Super friendly staff, great location walking distance to local shops, food, Nile and Egyption Museum. Also great location for exploring wider Cairo as its in the centre. Hotel staff arranged airport transfers and tours all at good prices withel good service, and felt safer than street vendors.

I have stayed here many times and that is why I come back. The staff are good especially Hany the day time Manager and the lovely chef. I was in touch before I arrived with the hotel driver via WhatsApp. I sent him my flight details etc. He assured me that the hotel car would meet me at the airport. He did not show up and he didn't answer my WhatsApp message. Not a great start, I was disappointed as it was supposed to be a free shuttle for a three night stay. I had to make other arrangements late at night after thirty hours of travel. I also asked for a double bed and overlooking Tahrir Square. I received a room overlooking the gas station and a room with two single beds. Slightly disappointed with this stay.

I like the place, the location the staff are good. I saw some of the cockroaches, but they changed my room right away, and they sprayed and cleaned. Overall it’s amazing, close to cairo museum, nile river, cairo tower, tahir square. More or less 20 minutes drive to citadel, St. Simon Monastery, khan el-khalili,

Hotel is in a very good location with good view of the Nile and the Egyptian Musuem. Hotel is simple and clean and suitable for night stay for those who want to explore the city. Breakfast is basic. The chef and his assistant need to smile more.

We are disappointed with our experience at City View Hotel. When we arrived at the hotel, they said they were overbooked and didn’t have room for us, even though we had a confirmation from Expedia and had booked our room over a month in advance. That was not a fun thing to hear after a long, tiring day of traveling. We ended up having to walk to another hotel with all of our luggage. There was no warning from them before we got there to check in - they could have at least messaged us so we could have taken our taxi to the other hotel instead of having to walk. Also, the airport shuttle is NOT free, as Expedia advertised. It is 500 LE one way.

Nice and convenient place to stay. Close to Museum. All staff was incredible nice and helpful. Staff was accommodating to our needs and requests. Thanks everybody working there Didn't like the traffic and music noise every night, but was so tired from sightseeing, was able to sleep regardless. Didn't like the daily 2 hour power outs, but that wasn't something the hotel had control over. Overall a good value for the money.

Nice place to stay for a budget. Near the museum and the center of Cairo. You can walk everywhere without problem. The room was clean but the noise coming from the street never stops. (Think about this small before booking). The staff was super friendly and helped me out with some recommendations.

Good location. Helpful staff and food prices are very reasonable. Laundry service is excellent. One thing you have to consider when staying in this property is the never ending traffic noise. And don’t forget to ask to make up your room because it’s not automatic. Overall, this is a good property to stay.

To western eyes, this place initially looks shady, but it's actually quite nice. The staff are great, and the room we had was large and clean. The weekend street noise made it very difficult to sleep, but I guess downtown Cairo is like that.
