On a recent business trip to Alex, Egypt I had a week-end free and decided to travel to Cairo. I did not realise that over week-ends (Fri and Sat in Egypt),and without booking, it is almost impossible finding decent , reasonably priced hotels anywhere in Cairo. My South African travel agent recomended the Le Passage (formerly Movenpick Cairo Airport), unfortunately I did not get the rate as advised by my agent. I decided to accept the hotel's rack rate of $201/night in the Executive club section, apparently these were only rooms that were available on 29 February to 2 March 08. Most other hotels also offered me the executive rooms at rates ranging from $200 to $300 per night. I guess that's their marketing and sales strategy when you desperately need room-(once you check-in dont expect to be transferred to standard rooms)
Anyway, the hotel has a fantastic lobby, but the rooms don't quite match the ambiance of the lobby. The rooms and bathrooms need to be refurbished in view of rates charged.
The location is almost in the carpark of Cairo Airport, but was pleasantly surprised that there was no disturbance from plane noises. The hotel has beautifully laid out gardens and a very large pool area. Over the 3 days I stayed at this hotel, there were several weddings and other special occassions celebrated by the locals, and this offered me the opportunity to appreciate the Egyptian culture. I found the staff very friendly (staff at lobby bar). and accommodating. I recommend this hotel if you want to stay close to the airport and be away from the hustle & bustle of downtown Cairo. You are in close proximity to "City Stars" , a new upmarket shopping mall, and Roxy Mall. Expect to pay 50LE for a 45 minute taxi ride to the city centre in peak traffic.

“Convenient but noisy”

Le Passage has apparently changed hands recently and this has been associated with poor staff training.
It is situated right in the airport which is convenient but the room we had was noisy with the piano in the lobby intrusive into the evening, there was a party going on somewhere near and the staff were chatting in the corridor into the early hours.
The reception staff do not speak English all that well and the checking out is slow. The rooms could do with freshening up.
If you want convenience, it's OK.

We stayed at Le Passage (formerly Movenpick Heliopolis) in Cairo for about 6 hours on our way back from Libya. The hotel has a free shuttle bus (a white mini-van), but we couldn't find it in the airport carpark (it was 3:30am though). I think "Le Passage" is written on only one side of the bus in English, so check both sides. We ended up paying 40EGP for a taxi - its a two minute drive, so if you do take a taxi don't pay too much. You have to put your luggage through a scanner before you enter the foyer. The room was ok - the bed and pillows were comfortable. The bathroom wasn't so good. I thought there was no hot water until I realised the hot tap had a blue symbol on it. At breakfast my husband sat down and was then told he had to move to the other side of the room. After breakfast we were told we had to sign for 70EGP despite breakfast being included in the room charge. We weren't charged for the breakfast at check-out, but it was confusing to have to sign for something that looked like a bill. "
