Fantastic location on Zamalek Island, offering beautiful views of the Nile. Tastefully decorated room with thoughtful touches and a spacious bathroom. Easy communication with the hosts via WhatsApp, ensuring a smooth stay. Convenient access to shops, museums, and markets, with affordable transportation options.
No negatives.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel. Waking up on the Nile every morning was a dream come true. The view from the balcony was breathtaking, especially while sipping my morning tea. The hotel staff was incredibly thoughtful and made sure I had everything I needed. They even provided a WhatsApp chat for easy communication, which was very convenient. The location felt safe, and even though it was a little tricky to find at first, they sent me an amazing video that guided me right to the entrance. The hotel facilities were top-notch, and cleanliness was impeccable. The staff went above and beyond to make my stay comfortable and enjoyable.
Central location with easy access to Uber. Well-equipped kitchen with a water cooler. Great views of the Nile. Attentive and helpful security staff. Quick and helpful communication with the hosts. Eclectically and beautifully decorated Loft Room. Thoughtful touches such as bedroom slippers and toiletries. Feel safe with a guard on the property at all times. Close proximity to shops, museums, and markets. Lovely private garden on the river.
Nothing.
I had an incredible stay at this unique accommodation on the Nile. The hosts went above and beyond to make me feel welcome, providing fresh fruit, slippers, and even earplugs in case of noise. They also had a convenient folder with maps and local services. The atmosphere was charming and the riverside mooring was both peaceful and centrally located. I'm already excited for my next visit!
Absolutely nothing to say about dislikes.
