Staff were pleasant and helpful, felt safe during my stay. Placement of the windows in some of the rooms is a bit odd, way too high, and impossible to see outside.

The view of the Pyramids from your hotel room and roof top was amzing. Being on the main road lots of traffic noise at night. Wifi was very bad and kept coming and going, even though staff kept saying it was fixed. Breakfast options are not the greatest. Dinner options not great either and very expensive compared to the local restaurants

Overall our stay was average. The location to the Pyramids are amazing. The look of the area outside was dirty. Inside the property the pictures are misleading placed on the website and does not live up the the pictures. The rooms are very average and run down. The window in my room was broken and it took the staff close to 4 days to fix temporarily. It is a busy road and the noise from the open window was distracting to get a good nights rest. Breakfast options are limited and half of the items are not available. The reception staff where average but the restaurant staff where really helpful, esp. a staff member called Najadim. He was extremely friendly. The views from the rooms where excellent. Overall a very average stay. Good for about 2 days max.

Nice View
Amazing view but outdated room. AC was not working and the bathroom is somewhat dirty. They forced everyone to pay for the USD 20 New Year’s dinner which started late and sub par food. Be aware that they will try to deceive you to pay in cash even though they accept CC.

The hotel is just so dirty and dusty. The worst is when we got know that there is no water. The receptionist just said there is water cut in city and just hung up. It is the hotel's duty to make sure there is alternative solution or to at least inform it's patrons.

What an amazing hotel. This hotel's position and view in Giza are probably, and I kid you not, one of the best on the planet. If you want to wake up in the morning and see the last ancient wonder of the world right in front of you, book your stay now. The hotel is clean and the staff are excellent, especially Alaa and Toffy. We were stunned by this hotel and please note that Google street view is not up-to-date so don't let it put you off. Overall the best experience we have had as frequent travellers. Well done and Thank you Turquoise Pyramids Hotel.

You can’t beat the price for the amazing view this hotel offers. The only I would say needs improvement is the bathroom and the food options. The bathroom smelled like mold and sewage. The breakfast was limited and the lunch and dinner menu was not much to choose from. But the staff was kind and they had an on-site concierge that could book reasonably priced tours. So it wasn’t a bad price for the stay.

The location and the hotel are excellent, right in front of the entrance to the pyramids, the only negative point is the noise, as it is a room with views of the pyramid and there is no sound insulation, there were 3 nights when I could not sleep. A room at the back will always be a better option, even without the view of the pyramids.

Hotel overbooked and don't give what was promised
I want to let future travelers to Giza know about the work system of the hotels. I rented the Premium Double room with 2 Queen beds for 4 people - as soon as I finished making the reservation through hotels.com I received confirmation from the hotel in which they told me that they were giving me a triple room -I booked the hotel two weeks in advance- I contacted Hotels.com, the agent wanted to help me but couldn't do much and suggested I contact the hotel directly. I did so, and well they reconfirmed that they would give me the room I had booked (I have all the records of my conversations through WhatsApp) Right before my last flight connection from Doha to Cairo (2 hour flight) i contact the hotel again to let them know that in 3 hours I would be in a hotel with my family and that I wanted to make sure that my room was ready. His response was "your triple room is ready" I told the manager/owner again that I rented the Premium Double room for 4 people and she told me not to worry that everything was in order. When we arrived at the hotel exhausted at approximately 8pm they told us that the hotel was overbooked and that they only had a triple room and that there was nothing they could do. They basically left us with no options at 8pm at night after traveling for more than 17 hours in an area that we did not know. Friends had already told us that in Giza they use this system and that they really do not mind leaving you without a room.Hotels.com, please I want you to be aware

The hotel is right in front of the pyramids. The buffet breakfast was good. Our room, bathroom and shower were spacious. The elevator is very small. At least they have in service. The open terrace is great for relaxing and view the pyramids. The new GEM is about a 20 minute away walk. There's a Mobil gas station where you can buy snacks, water, sodas, coffee. For shops it's about a 10-15 minute walk. The staff makes you feel at home. Thank you Turquoise 😊.

Bad customer service
I was very disappointed with this property. I had flight issues and had emailed the property about my delayed arrival (they responded with it's not a problem). Once I finally arrived at 3am, Im told by the front desk that they gave away my room even though I had my reservation booked for a few more days. He tried to blame me even though I showed exchanged message with whoever is responding from the hotel, my reservation dates and everything. I was eventually accommodated to a smaller room but from that bad interaction I just was disappointed from at the customer service. I wasn't even offered anything for my troubles. I never had this happen to me before traveling to 30+ countries.

Professional staff. Breakfast was delicious. The food was good as well. Very accommodating with little kids. The view was beautiful from our room. The entire staff was always helpful. Bringing our bags to the car or getting us milk/water. We had a great experience. Emad and rebek even gave us an hour as our Careem driver was coming late to bring us to the airport.

Close to Pyramid but away from other attractions & city centre. Not much shops & restaurants around. My experience is unfortunately the worst. My late flight scheduled to arrive Cairo from Luxor at 10:30pm but delayed for 2 hours. I arrived the hotel at 2am to check in. The hotel 1st told that me my room was no longer available because we had missed the check in date and next they said that our booking was not in the system. They only agreed to provide us a room when we threaten to complain to Expedia. Then we waited in the lobby for more than an hour them to prepare the room. At the end, we got the room at 4am, 2 hours after we arrived the room & were extremely exhausted that we gave up the morning itinerary to rest. In addition, this hotel didn't allow change of booking on Expedia. I made a mistake to book as 1 person instead of 2 but couldn't made the change in Expedia. I tried to send message to the hotel on Expedia but they didn't reply. At the end, they charged us $25 while the price difference in booking is only a few bucks & the room actually was of the same grade.

Who are these 5 star reviewers?
The hotel isn't even close to what some of the reviews are saying. We walked into the hotel at around 2 AM, only to be told that our booking was cancelled. Who cancelled it? They didn't have an answer. Why Hotels.com shows the booking active? They didn't have an answer. Instead, they said they will take us to a nearby hotel just 4 minutes away. We refused and tried to call Hotels.com to clear this up. All of a sudden they found a room for us but we have to wait 5 minutes. The 5 minutes turned into long 3 hours. We waited for 3 hours until we got a room. We booked two rooms for three nights and we already messaged the hotel we will be checking in late. That means they had plenty of time to get the room ready for us. While we were waiting two other couples walked in and told the same thing. One of them took up the offer for another hotel and walked to the hotel. It is a run down hotel with mediocre breakfast. The light fixture in the washroom is hanging down by the electric wire. All of these don't matter for us at this point because this booking made us to question Hotels.com reviews in the future. How they managed to get these glorifying reviews? It's not a cheap hotel trying their best to accommodate their customers, something else is going on here. They are not even trying to be nice.

Great view of the Pyramids from the room and from the roof top restaurant! Excellent for a night or two. Food quality at the restaurant is very good and and the staff was great. Bathroom in the room could be definitely better, it is too small and the room was not that big as well. Otherwise had a good time staring and taking pics of the Pyramids all the time!
