We have just returned from a trip to Egypt and we stayed 2 nights in Ramses Hilton. The service was average and the room looks very old and it sure need an update, namely the bathroom.
The view to the Nile and Piramids was very nice from the 20th floor were we stayed.

I went on a tour of Egypt and Jordan with a friend, and we stayed at the Ramses Hilton in Cairo for a total of six nights in three separate stays. In general the hotel was above average, but had a couple of drawbacks. We stayed on the Executive Level floor, thanks to my Hilton Honors card, so the room was very nice, with a Nile view from the 23rd floor. I really appreciated the bath, since I tend to take long showers.

The lobby of the Ramses can be quite crowded at times, with large tour groups arriving and leaving on a regular basis. Restaurants were a definite plus, including one of the best Indian restaurants I have ever visited -- both the food and service were extraordinary.

Staff were very service oriented and friendly, especially helpful were the two young women at the Hilton Honors desk and the waiter and lifeguard at the pool (both named Ahmed!) who made my afternoons very pleasant by the pool.

As others have mentioned, the hotel is located a short distance from the Egyptian Museum, but managing to get there through the crazy Cairo traffic is NOT easy.

We stayed at the Ramses Hilton on our recent tour of Egypt. The hotel and rooms were clean and the staff efficient. Our room had a great view of Cairo and the hotel pool area.We ate at Windows of the World restaurant,food and service was excellent. We would stay here again.

The hotel is good for the money and location! However, if you are expecting an updated and modern Hilton - You might consider somewhere else. The rooms are dated a bit as is the building...but not enough that made me hate the place. I stay in Hilton's all over the world and the location, view and cost made it worth the stay! Staff was plenty friendly!
