Best Hotels in Abu Sir, Egypt

I charted this hotel on Google Maps trying to find an alignment between Cheops Pyramid, the front of the Sphynx and some rooftop or balcony. The answer seemed obviously The Pyramids View Inn. It was surprisingly (suspiciously) cheap, and didn’t look too fancy from the outside… But the photos inside were much better and the view was either Photoshopped or out of this world. The reviews were amazing, so I decided against staying in downtown Cairo and going to Giza, as close to the pyramids as I could be without actually sleeping inside one of them, Best travel decision, EVER! The staff was friendly since we started exchanging emails about airport transfers and tours. I was a bit scared of the arrival at the airport at 2am and the possibility that there could be no one waiting for me, but outside the airport after saying no to a dozen Taxi drivers inside, my driver was there with a sign with my name. Don’t feel disoriented with so many drivers from hotels with name looking neatly the same. The sign will have this hotel name as it is written here and your own name. It only got better from then on. Super friendly and honest staff, clean room, THAT AMAZING VIEW, both from the room and the rooftop where you can get à plentiful breakfast and some night drinks there (don’t expect alcohol in an Islamic republic) You can actually see the Pyramids Light and Show perfectly or even better from the hotel than on-site. Just pray you get it on your language while you are there. Everyday was in a different language while I was there. Book the tours at the hotel too. You can find many offers online, hardly a better driver and guide than the ones I got. Friendly, professional, helpful. I was alone in Egypt and they (tour and hotel staff) welcomed me as my new best friends. On the Gyza tour, you will be taken to some local Businesses with high quality papyrus and oil scents. Don’t feel forced to buy anything and expect some high prices there, It will be hard though not to spend as many money on souvenirs as on the rest of the trip. If you really don’t want to spend some big buck on excellent products just say no or skip visiting those two sites, but you will miss learning how to make a papyrus sheet. You can do three tours in two days (Cairo cultural sights, Ancient Egypt historical sites and Nile Dinner cruise). if you manage to go to the desert after flying for a day. There was another option with a sleepover on some Bedouin Oasis which I skipped. The hotel surrounding may feel intimidating when you arrive, with high police apparatus and the local salesperson that really hassle you. The best place to buy souvenirs is right next door to the hotel. Look for the window with the No Hassle sign. The owner is charming, educated, respectful of your word. and offers great prices. Travel light and keep room in your luggage to take home the stuff you buy here. Oh, and bless the room air conditioning.and keep hydrated at all times. I am not sure if I’ll ever be retur

It is a villa-style hotel with a very good environment. The breakfast at the hotel is very Egyptian. It is a very good experience.

It's like a paradise in Cairo, dirty and messy outside, quiet and beautiful inside, and the security at the door is very strict. The pyramid landscape garden is so beautiful, and there is also an outdoor heated swimming pool, which looks very luxurious in the desert. There are many old photos of the hotel where celebrities have stayed. The service was very good and the room was comfortable. The disadvantage is that the water is not hot enough and the water is not large enough. In addition, it is a bit far to take a taxi from the city. Sometimes the taxi you get does not know that the hotel needs to drive in, so you need to call the driver and ask the hotel security to help communicate.

If you wanna wake up with a fantastic pyramid view then this is the right place, but don't expect much from the hotel, The guys at the reception will try to sell you overpriced tours to the pyramids that are absolutely not necessary, guides can't entry the pyramids, so you will have a person only rushing you around, just buy the 2 tickets in front of the hotel and you will be perfectly fine, uber works perfectly in Cairo.

The experience in the hotel has been amazing!! We received an incredible service from everyone but specially from Manna who has been a star in everything. He gave us an upgrade, we had amazing views on the first line just in front of the pyramids, with a balcony and the room was big and clean. We had problems with our tour booked with another agency and he resolved everything from his amazing agency and we enjoyed the day around the best places in Cairo historical areas. We received the best service and we will be forever grateful. We fully recommend this experience. The price of the room with breakfast included, the views and the tour were great. The quality of the tour has been superb. Somos españolas y estamos disfrutando infinito del viaje!!! Gracias!!

This hotel is located near the pyramids, it is all bungalow style, in the lower floor. Gardens are beautiful and the pool well. The very friendly service always. We have loved it and we will come back. If your main plan is to visit Cairo, this hotel is 45 minutes by taxi.

Love everything of our staying in your hotel , except the intensity of the water supply from the shower head is a bit weak.

So we had scoped out around the streets and we noticed this hotel was nice, its stood out but not in a Hilton sort of way. Very lit up and modern outside and inside. Staff was very friendly and breakfast was pretty decent. The balcony facing the pyramids are by far one of the most amazing views in my life. It felt like I could throw a rock to the trail leading up to the pyramids. Its still a solid walk in the heat to the pyramids but if you can get transport or book a tour visiting the pyramids, this would be best. Room was great, as modern as you can generally be in Egypt. We accidently turned off the button to the water heater which we thought was the bathroom light and never flipped it back. Would be nice to know what that button was for as I had a cold shower but Im used to them. Bed is REALLY firm... however it still was comfortable and you fall asleep when your tired no problem. I would definitely stay here again. Get the balcony, its worth the view.
