This hotel was an okay place to stay, especially since I got a very good deal! I stayed here for 5 nights, and due to availability I had to stay my remaining 2 nights at the Mena House. About the Sofitel - The rooms are fabulous with a nice balcony area looking out onto the wonderful gardens and also the... more

The location to the Pyramids of Giza was great and the hotel was nice with restaurants, bars and nice staff. The location in other ways however isn't great. It's about 30-45min from Cairo sites (i.e. Egyptian Museum) and there were very few places we could actually walk to outside of the hotel due to the traffic. It is a bit... more

Exceeded our expectations given the dilapidated condition of the general city area. We arrived at 4.30 am and were pleasantly surprised when we were offered a room at 6.30 am (normal check in time was 2 pm). The hotel manager was extremely polite and obliging. The room was of 5 star quality and had a very comfortable bed although the... more

We stayed for 2 nights in May on a half board basis. Food was good, plenty of choice at breakfast & dinner. We tried Romeo & Juliet restaurant , hubby had a very good steak and the rest of the food was of a reasonable standard. Bar area is very nice but service was s l o w. The hotel... more

Stayed at this resort at the beginning and the end of my time in Egypt. I will share my thoughts on both stays. This was the first place we went after getting off the plane. I had been up so long by this time that I would not have cared if it had been a Motel 6! I just wanted... more

The hotel is within a short walking distance to the Great Pyramids & Sphinx, but prepared to be hassled as you are walking out the front door. However, the view of the pyramids as you walk towards it, is pretty surreal--if you can ignore everyone trying to approach you. The hotel is in okay condition and the rooms are modern... more

After a very long two hours to the hotel from the airport we were met with refreshing free drinks as we waited for our room. The reception lobby was extremly large and clean. We were taken to our room and our bags delivered later. We had a beautiful ground floor room with our own garden. the children loved the pool... more

Looks lovely and the rooms and grounds are good. Service in the restaurant very disappointing. Staff seemed to have a couldn't care less attitude. We arrived on a busy weekend and the public areas were dirty with overflowing waste bins. There is a piano situated within an indoor pool and the pool was filthy with rubbish on the bottom and... more

I was not very impressed with the Sofitel Le Sphinx. Check in was terrible. We were not even indicated which way to go to our room. They were only interested in my Amex. Rooms are small and clean. They have been partly renovated, and are OK. The swimming pool area is small. Should you look for peace and quiet, forget... more
