Nice little hotel with a nice indian restaurant; comfortable rooms..quiet place a bit far from the historical centre. Very pleasant staff and cheap wireless internet that works very well.

We stayed at the Karvin for one night before leaving Egypt because it was close to the airport. It is rather secluded and located within
a quiet street in Heliopolis. While the hotel is very basic in terms of facilities, the staff were super-friendly and very courteous from the moment we arrived. Soon after getting to our room, the manager personally came up and asked us if we would like to be upgraded to a one bedroom apartment for no extra cost, and we did. The apartment was spacious, clean and tidy. The buffet breakfast was not that good, and there were no views from the rooftop cafe because the whole floor was surrounded by a big plastic covering. Because of the lack of facilities and its distance from downtown Cairo, I wouldn't recommend it to anyone planning a longer stay in Cairo. It is more suited for a quick stop-off, or for those who need to catch a flight the next morning, because it is close to the airport. It was a fairly good hotel overall for anyone looking for something basic and clean.

We chose this hotel as it was close to the main bus station (for Dahab) and to airport too. The staff were super friendly and helpful even helping us book and collect our bus tickets. The food at the italian resturant was good and there was a greay choice for breakfast. Rooms were clean, quiet and modern.
Great stop for easy access to airport and bus station.

Thanks

The hotel is situated in the Heliopolis area, close to Airport and very accessible to Main highways to Pyramid, Islamic Cairo and Downtown area. The hotel is walking distance to Horreya street and to korba street shopping areas. I t is also walking distance to the Baron Palace. The hotel is good value for money. Rooms are very clean. The indian restaurant is not to be missed especially for lunch where you can enjoy the day light.
