"Marriot Mena House was great. Although it’s one of the oldest hotels in Cairo it did not feel old or outdated. The property was immaculate and service was amazing. I stayed in a Premium Pyramid View room. I cannot think of a better way to spend a few nights in Cairo."

"If you’re looking for a front row seat to the pyramids, this is it! The decor of the hotel is like a museum, you’ll be surrounded by Pharoes and walls in hieroglyphics. You’ll be greeted by the friendliest staff! Manaa at the front desk was super helpful, he went above and beyond to make my stay perfect! And Omar at the rooftop restaurant had a smile that will light up anyone’s day. Make sure you ask for them! Comfy, clean rooms, hot (very hot) water, a/c, complimentary water, and a breakfast...

"Popular location with a lot of food 5 minute walking distance and other hotels. Staff were friendly and spoke english plus the bar uptop was nice. The only downside is that if your room is on the 3rd floor, under the bar. It will be difficult to sleep as you're hear a lot of chairs/table moving constantly but that's why i travel with earbuds to block the noise."

"Had a lovely room and beautiful view, you can tell the hotel is dated but my room was clean and comfortable. They are clearly understaffed, lots of waiting time for reception. Breakfast is great and the omelette chef was wonderful. His smile made my day and he made the best omelettes. The rooftop bar was great and the pool area very good. What was a real downer when I left was I got an email calling me Dear Mr/Ms and that was really rude and hurtful. "
