The staff were superb, friendly, and honest. They provided the best service we recieved from every business we interacted with while in Egypt. The rooms need some updating but unlike the 5 star we stayed at for one night, the shower at City View worked.

The City View is unique and has a dated charm that makes you feel that you are indeed in Cairo. It is convenient for shopping and close to a 101 places to eat but the best the hotel has to offer is it's staff who are so friendly and helpful. Can't wait to go back again. It is noisy but then you can't be in the centre of a city and expect no noise - especially for those prices

We found that the staff to be very friendly and extremely helpful when requesting travel information and they made our time in Cairo very pleasant and comfortable and I would recommend this hotel for this reason. Situated directly accross from the Egyptian Museum it is quite a lively area with western style fast food comforts close by. There is easy access to the metro which is 5mins away after you have carefully navigated your way accross the busy streets. The Nile and Cairo Tower are a pleasant walk away and are nice to do in the evening. Not far from the hotel is the renowned restaurant Felfela which is a great place to try more traditional Egyptian food. No frills hotel, but clean and welcoming environment.

The room was neat, modern, comfortable, safe. I came from the us via Tunis, to visit an Egyptian friend in Cairo. At the time of booking the hotel online, I observed no notice of the fact that Egyptian nationals are not allowed in the rooms of foreigners. I found this highly inconvenient and upsetting, and this threw a last minute inconvenience in my trip.

Room was clean and air-conditioned. Very disappointing stay, disorganised service, no breakfast box despite asking twice to 2 different memebers of staff, Room did not have an external window, credit card machine not working in the morning- husband had to rush out to get money before we left for the airport and taxi service did not know which terminal to go to. Would not stay here again.

A pleasant surprise. I've stayed in a number of lower-end hotels in downtown Cairo; this was easily the best. As a business traveler, wifi is essential for me, and the signal was strong. The staff was extremely helpful and accommodating. I'll stay there again.

The City View Hotel is a very comfortable place to stay in Cairo. It is conveniently located opposite the Egyptian museum and a short walk to restaurants and shopping. The Manager Tiger Lofty and his staff are friendly and helpful at all times.The rooms are comfortable with modern and very clean bathrooms. They are also quite spacious and some have a small balcony. We stayed on two different occasions, once with a balcony and once without. The room without the balcony was a slightly bigger room. The buffet breakfast is very nutritious and includes hot dishes, salads, cheeses, olives, eggs and a variety of different breads and spreads as well as cereal and yoghurt. Each day there is something different on the menu. We had a wonderful stay!
