Room was exceptionally clean, the staff was friendly, and they brought us whatever we needed. We even needed a doctor during our stay and they have one on site who came to our room and also provided the prescriptions he wrote instead of us having to go to the pharmacy. And even on top of that, when we did end up needing the pharmacy, the hotel coordinated deliver that came within 30mins. Amazing. We also had a special anniversary dinner that the hotel Egyptian restaurant went all out to make such a special event with a peivate gazebo on the Nile, complete with flowers, candles, a heater for the chilly night, and a special anniversary cake that was delicious. We had such a great time. I would highly recommend. Very personal service. We were. Treated as VIPs the whole time!!

Very nice room with Nile view. Aircon was a bit temperamental and at night it was rather hot especially as there was quite a heavy duvet on the bed. Breakfast was good and the coffee very good! We ate at Kebabgy on two evenings and the food was interesting and very well cooked. We enjoyed it very much. Parts of the pool area do need attention. Around the edge is broken in places and could be dangerous. However, the temperature of the pool was perfect.
