The place was well located in downtown Cairo. The room was spacious and clean and we liked the big terrace. However the whole building was being given a make over and often the lift did not work . The staff were very helpful, especially Shady,

Just like I expected it. Staff are very friendly and helpful. They are always there of you need help or anything. I would stay again with my eyes closed.

This place is conveniently located just across the street from the Egyptian museum and within walking distance of a bunch of restaurants and shops. The staff was kind and accommodating and I found the property easy to locate despite what some other reviews have said. There is signage outside the building and the property address comes up on Google maps and Uber. Also comfortable rooms.

It is difficult to find the entrance to the hotel from the address alone, you should add a picture. Rooms are comfortable with plenty of space and good wifi.

Right across the street from the Egyptian Museum. Room was very nice. The only negative is the access as there is no sign outside....our taxi driver didn't want to let us out there, but luckily he asked a man on the street who pointed out the entrance

10/10 Exceptional

This hotel surprised us. Just like others reviews say the building looks weird when you get in as there is some construction but the two hotel levels are super new and clean. The room was really comfortable and surprisingly quiet for being such a central Cairo location. The area was really comfortable to move around and visit the main areas, even walking if you fancy it. And the staff were really kind. The one surprise is that the restaurant didn’t seem to be open but I highly recommend this hotel, really worth it!

8/10 Very good

Nice place

Very welcoming and helpful hosts, they went out of their way to accommodate our needs. Good english. Good location. Nice room. Not very well equipped, and shower dirty. But compared to the rest of Egypt it was overall a lovely room. Floor 8 in the elevator.
Lyndi, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The Al Madiafa is a pleasant hotel, across the road from the Cairo Museum. It is clean, the staff are friendly, and unassuming in many ways. The photo shown is the back of the hotel. It might be a bit hard to find, as the entrance is a little hidden. And it would benefit from a sign in English indicating that the Hotel reception was on the 8th Floor. But Rahab, Hany, Mohammed and Ahmed were very helpful and kind.
William, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The hotel is a 2 or 3 star hotel in downtown Cairo. Location is great. Shops, restaurants, banks, the Nile, easy access to call an Uber. Our room was big enough for four people. AC was great!. The room had a microwave, refrigerator and great views of Cairo with the Nile. I believe the hotel is a share apartment building and had what looked like businesses on the first two floors. The hotel lobby is on the eight floor. Surprisingly our room was across the lobby. It was very quite. I'll repeat again. The location is in downtown and superb.

6/10 Good

We stayed at this hotel for 7 nights and it was ok but I would not rate it highly. Good points: Clean room. Great location. Staff ok Bad points: Water in shower going from cold to very scolding hot randomly Downstairs being renovated which creates a lot of noise and dust No hairdryer available as they only had one and it blew up Could not get breakfast one day as it was only available after 8am whereas we ging to leave for an excursion at 7:30am You have to be in the room whilst it gets cleaned which is inconvenient as we were out everyday No USB charge points in the rooms which in this day and age is an absolute must. Only one lift working some days and it was also used by the builders Satellite TV only worked intermittently as the signal was poor WiFi was very poor as well. As a family of four in two separate rooms there was not enough space for our clothes so we lived out of the suitcase basically. We would not stay here again in its current state.
Jettinder, 7-night trip

2/10 Poor

Good rooms, bad service

Going through check-in they were asking a lot of questions (and many times the same ones at it seems we are 2 male friends) then later saying in Arab « that shouldn’t be a problem because one is French ». We didn’t understand what was all the fuss about. But they had us sign extra documents we never had to while staying 10 days in 5 different hotels in Egypt. They took us to our room and alas, the bed was a double, not a twin as booked. They almost didn’t grant us our room thinking we were gay (we felt uncomfortable as they were looking to us weirdly), then said they couldn’t have anything arranged so we were stuck with a double bed. My friend is a hectic sleeper - sleeping on the same bed isn’t a viable option anyway. They provided us bed sheet and a blanket so one of us could sleep on the floor (yes crazy best option they could do). Though they had another double room available, they didn’t want to correct their wrong and let us have our stay be “halal” by their views. They also have a restaurant so managing a free meal as compensation was possible, yet nothing. The room itself was good (1006), enough electric outlets and storage. It’s also very well located. WiFi on the other hand was extremely weak, my speed test at 1am gave DL 0,49 MB/s, UP 0,02 MB/s - don’t expect anything more than reading email. Conclusion : great priced option for a downtown room but clearly not LGBT friendly and not professional enough handling their mistakes.

La atención es buena, siempre hay que dar propina, la habitación era muy confortable, lo único la bañera que le Falta más higiene. De todas las opciones fue la mejor, excelente ubicación frente al Museo del Cairo
Restaurante con variedad, las carnes tienen rico sabor pero son embutidos. Los vegetales y el arroz delicioso
Con el mejor Chofer del mundo ABRAHAN, el está frente al edificio, el muy amistoso, te lleva a los mejores sitios, es puntual. También te lleva a las pirámides y te recomienda guías turísticos, pueees regatear precios; nos costo 120 E⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Picture on site is NOT hotel but great staff

The picture on Hotels.com of the hotel actually shows the Old Egyptian Museum which is around the corner, so we were very surprised when our Uber dropped us off in front of a nondescript building. But the staff was incredibly friendly and the room was clean and comfortable. We spent our time exploring Cairo and its amazing sites and monuments so didn’t need a fancy hotel. The location was outstanding and for the price we can’t complain. The balcony was spectacular!

Aunque esta un poco escondido, tiene una relación calidad-precio estupenda. El hotel comienza en la 6ª planta del edificio. El personal es muy amable. Tienen agua de cortesía, té y café soluble. Jabones unidosis de cortesía. No tienen secador de pelo (quizá se pueda pedir en Recepción). Si vuelvo a El Cairo, será mi primera opción. Gracias por atendernos a las 6:30 de la mañana y cedernos inmediatamente las habitaciones sin tener que esperar a las 14h.
