Nothing

A perfect location and view right next to the pyramids and grand sphinx, about 15 minutes walk away. Very nice hotel well run by Sameh and family. Sameh also arranges a very affordable car and driver for private excursions, which is much better than dealing with the not so honest Uber drivers. I am returning there in a few days after staying in Luxor.

That said, he was a bit too intense about asking us to leave a review. Even after the trip, he kept sending messages insisting that we rate the place, which felt a little too much. Overall, a pleasant stay with a caring (and very eager) host.

The apartment itself was lovely — clean, well-equipped, and comfortable. However, the surrounding area wasn’t the nicest, though it was very convenient for visiting the pyramids, which was a big advantage. The host was extremely attentive and genuinely wanted us to feel comfortable, which we appreciated. He checked in frequently and made sure everything was okay during our stay.

Absolutely nothing

Everything was amazing and beyond imagination, starting with Mr Sameh the owner and the unmatched view and proximity to the Pyramids ! you can't be any closer to the Pyramids than that ! In Egypt this is definitely the place to go ! We just love it . The place is very cozy and has warm vibes ! Our room has the view of the Pyramids. The rooftop seating area with the Pyramids view in the morning and at night are out of this world !

The additional costs for tours added up to quite a lot of money, as you couldn't get to places without a car and driver. (Don't try to hire a car and drive yourself in Cairo or Giza - the traffic on the great network of freeways is fast and furious, with lots of sudden lane changes by locals in a hurry, and it would be very difficult for foreigners to drive around safely there.)

Location in Giza in a quiet street was good, with a spacious, comfortable room and bathroom. You could hear prayers and music sometimes from a nearby mosque, but it wasn't really a problem. The hotel was also near to some pyramids - walking distance. All the staff we encountered were friendly and helpful, as were the locals we met (though most locals understandably didn't speak English). Children played in the streets. The rooftop where meals were eaten was marvellous - we had a magical, close up view of one of the pyramids. A cool breeze there in the evening was very welcome. Breakfast was included in the price of accommodation. Other meals, if requested, were ordered by the hotel from local neighbourhood eateries (which cost next to nothing for locals) but were given a big markup for guests. The meals served were dearer than meals in Australia and poorer quality.

1. The wifi almost didn't work, so you have to rely on your mob data if you choose this hotel. 2. Uber drivers can't find the location, so you have to track it on google maps yourself and advise them. And if you order uber from that place, many drivers decline the ride and I had to go myself to find the driver because he got lost in the maze of streets. 3. There is no sign with the hotel name, it looks as a private property from the outside, I had to check the pictures on google maps to identify it, though i was standing in front of it. Same problem if you order tours with some companies 4. I wish they had more breakfast options, it's always the same and very basic, if you stay for several days

I loved the pyramids view from the rooftop terrace and the proximity to the location (10 mins walk to the entrance). The room was clean enough and there was everything i needed. The local neigbourhood didn't bother me, it's quite safe and the people are friendly.

We stayed at the Energy of pryramit hotel for three days. Sameh is a legendary man. He is very funny, helpful and friendly. We didn't have any problems. We felt like we were guests of our friend, not in a hotel. Everything was very nice. On the day our tour started early, he prepared fruit salad for us in the morning even though it was not compulsory. Thank you so much for everything. Before I forget, his niece Sheela is very sweet and friendly. We sang Turkish and Arabic songs and had fun together. It was a week to remember.

The hotel is nice, clean and well maintained. It is really in a walking distance from the pyramids and the Sphinx. From the room window and from the terrace also you can see the pyramids. The landlord is very friendly, helpful and caring. I can recommend this hotel and if I come to Cairo next time, I would definitely visit this hotel again.

The location of the hotel... The pyramids are quite close, but the area is full of ruind buildings, stray dogs It is not for europeans.

Neighborhood might seem a bit intimidating after dark but if you give it a chance it has its charm.

It is really a hidden gem. From the hotel tarrace you have an amazing view of the Pyramids. Moreover the neighborhood is very quiet at night, and you are only around the corner from the plateau. But the best of the best about this place is very attentive staff. Owner will do anything to help you out we had to check yin late, check out in the middle of thr night and yet he was always there to help.

This family run hotel is a hidden treasure. The rooms are new and practically furnished. Mine had direct pyramid view. But the highlight is the spacious terrace close to the Great Pyramyde for having breakfast or relaxing in the beautiful, local Bedouin seating area. Simply great. The charismatic owner Sameh also has all the tips and hints for the best experiences in and around Cairo.

I have a good feeling with this hotel and the staff but i was obliged to make a review under the pressure of the owner which is not fair.

The view on the pyramids straight from the room. The rooftop has an increduble sight. The staff is very friendly.

This place was great! We first struggled to find a hotel in this area because many hotels are scammers. Then we found this place from Sameh, and it was such a relief! Sameh makes you feel home, we played card games in the evening on the rooftop. The view from there is great. Even from our room we could see a bit of the pyramid. The breakfast was good, Sameh was considerate of our dietary wishes. Room is simple but good, and we didn't have any problems. Communication is also good! We wi be back soon for another night in Cairo/Giza. Thanks Sameh!

The road way back to hotel is a bit scary during nighttime (because this hotel is located in the middle of a residential area), but i think its safe At last we cannot see the fireworks (because the government didn’t officially announce that the firework is cancelled). This is the most disappointing point for the stay, but that really doesn’t belong to sameh’s fault. I just want to leave a comment in the internet that 2024 egypt firework has been cancelled without short notice.

This hotel (to be precise it is a BnB)is definitely worth for visit! At the beginning, Sameh came down to pick us up and helped us to take care of our heavy luggage. He shows his hospitality to us and we can feel that he is a good man. He also tries to recommend tours for us with really good price(although we have other plans at last, his price is really good and having a local tour guide to visit pyramids actually save you some time costs if you just travel by yourself) The room is clean and the bed is comfortable. The bathroom is really big too! Sameh tries to host a party for us and other resident (because we want to see the countdown fireworks). He tries to organise all the things for us, including food and peformance, those elements are really good! In general, rooms are good, with good views (from the rooftop is really good reviews) and the host is really nice.
