Great place!

When our taxi driver couldn't find the exact location of the hotel two of the front service staff were already looking for us on the street. The whole time we were there we received amazing customer service! Breakfast was the best we had in Egypt. Great location, can be a bit noisy at night but that's normal for Cairo.

The property itself was good, but the staff was atrocious. It started off with checking in and being treated different than others being checked in. It became worse the longer we stayed one night while taking a shower. They decided to turn off the water. Then when we called to see what was going on the front desk guy whose name starts with a a said oh OK I will go turn it back on then when we ordered breakfast, they brought half of it and I had to complete. Despite us telling them we wanted room service every other day at a specific time they insisted on calling us every morning, knowing that we were up all night because of Ramadan to ask if we wanted room service. And when we had to check out because of the treatment from the staff they added insult to injury by telling us they were going to refund the unused nights as a way of saying sorry which happened to be an additional nine nights we never got the money back. We also reached out for help from Expedia and they did not help.

I enjoyed my stay at the excellent-value Sama Hotel. The staff is very friendly and helpful and can assist you with organising your tours. They assigned me a friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable guide, Nasser. The hotel is very clean and quiet and is situated in a very safe area with plentiful restaurants, cafes, eateries, and an ATM just across from the hotel.

We had booked a quad room (with four beds) for our family of four well in advance—three months before our stay—but unfortunately, our experience upon arrival fell far short of expectations. We were informed that the quad room was unavailable and were offered a triple room and a single room instead. While the triple room was acceptable, the single room was a smoking room, and the smell was overwhelming and unfit for us to stay in. We declined the single room and had to manage with just the triple room, but the hotel was unwilling to provide a rollaway bed or even an extra blanket for our family. To add to the frustration, we were still charged the quad room rate despite not receiving what we had paid for—a non-smoking quad room for our entire family. On the second night, the hotel finally moved us to a quad room, but the inconvenience and discomfort of the first night were unacceptable. For a reservation made months in advance, we expected better communication, preparation, and care from the hotel.

Nuestra estancia fue buena en general. Contratamos al hotel la recogida desde el aeropuerto, el chico que nos recogió llego una media hora después de la llegada de nuestro vuelo, y ademas nos llevo al hotel equivocado, eso si fue muy amable y luego de su error se ofreció a llevarnos al hotel correcto. Al llegar al hotel nos fue un poco difícil identificarlo por la falta de señalización adecuada, solo un pequeño poster con el nombre del hotel en el frente del edificio. La entrada del hotel tristemente esta muy sucia, para acceder al elevador se debe subir una pequeña escalera que igualmente pertenece sucia. Los elevadores del hotel son pequeños y a menudo dejaban de funcionar. La habitación era de tamaño normal pero bien equipada. El baño pequeño pero nuevo. El desayuno estaba incluido y lo llevaban cada mañana a la habitación cuando se solicitaba a la recepción. El desayuno comprendía pan, huevo hervido, verduras y yogurt. Lo mejor del hotel es su staff siempre dispuestos y atentos a resolver cualquier inquietud. En una ocasión me quede sin cambio para pagar un taxi y fueron muy amables al prestarme el dinero, que al siguiente día les repuse. El area alrededor del hotel esta llena de restaurantes y mercados locales. Creo que es un hotel para alguien familiarizado con la cultura del país, el entorno alrededor del hotel puede ser estresante para el visitante.

I saw they great reviews and decided to book this hotel. When i got there it was more run down than in the pictures. The evelvator is sketch and scary, cats run in and out of the hotel. It sounded by many stores but i did not feel safe in the area. The rooms are small and cold despite having a heater. I checked out within 4 hours of staying there. The owner had agreed to refund me and now when expedia contacted him, now he refuses to answer his phone. And i paid for 8 days in a hotel that i spent 4hrs in. Go anywhere but here, spend more money and get what you paid for.

I was so incredibly happy with my stay at Sama Hotel. It exceeded my expectations in every way. The staff were absolutely brilliant (especially Ali!), so kind and helpful. The location is great, the breakfast is delicious, the rooms are clean and the beds are amazingly comfortable. As a solo female traveller especially, I felt so safe here. It was all perfect. I’ll definitely be staying here whenever I’m in Cairo. 10/10!

The staff were lovely and very accommodating. Rooms are all new and super clean, great soundproof doors on the balconies, since the plaza is very busy and loud, the bed was Fantastic and comfortable. Quick to respond to requests and always with a smile. Would definitely stay there again as it’s quite central to a lot of the monuments to visit, away from the pyramids. Breakfast was served in your room but could be a bit more generous with the portions of fool and falafel :) Thank you everyone at Sama and keep up the great work!

Thumbs up👍

It’s nice place in the middle of everything, very convenient to do shopping many restaurants and cafes,the only thing could be disturbing if you are an early sleeper it is a bit noisy at nigh and the door to the balcony doesn’t have good insulation. Some suggestions: It will be great if they have a hairdryer and extra roll of toilet paper inside the room and they definitely need a sign for the the guests to guide them where they can reach the reception When entering the building there is no sign that the hotel is on the sixth floor, you will be wondering how to find the hotel where.

Fine once you’re inside

This place certainly doesn’t have much ‘curb appeal’ and you have to fight through a fast food restaurant to get to the hotel door, but the room was clean and spacious and service is great.
