Breakfast was good. Service was average. Rooms were spacious and clean. Noise from outside dogs barking, cars honking was non stop. The interconnected rooms, though closed off, neighbours were smoking and it kept coming into our rooms. I would not stay here again

The main issue was the fact we were given a smoking room on a smoking floor when a non smoking room was requested on the booking. The corridor really smelt of cigarettes and the smell seeped through the doors of our suites every morning from neighbouring rooms. The room itself was tidy so issues there. The walk from the main entrance into the hotel to the lifts wasn’t very pleasant either as you have to walk past a designated smoking area on the left, again the reception area smelt of cigarettes. The hotel staff in general were friendly but disappointing there aren’t enough non smoking rooms available (we were told all non smoking rooms were fully booked). It is a lovely hotel but the smell of cigarettes everywhere was a problem for us.

We had a very enjoyable stay at Sofitel Cairo Downtown Nile, which is well located for exploring the city while still feeling calm once you are inside. The Club Lounge on the 22nd floor is worth considering if you are booking. The team there were consistently attentive, and Ahmed in particular made us feel very welcome. The food offering in the lounge was good quality. The sushi, when available, was very popular, and the mango juice is a must try. It was fresh and genuinely excellent. Our room was spacious and comfortable, with a very good shower and plenty of space to relax after busy days sightseeing. Breakfast on the 3rd floor has a much wider selection than the lounge, with plenty of hot and cold options. It can get busy at peak times and clearing of tables was sometimes slow, so going slightly earlier may make for a smoother experience. We ate twice at Kamala, the Asian restaurant, and would recommend the sushi promotion. The chef tailored the sushi to our preferences, which made it feel more personalised and good value for what you receive. The pool area is calm and the water is heated, which is helpful in cooler months. It is a good space to unwind after sightseeing. I also had a 50 minute massage in the spa. It is on the expensive side compared to local prices, but convenient if you prefer to stay within the hotel. Overall, a comfortable and well run hotel with attentive staff and a particularly strong Club Lounge experience. A solid choice for a stay in downtow

PROS: Staff (concierge, valet, general) were respectful, courteous, knowledgeable; room was clean and fresh. Meal package was well worth the price with great views, great staff and great food (actual chefs in the kitchen)! CON: The bank staff onsite was rude, abrasive, not well organized and took forever for the simplest transactions, there would be tellers doing seeminglynothing while one person tends the line out the door, the atm just outside the hotels bank did not work, I almost deducted a star for this but the great service elsewhere in the hotel made up for it.

Only area you should stay in downtown Cairo…Modern hotel with modern amenities and extremely professional. Only downside is the constant cigarette smoke inside the building. That is a lot to experience 24/7 on your stay in Cairo! Be ready to negotiate and re-negotiate everything you do in the city 😂 It’s a bit too much, but try to have a little fun with it too 😉

Great staff and very friendly service. The lobby was nice decorated for the holiday season and was expansive. The room was spacious, but needed a couple of cleaning adjustments when we first checked in. The views of the Nile from our balcony was nice as well! The reason I can only rate this hotel a 4 star is they still allow smoking in their lobby. While there were no smoking signs in certain areas of the lobby, it was not enforced. Being from the US, I forget that smoking is allowed in other countries when we travel. It felt like everyone smoked!
