Housekeeping needs a lot of improvement , also WIFI is useless, you cannot do anything with it. Poor communication, sent multiple messages through expedia to the hotel and they never replied. Rooms are too small. Some of the staff are really rude specially at the restaurant. The only good thing about it is the airport shuttle.

The location is good, very close to the airport. Free shuttle to the airport. The rooms are very old and sofa in the room needs a revamp as it looks quite dirty. The beds and pillows are ok, not the most comfortable. The room is very tight. Its ok if you have one night for a limited hours before a flight but not for anything more than that. Whilst we were told the shuttle is 24 hrs we had to wait for a long time and make several visits to the front desk to ask where the shuttle was! Looks like they call the driver once people have come down for the shuttle!! So plan in advance and dont leave it to too late!

I stayed at Novotel Cairo Airport for one night before travelling north for a wedding in Marsa Matouh, and overall I found the experience was a bit disappointing. First, it was very difficult to find the hotel shuttle on arrival at the airport; there were no clear signs or instructions. I ended up getting on a different hotel’s shuttle, and while the driver kindly dropped me at the Novotel hotel gates, I had to drag my heavy suitcase uphill to reception while staff looked on without offering any help. Check-in was also not welcoming. The reception staff came across as quite rude and unhelpful, which I initially assumed might be cultural but this impression changed once I interacted with the restaurant and bar staff, who were warm, friendly and professional. The room was a good size and the bed was comfortable, but the cleanliness wasn’t up to standard. I found hairs in the shower, the room smelled of old cigarette smoke and it would probably benefit from some refurbishment. Also the lack of blackout curtains and a bright purple light from the courtyard shining in all night made it difficult to sleep. Security was tight (bags scanned on entry), which felt reassuring. We had the buffet lunch, which offered a good range of options at a reasonable price. The small shops in reception were convenient, though limited in variety. Overall, the location is convenient for the airport, but the poor welcome, dated facilities, and cleanliness issues mean I probably wouldn’t stay again.
