    Wifi was only working in the lobby. Also, it was a bit confusing when getting here because it is also Villa Khufu. Not sure if they changed the name or if they had two properties. Also keep in mind that you have a great location but it is off road-ish. Ubers and walking on your own can be an experience.

    Everyone working there was really nice and attentive. For breakfast choices I tried two of them and my favorite was the egyptian breakfast. They have different tour options but you have to ask.

    It was next to impossible to find the hotel because the name of the hotel we reserved via Booking was not the actual name of the hotel! It took a very persistent taxi driver and the help of many, many locals, to EVENTUALLY find the place. There were no rooms available when we arrived (despite us emailing them beforehand asking to re-reconfirm our room). We were relocated to the hotel across the street for the first night as a result. Still, when we went back to the original hotel, they said the type of room we had reserved for didn’t and gave us a very small one. It took a lot of insistence from our part to get a larger room. We did get a large room, but it was very noisy (next to reception). In all fairness, the rooms were very clean and the beds were comfortable. Also of note, the staff was very kind at all times and the top floor terrace was OK. We booked one of the tours offered by the hotel, which turned into a disaster: the original tour guide faked a sickness (so obvious) and sent someone else in his place. The new “guide” turned out to be someone in training (or so they said) who spoke very little English, so we ended up guiding ourselves. The person barely knew the history of the places we went to and would basically search Google for information. :(

    It is hard to find the location, either for me and the taxi driver. And it has two names, so confusing. I cannot use the hot water in the morning, maybe it was same on that area. A few minutes later, i had trouble to use cold water too. I think that was not the problem of the hotel. An

    I've got the larger room that i expected. And i can easily check in very late, at about 2am. Also the staff is so kind. There are many waters in the room, and the breakfast was cool, even if it takes some time..

    One member of staff was quite rude and seemed to have an issue with lone women travellers. He made md feel uncomfortable and close to tears twice. One time banging on my door telling me to leave the room and today informing me very late that I could not book again. I've been booking night by night as I had an issue with my visa I was trying to fix before I fly home. Other hotel staff told me there was a room so this member of staff lied. I left as I felt so upset and uncomfortable. 😔

    I liked the view of the Pyramids and the bed was comfortable. The staff are lovely, kind and helpful especially Mohammad and the boys who work on rooftop.

    There was a confusion at start and they tried to give us a smaller room or pay extra but I showed them my reservation where it states how many beds and that was rectified. More expensive to book tours ect through hotel but that's normal.

    Amazing location....you can walk to the pyramids and not use a guide. Rooftop great. Staff helpful. Comfortable beds and rooms. Breakfast was plentiful and delicious. The price was incredible!

    The area is very run down and clearly development is ongoing with the pyramid site that is impacting the area. Locals nice and kind but it did not always feel safe/comfortable and the roaming dogs could be an issue on a walk to the main road.

    Staff were helpful and welcoming. Great rooms and had no issue with any facilities. Amazing view of pyramids.

    We had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The location is excellent — close to everything we needed and perfect for exploring the area. The staff were incredibly friendly and went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. It’s very kid-friendly, which made travelling as a family so much easier, and the breakfast was absolutely lovely. We’ll definitely be coming back!

    The streets around the hotel are a bit rough but hopefully the municipality will improve the area soon. They should. However, this is not the hotel's fault.

    the VIew

    Overall, it was a good experience. The Grand Pyramids View Hotel, now known as Kafuu Villa, had very nice and helpful staff. However, getting a taxi was a bit difficult because the hotel is located very close to the pyramids, at the end of a road with limited access. For transportation, I recommend using the iDrive app in Egypt — it’s cheap, safer, and more convenient than trying to hail a taxi on the street. There’s also a local shop nearby, which is great for buying essentials at local prices. If you’re on a budget, you might also find cheaper hotel options in the surrounding area.

    The hotel is not existed they are totally fake , same location same pic same everything but the name is changed when we reach to the hotel they said this is different hotel not the grand pyramids view hotel and we don’t have any room go and book some another hotel totally scam don’t book with them ❌❌❌❌❌❌

    They are registered on the booking.com and we saw the good ratings and booked a room 3months in advance and paid full amount when we reach to the location they sent to us there was no hotel at the location , there is another hotel with another name but the pics are same they put on the booking.com it was very horrible that you travel for 8hours with family and you saw there is no hotel i ask the staff they say this is not the hotel you book this is another hotel named khufu villa because the owner is changed now we don’t have any other room and they don’t give us the room and said to book another hotel never never never book this hotel ( THE GRAND PYRAMIDS VIEW HOTEL ) ❌❌ after all when we do a long argument and raised our voice then the arrange us a another hotel nearby but this was very bad experience overall I recommend that whenever you are going to book a hotel please search it on different sites if it existed on 3-4 sites and also on google after all the research than make the decision we search it on 1 site and google map and also message them to get location but these people are totally fake , i will not recommend you to book this hotel

    We were sent to another guest house really bad without hot water due to unavailability, wanting me to pay the full amount and stay there. I had to argue with the manager on the phone so we could at least move to the place we booked the day after. There are many places with the same name so be careful where you head, we couldn't even find the hotel and had to book a room somewhere else.

    Hardly anything

    There was nothing to not like my whole experience was amazing and even a free taxi ride to the airport :)

    The hotel was so much better than I imagined from what I seen online, the staff are such a lovely family who go above and beyond to make you feel at home. if I could rate the hotel 12/10 I would. It has to be the closest hotel to the pyramids in Giza, without a doubt the energy of the place is so magical and the view of the great pyramid is amazing. The breakfast on a morning was lovely I choose the Egyptian one every time. When leaving I was offered a massage which was a lovely touch for anyone before flying home but I was in a bit of rush for the airport so unfortunately had to say no, but next time for sure as I will defiantly visit this magical place and hotel again.

    The double room that was not a deluxe room had a very awkward shower space, and we had no hot water after the first night. No one came to assist us after telling them there was a problem. The plug points were lacking and in very awkward positions.

    We liked the location of the property with the rooftop view of the pyramids. Its location was close enough to go to the pyramids without a guide. The breakfasts were hearty with a good variety for all tastes. The concierge was helpful with regards to tours, airport transfers, taxis etc and even came to look for us after getting lost coming home in a tuk tuk
