    The location is excellent! The hotel is very clean and the beds are comfortable. We didn't have breakfast in our reservation so I don't know what it is like. We arrived late at night and the guy at the reception was very helpful, unfortunately I can't remember his name but he helped us a lot with everything we asked him. If we visit Cairo again, we will definitely stay there.

    The only thing I don't like is the entrance to the apartment where the hotel is located. But it's quite reasonable for the price.

    The hotel is on the upper floors of an apartment building, very clean, quiet and safe. The staff is attentive and friendly. It is a hotel I can stay at again.

    Nothing, actually, at the beginning when I saw the building, a bit old I said omg, it might be a scam, but once I entered there and I saw the rooms I felt relieved and I really liked it. Definitely recommend it and I will always stay there whenever I go to Cairo.

    Clean, comfortable and the location was amazing! Nearby Talaat harb and Tahrir square 5min walk. Accessible and you don’t get lost, it’s just right to the National Bank of Egypt ( the new building) sherif st. The staff were super nice, young, and energetic, super friendly ! Especially Ibrahim the guy whom I had most interaction with! He is so welcoming and helpful and he was treating us very nicely and whenever we needed help he was always there for us🫶🏻

    The building is old, but what to expect for downtown Cairo. Cleaning and refill only on request. The room has a fresh painting smell, which I believe was because of recent renovation.

    This is the review for my second stay. Centrally located. Next to the bank building that gets secured all day. The rooms were on the side street, so not that loud. Very friendly employees. Did not bother us at all for selling extra activities. Airco and fridge. Hard mattress, which I prefer. Had a balcony.

    WiFi was not that strong. Clean up the room only on request.

    After I spend hours and hours searching in Booking reviews from different hotels, we booked this one. We had a great time staying there without issues. I gave a call in advance to confirm the late check in and they answered the phone and confirmed that there is 24h reception. We got a twin room at the end as we were 2 friends, but it was fine as the room was on a side alley and you don’t hear much of the traffic. The reception is on 3rd floor. The room we got was on 4th with a balcony. Same photos as in booking. Renovated room. They did not bother us at all selling tours and everyone was super friendly. Airco and fridge works perfectly. In downtown was very easy to walk around. We had no issue. At the end I made an additional reservation for 3 extra nights.

    The only thing that I did not really like was the fact that you could hear others in their rooms, the space underneath the door was open which made it easer for the sound to come in.

    In general, I liked my stay in Sky Light Hotel, the property was in the center of the city which made it easer for me to walk to most of the places and also use the Metro to move around. The staff were very friendly "huge thanks to Ibrahim, Amal and Fatima for their friendliness and hospitality. special thanks for Mr. Said who provided recommendations on attractions and his Arabic coffee offer.

    Maybe a sign on the ground floor to say to go up to the 3rd floor for reception. Other than that there was nothing I didn't like

    This hotel was perfect for my stay in Cairo. It was in a great part of the city with lots of things within walking distance. The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. The shower had good water pressure and stayed hot the whole time.

    The hotel is located right in the most NOISIEST place, the windows are due to be replaced 😜

    There was a lots of available shops/markets around the area. The staff were super helpful and kind especially Ibrahim (he came and showed us the nearest market). 😀

    My stay at Skylight Hotel in Cairo was absolutely exceptional! From the moment I arrived until the day I left, everything was perfect. The hotel is spotlessly clean, well-organized, and the rooms are spacious, comfortable, and equipped with everything you might need. What truly made my experience unforgettable was the outstanding hospitality of the staff — especially Ibrahim and Haneen. Their kindness, professionalism, and warm attitude made me feel completely at home. It’s rare to find such genuine and caring service. I highly recommend this hotel, whether you’re visiting for business or leisure. I’m definitely planning to return soon. A heartfelt thank you to the entire team, and especially to Ibrahim and Haneen — you are truly the heart of Skylight Hotel!
