After reading trip advisor reviews for the President Hotel, Cairo, I thought I would give this hotel the benefit of the doubt. Unfortunately I was very disappointed. The first room we were given was disgusting, I would not even let my dog live there. The second one was still unacceptable but after 21 hours flying we took it. The carpet... more

On returning from our fourth long stay at the President once again I would like to say that this is one of the best hotels we stay in. It may not be the Grand Hyatt, and does not cost the same, but the welcome and service, as always, is second to none. The staff remember us when we return (no... more

We stayed here as a base in Cairo city whilst on a photo shoot. As this was the last available hotel in the city towards the end of a religious holiday we didn't have great expectations. We were proved right! Whilst the reception looks fairly clean and tidy and the staff are, in the main, very helpful there were audible... more

This is good value for money in a great location for Cairo. Zamalek is peaceful for Cairo, not too far from what you want to see and definitely the best area to stay in. We ate in 4 different, but all good-excellent, restaurants within 10 minutes walk of this hotel. That said the breakfast at President was excellent - fresh... more

We were a little shocked by the rooms at first as they weren't what we expected but once you get past the initial shock and realise that you're in Cairo and not Melbourne, we were happy with our stay. It's all about the experience. Positives: * Very Friendly Staff and Good Service * Great Location * Very Reasonably priced *... more

Well, hate to be arrogant and don't like giving bad reviews but..... as stated above a 3 star by Egyptian standards if far off from what were used to in US. In the US I think of a 3 star as a Holiday Express or something similiar, this is far different from Cairo standars. Even our Eyptian guide laughed and... more

DO NOT STAY AT THIS DUMP. Remeber I told you so. Bad small breaksfast. Plaster & paint peeling from walls & ceiling. The girls on our tour said the bedsheets were not even changed. BAD. BAD. Smal dark dirty bathrooms. more

Me and my boyfriend stayed here for a couple of nights, and found it was a great base for exploring Cairo. Zamalek (an Island in the river Nile) is a great place to seek respite from the hubbub and hassle of Cairo. The Island is home to many international embassies, and as a result it's an extremely safe location to... more
