I stayed at the Hotel Victoria for four nights, and there were advantages and disadvantages to the experience, which it seems important to share. On the plus side, it is very centrally located, close to the Ramses train station (useful for trips to Alexandria etc), it has several quiet rooms away from Cairo's traffic noise, and it is a good... more

We stayed at the Victoria hotel at the start and end of a tour of Egypt with Intrepid Tours. The rooms were fairly basic, but clean and really no more or less than you expect when in Egypt. The hotel had a charming feel to it and you can’t help but feel it has past it’s hey day but you... more

Stayed at the Victoria in mid-February and early March at the beginning and end of an Intrepid Travel tour. Our rooms both times were large, clean and comfortable. The staff was accomodating; breakfast was predictable but filling, the public space is very attractive. The location, surrounded by hardware and auto parts stores, is not the best. But it is within... more

Our room was at the back and very quiet, simply furnished but roomy and comfortable. The bathroom was showing its age but it was clean and there was always plenty of hot water. If you like a bath, you should bring your own plug, as iyou do in a number of other middle eastern hotels). Fresh towels and bed linen... more

At first I was quite happy with the rooms and the quirky service at this hotel - especially when I dealt with the women who often worked at the front desk during the day. However, over the course of two days and three nights I experienced some critical problems at this hotel, significant enough to merit this review, as well... more

I had stayed at the Victoria several years ago and was very happy with price and service. I just walked in and reserved a room for one week. The staff at the Victoria is very friendly and accomodating. They doorman was very nice in arranging our taxi rides plus bargaining for a good price. I felt very safe while I... more

We just returned after our Egypt experience spending a total of eight nights at the Victoria. We actually started out there and returned at the end of our 6 week trip. I liked it a lot. The staff was very accomodating. We were allowed to store our excess baggage free of charge in a locked cubicle for several weeks. We... more

We spent a total of four nights at the Victoria, and we really loved it. The ambience of a bygone era is not often found in this price range, and we all found it rather charming. After reading the reviews here, I must say that I did not find it run down, but I may have different expectations than other... more

After reading some of the reviews I was a bit apprehensive but this is a hotel with a fair bit of old world style and ambience. On approach it does not look at all encouraging, being in a neighbourhood of shops selling all manners of machinery and car parts, but this is what makes its interior feel so elegant and... more
