Hotels near Great Sphinx of Giza, Nazlet El-Semman

The room is very new and clean, and the location is first-class. As soon as you go out, you will find the entrance of the pyramid, and its super pyramid view terrace. It is definitely the most recommended priority. I have breakfast on this terrace and enjoy the pyramid under the morning light. Or eating dinner with a free pyramid light show, is full of happiness at the moment, although the price of the meal is generally high, but with its super pyramid landscape, I think everything is worth it! 

The location of the hotel is very good. We live on the third floor, we can see the pyramids from the balcony, and the open-air eyesight on the fourth floor is wider. The hotel service is also very good, free airport pick-up service and welcome drink. In addition, because we bought a lot of crystals, they promised to keep them for us and send them to the airport. They are super enthusiastic!

The hotel was okay, and Mohamed was accommodating. We booked a room with a pyramid view; well, you can see the pyramids if you hang through the window and look backwards, but it is not an actual room view. We were told we could only pay with euros or dollars but not Egyptian dollars, or via bank transfer (with an extra fee (!) on top). There was no prior knowledge about paying extra for not being able to exchange money at the airport or reception despite the fact it is advertised the hotel offers money exchange. Do not take me wrong; the beds are comfy, breakfast is tasty, and you can see the pyramids from the roof while having a brekkie. The breakfast staff was helpful, too. Airport shuttle was top and super quick. As I said, there must have been a language barrier, which is, hey, okay, I am not a native speaker either. But there is no shame in advertising less (and then offering more) and asking questions if you are not sure what the question was. We all work in hospitality, in hotels in fact, and trust me, clear communication can save any situation. It would be nice changing what is actually provided, no spa, swimming pool, money exchange or laundry service. Offering clothes washing but not drying can be tricky when you have an early flight to catch on the following day early Morning. (Especially when promised via text and verbally the day before and day the same day too several times everything is washed and dried!) Update your amenities and services your offer and you will be great guys. The place has potential! But, sadly, for what we paid and what we got did not match at all.

This is our favourite place to stay in Egypt. All the staff are wonderful and make you feel at home like family. Egyptian hospitality is incredible. Don’t waste your time or money in 5 star hotels, experience the real Egypt here! The views are amazing, 1 minute walk to the entrance of pyramids. Special thanks to Kamal the hotel manager, he is a lovely man. Karl & Louise (Ireland)

If you wanna wake up with a fantastic pyramid view then this is the right place, but don't expect much from the hotel, The guys at the reception will try to sell you overpriced tours to the pyramids that are absolutely not necessary, guides can't entry the pyramids, so you will have a person only rushing you around, just buy the 2 tickets in front of the hotel and you will be perfectly fine, uber works perfectly in Cairo.

The excellent review is primarily based on the service from the staff at the hotel that were very frendly and did their best to make us feel good during our stay. Special thanks to Abdo for the great experiance, and Mahmood for the nicely arranged day trips. The view from the room with a balcony is also great. However, there are plenty of things for the managment to upgrade in order to get a realistik 'excellent' review. First of all - breakfast ain't no buffet. It might see like a lot from a first sight, but 4 pieces af some kind of ham, 2 pcs. og cheese and 2 pcs. of butter is pretty much enogh for just one sandwich pr. person (we were two). There were though other food choices on the table, so you don't end up hungry, but after all the breakfast is all the same, so there is not variabillity .. There is only one choice of juice - orange. Coffee is paid separetly (we got it for free). Overbooking issues - on the first night, our room was not available, and we were transferred to a different hotel (far under avarage quallity), so we had to put up a 'fight' to get our originally booked room the day after. If you book a room on the last floor, be prepared from the annoying noice for table moving on the rooftop every morning around 6.30 am. The last two days, were pretty much a noice disaster, due to construction work, that in a normal world, should be done when the hotel has no guests.. After all i'd saiy you get what you pay for - we got it cheap, and that says it all :) A tip for other travellers: Always negotiate your price and never say yes to the first offer when it comes to a day trips, transfers etc. When you hear that it can not be done cheaper - keep pushing until you get the realistic price you want.

This hotel does what it says. It’s opposite the entrance to the pyramids and the view is outstanding. I arranged a pick up from the hotel and it was so reassuring having someone there to greet me. My room wasn’t quite ready so I was sent to the rooftop bar for breakfast. This was outstanding. Probably enough food for five people. I found the staff to be very friendly and accommodating. The room is fine. I never had hot water but I probably didn’t really need it. Would recommend

Here’s a more enthusiastic version: The hotel was absolutely fantastic if you're looking for something simple yet charming! They offered free WiFi and delicious breakfasts. I was so surprised when they went out of their way to liaise with my dad to arrange a birthday cake for me—such a sweet gesture! The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, always checking in to make sure we were happy. And if you want to stay close to the Giza Pyramids and enjoy a breathtaking view while having breakfast, this is the perfect spot! Huge thanks to everyone for making our stay so memorable, especially Mustafa, the big boss, who ensured everything ran smoothly. We miss you all already! Highly recommended to anyone visiting—this hotel is a gem! Big hugs to everyone 🙏🙏🙏

The service staff is very enthusiastic

Don't be fooled by the dilapidated lobby and the small elevator. The room was very clean, our couple took two children and lived very well. All service staff are very enthusiastic. Similar to domestic hotel-style apartments, the price is close to the people, the supermarket downstairs is very convenient to get some food. You can see the pyramids on the rooftop. It's a bit cold at night during the Chinese New Year, so be sure to bring a windbreaker or a slightly thicker dress. But it's hot during the day. Hygienic: very clean Facilities: Room facilities are average but very clean. The lobby and elevator are too old like scenes in ghost movies. Environment: Really enter the hotel, the view of the rooftop is very good, there will be a power outage. Service: Every waiter is very warm and kind.
