The staff at the Cosmopolitan work assiduously to provide the best service for their guests. The rooms are clean The breakfast buffet is excellent. The hotel is strategically located near the Egyptian Museum, the Nile River and the railway/subway metro. This hotel is a great value for the money and has an "old" school charm.

Very nice stay.

It was good overall. Just several of the staff, at the front door and restaurant were not friendly nor attentive. Rather they just were engrossed on their phones. Omar at the front desk was fantastic, really making us feel welcome and spoke very good English. Breakfast was very good, coffee decent and chef very nice. Oddly the others would just stand around chatting or on phones and offer no service. Bell boys were nice. Very nice sitting lounge.

Good location and clean room

The location of hotel is excellent and room is very clean and quiet. The furniture in the room is bit old fashion, but compare the room rate no complain. Only negative feedback is shower room floor is very slippy, I would like to suggest the hotel to arrange a rubber mat to avoid any accident to happen.

The only neverive is that the hotel forgot to have us picked up at the airport. 5 hours later and $500 poorer and we arrived at the hotel. From that time on, the hotel was very nice. The housekeeping staff was excellent. The beds were comfortable and the location right in the downtown area. Very opulent looking lobby.

The hotel is an old-fashioned decorated hotel, very nice. The only "minor" is the main elevator, also "old-fashioned". It needs to be closed manually, which some customers seem to forget. Location is also good.

The location is good. The room is quite spacious (booked the junior suit) but the bathroom is very small, the shower sink is not working properly (water drain very slowly). The furniture, carpet (in/out) are very old. The staff are ok (not very friendly). The price is not bad (not a peak season). Overall, 5/10.

2 star hotel level

Wifi is super slow. Amenity like shampoo and body soap is cheap, not 4-star hotel amenities. No tooth brush. The room card can not be used after 1 day, i have to ask for change in reception. Breakfast is good with my expectation and some variations. Overall i think it is a 2 star hotel.

We chose this hotel based on excellent location in the heart of Cairo downtown. You can comfortably handle the whole downtown by foot, stores, restaurants, museum, etc. Area is typical Cairo-downtown and somewhat chaotic, but we found it safe day and night. Hotel has guards outside, no worries there. Hotel itself is comfortable, in interesting old style, clean with functional but somewhat small rooms. Especially unique is the elevator, a must see! It is a compromise between smaller and cheaper places (loud) in downtown that are perhaps more appropriate for younger visitors, and more upscale and expensive ones (mostly further away, you need taxi to get to center). As the idea was to explore Cairo and use hotel mostly for a good nights sleep, this turned out to be a good choice. Free buffet style breakfast is extensive, coffee not something to brag about. Room was clean and attended daily, bathroom renovated. Our room was reasonably quiet, except some dog barking. In Cairo hotels, outside noise during night is something that needs to be paid attention to as there are a lot of complaints from visitors from other hotels in downtown - but this hotel is located somehow a short stretch into a small street that is blocked by the hotel so it is not an issue. Shortly - we found this hotel to be a good choice if you are there to explore Cairo.

I stayed here for a number of days, the night with this Wotif booking and number of days with G Adventures, including booking extra days after, it being their base hotel for Cairo nights of Highlights of Egypt 14 day tour. The hotel is interesting in decor. You've got I'm guessing pith helmet era English, Spanish, French aristocrats portraits on the wall who I'm guessing explored ancient Egypt sites, otherwise odd choice in Egypt. Lift is interesting old era one. Rooms I experienced a few varied, some were better designed, especially the bathroom. But aircon works, showers are decent, beds comfortable. No pool or anything really to do other than sit on chairs in lobby or on floors near lift so just stay in your room as the hotel is a sort of safe sanctuary in this neighborhood. Area outside you get constantly hassled walking around, "where you from?" "Come see my shop," What you want to buy" "spend all your money here" or followed around wherever you go by people expecting money for doing so even though you've told them you want to walk by yourself. One guy even kicked me because I wouldn't give him any (I'd told him constantly "I'm being blunt with you I'm not giving you any money" He's like is okay I just walking with you but then wants money at the end, acting like he was my guide. Likewise places around area you buy food, credit card machine suddenly isn't working, the bill has extra items in there. Staff at Hotel Cosmopolitan though are great.
