"The motel and staff were wonderful. The surrounding area is just like you see on news. There is dead cats, dogs and a lot of trash on the sidewalks. Children and adults begging for money. Can not walk feet without someone trying to sell you something. And no doesn't mean much to them. So if you are not ready to see the real world it's not for you. For me it opened my eyes 😟. But on other note all the guided tours are awesome."

Top Cairo Hotel Reviews

The St. Regis Cairo

The St. Regis Cairo

10/10 Excellent
"Our stay at the St. Regis Cairo exceeded every expectation. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel like royalty. ​The cleanliness of the room was remarkable; housekeeping clearly takes great pride in their work. We also thoroughly enjoyed the dining—every meal was delicious, fresh, and beautifully presented. ​The standout of our trip, however, was the service. Nancy from the Concierge team was incredibly knowledgeable and went above and beyond to help us navigate the city. Her recommendations were spot on and her professional, warm demeanor was much appreciated. If you are looking for luxury paired with a staff that truly cares, this is the place to be."
