Find 3-Star Hotels in Cairo

"The owner was really, really kind. He even went out to buy water and snacks for me. The place was very clean. It was close to the bus stop, so I didn't stay for one night, just washed up and rested. It didn't seem like a good place to sleep. The horn outside was too loud. However, it was clean and I really liked the owner, so I gave it five stars."

"I'm not sure why this hotel gets so many recommendations. In terms of room size and cleanliness, it was the most disappointing hotel of our trip! First, I wouldn't recommend the balcony room. It's tiny, and all you get is a balcony that overlooks a dirty, messy, enclosed alleyway, offering no view whatsoever. Second, the room truly is small. If you're traveling with two 28-inch suitcases, opening them up is a challenge. You might be able to fit one 28-inch suitcase by the window, but the other 24-inch one would have to stay by the door. And you'd have to close them up every time you wanted to open the door to enter or exit. Third, the bathroom drain had a really strong unpleasant smell, especially after being closed up all night. Even running the fan didn't help; it would just switch off after a short while. The hotel is quite new, and the overall service attitude was impeccable. However, breakfast was very basic, offering just coffee and tea with very limited choices – hardly any fruit or bread! It definitely doesn't compare to another hotel we stayed at for the same price. Also, the elevator doesn't go directly to your floor. It stops halfway between floors, so you have to climb a half-flight of stairs with your luggage."

"Very nice experience in Cairo for a first in Egypt, very beautiful monument to visit, we ate well there for not very expensive, we did not have time to do everything, to do again"

"I was so happy that they handled my late-night arrival so well. I was hoping to enjoy the cleanliness, which was unlike anything I'd seen in Egypt, but the one I'm currently dealing with... It's been a week since I bought it! Ever since I bought it, there's been something that's been bothering me."

"Wow, this place is really great and offers excellent value for money. The facilities are top-notch, and the other guests are very polite and respectful of personal space. The staff here are some of the best English speakers I've encountered in Egypt. They were incredibly caring and thoughtful when I asked them to help me communicate with locals. One lady even helped me loosely plan my itinerary for the next few days. I'd definitely love to come back and stay in one of their private rooms if I get the chance."

"I had a very satisfying stay here. First off, the location is excellent – right in the bustling heart of downtown Cairo, yet surprisingly quiet. It's just a 10-15 minute walk to the Egyptian Museum and a nearby metro station, and about a 20-minute stroll to the Nile River. There are plenty of restaurants and bakeries around, making dining and shopping very convenient. The room had a fully equipped kitchen, which was great for making breakfast, and there was a common lounge area on our floor. Getting to Cairo Airport by Uber only took about 30 minutes."

"Excellent place and great people I was visiting Cairo for several days to refresh old memories because I have lived in Zamalek 50 years ago. I looked for the hotel just somewhere in the heart of Northern part of Zamalek, and location at Taha Hussein street was the best possible option, so I have chosen The President hotel. I had just general expectations as from regular three star hotel, but staff and hotel amenities have exceeded my humble expectations far beyond! The room was very clean and spacious, slippers, toothbrush, shower supplies, teapot, tea, coffee bags, minibar - everything was very nice and provided. Starting from security at entrance and reception (I was put to the level where restaurant is for my convenience), everyone was very nice and polite to me. Housekeeping by Mohammed Eldeep was perfect. Service at breakfast was outstanding (and at dinner too), and chef Mitu had cooked the most delicious food with personal attention and kindness. And tour service provided by manager Dahy was beyond perfection - utmost and ultimately outstanding and fabulous. I was taking complex trips around the city and transfer to the airport. With the greatest scrutinous attention to details from Dahy I got excellent service and very professional drivers so my trips were exceptionally planned and fulfilled in time. To wrap up, I strongly recommend the President hotel due to mostly positive and splendid emotions I have received there during my 3-nights stay. Area has great infrastructure once you need 24/7 groceries, pharmacy or ATM. Don't recommend to drive in Zamalek, better take cab or walk."

"I had requested a pickup service in advance due to arriving at Cairo Airport at 3:30 AM, and had already made arrangements via WhatsApp. However, the pickup vehicle never showed up, and I called the hotel multiple times, but they didn't answer. I had no choice but to take an Uber, but the hotel was in an area that taxis couldn't access. I had to navigate Google Maps in the dark of the night. The staff was dozing off and didn't apologize for not sending a pickup. In fact, they overcharged me for early check-in. A week ago, I checked with a hotel in Athens, which didn't charge an early check-in fee. The hotel was far from the main street, so I decided to go to Kurzu on the Nile River, but the pickup driver couldn't find me. I contacted them multiple times, but they couldn't find my location, so we barely made it 30 minutes past our scheduled time. The room wasn't heated, and the heater was set to 22 degrees Celsius, so I shivered all night. The more I think about it, the more upset I become."

"Well located, on a street with a lot of atmosphere and food and metro areas. Also in the room you can't hear the noise from the street. They upgraded me to have a private bathroom, even though it was really small. Reception staff my friendly. Normal cleaning"
