3-Star Hotels in Cairo

Great for families, everything is close by and it's very quiet – no car horns or anything. You'll need a car though. There's a supermarket and a laundry service nearby. If you order by phone, they'll deliver right to the hotel, which is convenient. The only thing missing is a small rug or carpet in the room, as it's all tiled.

A very enjoyable experience from beginning to end. We received a warm welcome from the manager when we arrived, and the reception team was helpful throughout our stay. The room was clean, bright and comfortable, and housekeeping did a good job keeping everything tidy. I was also happy to see that the hotel looked like the photos we had seen before booking. The elevator was working perfectly and getting to our room was easy. The central location was very convenient for exploring Cairo, and we felt safe and comfortable during our stay. What impressed us most was the friendly attitude of the staff and the attention they gave to their guests.

Pros: The hotel's location is excellent, right next to Khan el-Khalili, just a 3-minute walk away. The hotel is located in an alley, so vehicle access is not very convenient. Breakfast is served as a set menu, and the portions are generous. The owner and staff are also very enthusiastic. The triple room we booked was just the right size. Cons: Because it's close to Khan el-Khalili, the surrounding environment isn't great. There's also a mosque nearby, which has regular prayer calls.

If you mean what does a 4/5 review mean, it generally means very good / great, with some limitations or room for improvement. One review methodology, for example, describes 4/5 as “dependable,” while another maps it to “great.” If you mean what does a 4/5 review mean, it generally means very good / great, with some limitations or room for improvement.

The room has an amazing view of the promenade and the site where the Lighthouse of Alexandria once stood. The room itself is a bit dated, but the view, the veranda, and the price more than make up for it.

1. The location is good, within walking distance to the Egyptian Museum, subway, and kazaz, which is a 1.3km walk from gobus tahir station, which is very downtown. 2. The hotel has an elevator, which is very rare. I have stayed in a nearby hotel which is also located in an old house. There is no elevator and I need to carry my luggage. The elevator is not big enough to accommodate about 4 people (without luggage), but it is much better than climbing stairs by yourself. 3. There is one triple room and one double room. The triple room is quite spacious and the standard room is not large enough. 4. There is no hot water kettle or hair dryer in the room, you can ask for it at the front desk, but the number of these two items in the entire hotel is limited, so I waited for a long time... 5. It’s more cost-effective to pay in US dollars than in Egyptian pounds. The exchange rate for paying Egyptian pounds is not so good. 6. Breakfast starts at 8:00. If you want to go to the Black and White Desert, the driver usually picks up at 7:30. If you don’t have time to eat breakfast, you can go to the rooftop restaurant to pack some (the restaurant is still preparing breakfast at 7:30, and the things that can be packed are limited. Eggs, bread, flatbread, jam, that’s all)

Afnan Cairo Airport is a decent budget option, but it’s not without its quirks. The location is super convenient—just 2 miles from the airport, making it great for layovers ✈️. The cleanliness was impressive; my single room and shared spaces were spotless. However, the service was hit or miss—the staff was friendly but seemed overwhelmed at times. Facilities like the gym? Nonexistent, so don’t expect to work out here.. The street noise made sleeping a challenge, and occasional water issues were frustrating. Overall, it’s okay for a short stay if you’re not too picky. Budget-friendly but basic!

I stayed at this hotel again after returning from Hurghada, mainly because of its convenience. The receptionist was as welcoming as ever, and his ”welcome back” was just right. A very handsome young man at the front desk also showed me to my room. I booked a single room, which was a bit small and cramped, but it had a private bathroom for easy showering. I tried the Lebanese and Egyptian restaurants near the hotel, both of which were quite good.

An exclusively serine environment in proximity to nearly everything you need. It was fantastic

Great hotel for price
