Stayed at this hotel on first night of our holiday prior to Nile cruise. Booked with Discover Egypt and were delighted with our brief stay. Yes it is a very old hotel but it is a classic, charming service and lovely aroma of brass polish when you arrive at reception. We had a top floor garden view room which was... more
