simple and more Egyptian/Arabic in style with pita, falafel, cheese and eggs + juice box.

The first time I checked in, I felt that this hotel was very good and I was satisfied with everything. But the second time, it was full of problems. There were all kinds of problems with this hotel. First, because it was my second time staying at this hotel, I deliberately did not make a reservation in advance and went directly to the hotel to ask them the price. The hotel said the price for one night was 970 ebms, which shocked me. I checked the platform and found that the price for one night was only more than 400. Then I made a reservation on the platform, and the hotel staff was very unhappy. Second, my friend came to the hotel to visit me. As soon as he stepped into the door of the hotel, the hotel staff ran to me and said that I needed to pay 200 ebms because I brought a friend in. I said I was leaving soon and was not here. He said no, as soon as you come in, you must pay 200 ebms before you can leave. Fortunately, when I checked in, I told their staff that a friend would come to see me the next day, and he said OK, so I escaped. In summary, this hotel has many pitfalls. You must ask clearly when making a reservation, otherwise it is easy to fall into the trap.

When we arrived, it was a little difficult to find the building, because there was no sign of Lucky Hostel in the lobby. However a very persistent man outside, insisted that the building with sign “El otel”, is the correct building. We trust him and we entered. Another problem, it looked like to use the elevator to 4th floor, we must have access card. We wait for about 5 minutes and fortunately there was a man came down, and we asked his help to tap on the elevator using his card. Other than that, my husband & I were happy to stay in this hostel. Our room was so big and with sofa too!! Staff were very kind and helpful. Breakfast was good. Hot shower was very pleasant in cold morning. And we were very happy that the staff allow us to put our luggage while we were away to Luxor. We stay for total of 4 nights and we were allowed again to put our luggage while we went shopping, because our flight was in the middle of the night.

We booked a place to stay on short notice and when we arrived late at night the owner still greeted us warmly and introduced the facilities in the hostel. In addition to the beautiful interior and exterior design, the hostel also provides a kitchen, microwave, refrigerator, stove, pots, etc. There is even a swimming pool in the backyard. The hostel has both single rooms and dormitories, but unlike the youth hostels I've stayed in before, this one has very high floors, probably more than four meters, so even the beds in dormitories are very comfortable, and you can stand completely on the upper and lower bunks. The girls' and boys' dormitories are on different floors, and there are special toilets and showers for women only, so girls will feel very safe if they stay there alone. The single room we stayed in was very spacious, fully equipped, and had a balcony with greenery visible from the window. Unlike all the other hotels I stayed in Egypt, the bedding provided by this hostel was very new and comfortable, which is really rare in Egypt. No matter the price of the hotels I stayed in before, even the hotels in Hurghada that cost thousands of dollars a night, the sheets and quilt covers were all pilling, worn and very rough. The hostel provides complete services. Free tea is provided in the public area. There are also many tables, chairs and sofas where you can lie down or sit at will. There are special staff to keep watch at night, so it is very safe. The sanitary conditions of the entire hostel are comparable to those of a five-star hotel. It is so neat and clean that it seems like you are not in Egypt... If necessary, the owner will provide a delicious and inexpensive breakfast, which is freshly made after you order. Because we had just come from the Black and White Desert, it was difficult to wash our clothes by hand, so the boss provided laundry and drying services. The price was unimaginably low, only a dozen yuan was needed to wash and dry a bunch of clothes. There is also a cute kitten in the hostel, and most of the guests staying at the hostel love playing with her. The hostel is in a great location, right in the city center, very close to the Egyptian National Museum, and convenient for dining and shopping. I rarely write reviews seriously, but this hostel is really the most comfortable and reassuring place I have stayed in Egypt.
