Top Cairo Hotel Reviews

Sofitel Cairo Downtown Nile

Sofitel Cairo Downtown Nile

10/10 Excellent
"I throughly researched available hotels in this area for my planned bday celebration in Cairo, Egypt and I decided on the Sofitel Nile. Upon my arrival and viewing of the hotel’s lobby, I knew that I had made the right decision. From my Check In, until my Check Out, everything was smooth and perfect. This hotel is nicely decorated. The room lay outs are perfect and there are enough restaurants/bar onsite, that you never have to leave the hotel. Again, I made the right decision. I hope this helps the next person(s) considering this hotel."
