This hotel was just awful. The tour company I booked a first class package with (Summit Tours) put me in this hotel for the last 4 nights of my package, promising for the first two days that they would move me but they never did.

The outside was charmless. The desk clerks couldn't care less about you being there. The decor was straight out of the 50's and there were stains on the rug and chips out of the bathtub. The first night there was no hot water and it was only warm after that.

Housekeeping would try to enter your room at least 3-4 times a day to put in new towels but I never saw them clean. I had to use the chain to keep them from coming in when I wanted some privacy. The hallway was littered with empty soda bottles and napkins from room service trays that were not picked up when they fell off when the tray was collected. Only one of the elevators worked.

The restaurant (which I only ate at for breakfast) watered down the juices. They never refilled your coffee, you had to get it yourself. The selection for the buffet breakfast was very limited: for example, if you wanted eggs you had the choice of hard-boiled eggs kept warm in a pan of water on a steam table. That's it. You did not have the option of ordering off a menu, they didn't have one for breakfast. I also got the pharoah's curse from a hamburger I ordered through room service for dinner.

If you need to get any money you have to walk next door to the Le Meridian to use an ATM, which is not very comfortable if you are a woman alone, as you have to walk past two groups of Egyptian Tourist Police. The gift shop overcharged by about half.

They had a plaque with four stars from the Egyptian Tourist Authority, which is a joke because each place determines what rating they will receive. This place wouldn't get one star from a AAA book for motels.
In fact, I don't think they could even pay to get in a AAA book.

STAY AWAY FROM THIS HOTEL!
