Absolutely, absolutely, absolutely wonderful! Lush greenery right beneath the pyramids—the ambiance, service, security, dining, gym, room service... everything was excellent. The hotel can arrange transportation to the pyramids, and after breakfast, you walk straight into a direct view of the Great Pyramid of Giza, going against the flow of the crowds entering from the main gate. This was fantastic for the hot weather! The hotel's rich history goes without saying; the palace where the Cairo Conference was held is currently undergoing renovations, but you can see the exterior. The staff are highly professional, incredibly warm, and attentive when answering questions. We even stumbled upon a beautiful wedding! Everything was just superb! The pyramids are definitely worth seeing, but the Marriott Mena House, with its pyramid views, is even more worth the visit.
The hotel's location is right by the Nile, which is great for enjoying river views during breakfast. Other than that, the location doesn't really offer any advantages.
**Hygiene**: This is where I have to complain. The chairs and table on the balcony were covered in dust, and the carpet had a slight, localized foot odor (which I noticed when I squatted down to pack my luggage).
**Facilities**: Quite old-fashioned, like those outdated 4- or 5-star hotels in China from ten years ago. There were no toothbrushes or combs. Also, no disposable bath bags for the bathtub, and the hairdryer was really poor.
**Service**: Thankfully, the service was warm and attentive. Overall, I paid a four-figure price for an old 5-star hotel that felt more like a guesthouse in terms of amenities. It didn't feel worth the price; for a bit less, I could have just booked a guesthouse with character, or for a bit more, I could have stayed at a much better hotel. Oh, and the pool-facing room was noisy if you didn't close the door, as it faced the road.
This hotel surprised me because the interior of the hotel from the lobby to the rooms to the restaurant and terrace on the top floor is clean, new and modern, and the price is not expensive. There are really not many hotels in Egypt that can do this! I think the breakfast is pretty good. The terrace on the top floor has a beautiful view, overlooking the pyramids and the sunset, which is very impressive. There are regular sockets in the room so you don’t need to bring an adapter and there are a lot of sockets. This is definitely a plus when traveling abroad! And I don’t recommend the pyramid view room, because there are many stables on the block outside the window of the room on the side of the pyramid... The smell is hard to describe. Just go to the top floor terrace to see the pyramid.
Another thing I don't like very much is that I stayed in the hotel for three days, and I renewed it on Ctrip on the third day. I told the front desk staff, but they would call to remind me at 10 a.m. every day for the next two days. I checked out... It's hard to comment... Apparently they don't seem to have a shortage of housing...
Next to the pyramid, you can clearly see the pyramid, and there is a pyramid light show at night. The hotel needs to bring its own slippers, toothbrush and toothpaste.
Facilities: Older.
Hygiene: The hotel's hygiene is still decent, and it's just outside the hotel door.
Environment: Mainly for the pyramid, because it is a bit noisy next to the scenic spot.
Service: I didn't ask for any additional services, the general requirements will be met, the hotel's breakfast is not many, eat enough, recommend fried eggs, to tell the waiter.
The location is great! It may be one of the best hotels out of the 300+ hotels in Cairo. From the rooftop terrace, you can see the Sphinx and the three great pyramids right in front of you. There are no buildings in front of you at the moment, so it feels like you're in Egypt. The problem was that the hotel was under renovation at the time and the hotel sign was not visible outside, so taxi drivers had a hard time. It was a tough climb with only stairs, the breakfast was the same every day and got boring, and the rooftop was hot because there was no shade. However, the staff were friendly and I thought it was good.
Have to say that the location of this hotel is super good. Just at the entrance and exit of the pyramid sphinx, the roof can be seen while eating breakfast and watching the pyramids. The breakfast is very rich. What's more, at night, you can watch the pyramid light show for free at the top of the building. Haha, it's amazing. The waiter was very good, and the things that packed me and put me on the bed were also packed up. The front desk (the boss) is enthusiastic and takes the initiative to introduce how to go. Free pick-up service is also good (but Ctrip's page does not prompt for free pick-up, I saw the free pick-up from the hotel's own official page), the driver did not have to tip. The delivery service is also very thoughtful. Overall, the price is very high
피라미드를 즐기기에 아주 좋은 장소입니다. 뿐만 아니라 각종 투어 픽업이 근처 kfc에서 이뤄지므로 위치가 매우 좋습니다. 새벽 1시가 넘은 시각에 도착했는데도 체크인이 원활하게 도와주었고, 화장실과 침구도 편안했습니다. 무엇보다도 호텔 루프탑에서 조식을 먹으며 피라미드를 볼 수 있어 좋았습니다.
Very new hotel, rich breakfast, like the freshly made pitta cake. The bed was very comfortable and it was about 30 minutes drive from the pyramid scenic spot. Hotel security is strict. . . .
A five-star hotel near the pyramids, it is very convenient to get up early and go to the pyramids.
The breakfast is white food, I am not used to it, but I can eat enough.
The hygiene is OK
No toothbrush is provided, there are large bottles of shampoo and shower gel, and slippers
Compared with Mina Palace Marriott, it is more affordable, and compared with the pyramids, the service is better and safer
Staff Amazingly friendly and helpful, The views are incredible from room to resturant to roof top, where i got to watch and hear the evening light show in fully glory.
Booked for my 1st 2nights in Egypt, perfect location in front of the sphinx side entrance to the plateau, literally a 2 min walk..
This side of Giza is rough and ready though.. with animals being housed on the ally leading to the entrance so expect the smell of horse and camel poo (which wasn’t a problem once in the hotel) also expect to be bothered a lot by the local hustlers and kids begging for something/anything..
The streets are noisy and hectic this side but you also get a more authentic Giza experience,
The Hotels staff were super accommodating and welcoming, they were willing to help organise trips and guides but I wasn’t in need as i already had stuff arranged..
Breakfast was basic but enough to get your day of adventure started with plenty of option around for off site dinning.
The best thing apart from the staff was the view tho.. with all 3 great pyramids and sphinx in view and close enough to get the full effect inc the sounds of the light show.
Would recommend for a cheap budget stay close to the entrance of the plateau with the best views
Very Good

GGuest UserHotel is new and looks great. It’s out of the way from downtown which makes it more peaceful. We stayed a few nights, breakfast and the pool amazing. Staff very friendly and helpful. However a few things to point out that I was going to but needs to be said. No privacy as workers working most of day outside of room so the window and curtains had to be closed or creepy men looking at you. Door connected to another room and not good sound proofing or insulation, can here everything other people are doing. Bed sheets had some blue dye stains on them the first night which was unwelcoming. Lastly, we decided to check out one night before, going to pay for mini bar things. The menu is priced in local money and not in dollars and doesn’t have VAT included, also a mini bar service charge is charged for the house keeper to refill which is hilarious at best as you pay for the room. That should include her to top up the fridge just as she would top up towels. Water isn’t free only a big bottle and not the small bottles so be careful. They don’t explain that clearly. So, once I saw my bill I tried to talk with front of house about it. He treated me like and ***** and said I need to pay in USA dollar and I said then why have a menu in your local currency. He couldn’t give me a good answer and just said all hotels do it. Then he started to laugh and tell me this is little USA money and so on and laugh again. I ended up paying my bill just to get out of the hotel as his attitude was poor and almost sarcastic. I paid then he said I’m welcome back be he will give compensation. I said well you wouldn’t help me swap a day to later in the week to return as early check out before so am good. Overall, we left the hotel in a poor mood and not acceptable. I’ve worked and work for these hotels and that is just poor. That was the biggest let down unfortunately.
AAkkarpanLocation, location, location! Mohammed and Mustafa and staff are lovely and the best thing about this is location. Also, AC is great and hot water in shower, all really good things. Splurge and get the balcony, because if you get the $15 room, it’s an inside room - read everything carefully. But the balcony gives you breakfast with the pyramids. A couple of doors over there is heaven‘s lounge which you can get beer and alcohol at which is lovely to spend the evenings at with wine under the pyramids. You will get nothing of that here. I do have a bit of a bone to pick with trip.com because they didn’t do their research as there is no restaurant, there is no bar and there is no pool or gym in this place, which is why I downgraded the amenities. However if you were going to Giza for the pyramids, this is the place. Yes it is right behind the camel and the horse staging area so from 8 o’clock in the morning till quitting time which is 4 o’clock in the afternoon, you will have the authentic experience. If you do not like trash, if you do not like dust, if you do not like smells, you should probably just not be coming to Egypt in general! Because it is everywhere. However, if you want the authentic experience at the base of the pyramids, this is the place. Oh, and the Internet is crap… So just make sure you have a really good cellular plan because it’s no better anywhere else in Egypt either.  From our experience, and we have traveled everywhere, the left over British colonies just don’t have a really great Wi-Fi infrastructure. 
GGuest UserThe staff are all very helpful.
The toilet and shower are also beautiful. There are soap, tissues and toilet paper.
The door has a key and a chain lock. There is also a safe in the room.
It was a very nice hotel. I moved to a different hotel now but I want to return to this hotel again (-_-)
DDaniel & Cici Around the WorldGiza Pyramid Inn is very conveniently located, right in front of the Pyramids, offering an amazing view from the rooftop. The breakfast was very good, and the ability to wake up and see the pyramids right outside is definitely a highlight of this stay.
However, there are a few important things to consider. While the pyramid view is stunning, the neighborhood itself leaves much to be desired. The area is chaotic, not well-organized, and quite dirty. As this is a very touristic spot, you will constantly encounter people asking for money or trying to overcharge you for something, which makes it essential to stay alert at all times.
The hotel itself follows the same pattern. The tours they offer are significantly overpriced, likely because some people pay for the convenience, but the prices are far from reasonable. Additionally, we were promised a takeaway breakfast due to our early flight, but when the time came to collect it, they said it was not available. Despite confirming our departure time in advance, we ended up having to buy food at the airport, which was disappointing.
Overall, if you are staying here for the location and the pyramid view, it might be worth it. However, be prepared for the typical tourist traps and be mindful of overpricing. It’s a place that offers convenience, but with some frustrations along the way.

HHristijanWhen we came in the hotel, the guy took our luggage to our room and waited for a tip. The breakfast on the first day was terrible. We had to wait till 07:00 to start with the breakfast eventhough there were other people who started 1 hour earlier. There was no hot water in the shower. The reception was okay. The view was very good.

SSusuYumiCleanliness:
The bathroom was very clean with no unpleasant odors. The entire place was spotless and felt very new. The bed was especially comfortable.
Service:
The owner was friendly and easy to talk to, and the service was very attentive.
Facilities:
The room was equipped with a wardrobe, refrigerator, electric kettle, dressing table, TV, and shampoo and body wash.
Environment:
The triple room was spacious. The restaurant on the 8th floor offered a great view of the Pyramids. Breakfast was included, and the freshly squeezed juice was excellent.
Location:
Only a 10-minute drive to the Pyramids!
After staying in Egypt for a month, I can say this is probably the newest hotel in Giza. The service here is much warmer and more welcoming than at Mina Palace.
GGuest UserVery very happy with this hotel. It is very clean. Modern. There is very comfortable bedroom. Proposes socks and what is needed for the bathroom. Great view from the terrace on the pyramids. Personnel very listening. They were all there for us . They offered us an airport ship for not gallery . I recommend without hesitation.
