Camel Pyramids View Inn

“اقامة سيئة جدا ولم اكمل مدة الاقامة رغم دفع ثمن الاقامة”

Nothing good. Everything was bad.

“BENE MA NON BENISSIMO”

The location was close to the Pyramids, yet like most places in the area it was dirty and noisy. The second room they gave me was spacious and the bed was comfortable, despite the other issues. The first room, a double with separate single beds, was small, very noisy (the glass was too thin) and the shower was basically a spray over the entire bathroom/WC and sink, so it flooded every time. Breakfast was poor, but that's fine. In the second room (I requested a change for an extra fee, which I had to negotiate via email and messages all day) the jacuzzi room, the bathroom was broken, it kept leaking for two days, so we ended up taking the bathroom bucket, putting the leaking shower in it, and had to empty it into the toilet bowl every few hours. The hot water system was also confusing; you have to turn it on yourself if you ever use the red button on the boiler. Bring earplugs to sleep. Never close the main entrance door of the apartment, otherwise you’ll be locked out like we were for half an hour at night, and that’s not a pleasant experience given the building where the rooms are. That door, which can be opened by anyone and could even steal your underwear, should always stay open. I didn’t close it, probably someone else did, but they made me feel guilty as if I had done it, so I deserved to be left out. When I asked why they don’t give guests a key to the main gate, I’m still waiting for a reasonable answer. Overall, it’s typical of how things are done in Egypt, unfortunately. I’d avoid the tours they offer, but almost everyone scams you.

“Would never stay in this appartment block again, far better in Cairo”

The view of the pyramids was good, but they claimed a car would pick us up, we were delayed getting our visa so we got a taxi to the apartment, it was now late, luckily the taxi called them as we had no way of getting in. He arrived and put us in a room, beautiful view but said we’d have to move tomorrow, no one showed we were packed and ready, moved the next morning, person in charge in bed so we had to wait, on arriving in room, 1 towel, no kettle, room was not prepared, disappointed, said when we wanted breakfast just ask the lady on the desk, went three times and no one there. Ended up leaving with no breakfast, but the trip guides we booked through the hotel bought breakfast for us. We contacted wanted to leave, really not happy, this was no holiday for us. The guy at the apartment apologized and gave us his direct WhatsApp, so thought okay couple more days, but that night we had a power cut, waited an hour, husband checked outside all lights on, we had to message this guy, and the power was put on immediately, then we had to send another message to say wifi not working and this came back immediately, he had the control. Wanted to leave this hotel, felt stressed and uncomfortable the whole time we were there the noise from the traffic outside was terrible.

“Desepcionant”

The views were nice, but our experience at this hotel in Cairo was very disappointing from the start. As soon as we arrived, they came to pick us up and the first problem was that we had booked two jacuzzi rooms, but only one was available in the building where we were staying. The other jacuzzi room was in another building/flat, about 5 minutes walking away. That means if we wanted both jacuzzi rooms we’d have to be physically separated, which is not practical or recommended. Given this situation, we were forced to take one jacuzzi room and another normal room next to it, which was very basic: a bed and a bathroom where the shower was integrated into the same space (no separation), so the whole bathroom got wet every time. A very poor installation. They did not refund the price difference. Also, the photos they have online do not match reality: the décor doesn’t exist, the jacuzzi advertised as double is for one person, and the marriage bed is two single beds together, with a divider in the middle and even uneven. The only positive point is the view of the pyramids, which is great. When they bring you breakfast there, it’s very uncomfortable to eat: one chair is broken and the other is not practical. Also, the breakfast has nothing to do with what they show: basic, low‑quality products poorly presented. During the 6 days of stay, they never cleaned our room once. They also didn’t change our towels, and they only gave us toilet paper if we asked. As for Wi‑Fi, it didn’t work when we arrived. They told us that if we wanted internet we’d have to pay about €25 for 3GB, but after we complained they activated it free of charge. This gives a clear impression that they tried to charge for a service that should have been included. Breakfast was always the same each day.

Everything was very good, the location is very close to the pyramids and many rooftops. Kareem took care of us very well, they handled our transfer to the airport and our tour to the pyramids, they got us a Spanish guide and a photographer who all behaved wonderfully. I forgot a watch and the reception lady returned it to me when I was waiting for the car at the airport, highly recommend, thank you very much. Everything was very good.
