Arabian Nights Reviews

woooooooooooooooooooooh,there was a local wedding in front of the hotel,and they invited me to attend it,it was very nice to attend such Egyptian wedding and enjoy singers ,belly dancers and Egyptian food .the atmosphere inside the hotel was nice..my room was clean.I liked my breakfast very much.all what u need in one place

nice breakfast,away from tahreer square,friendly staff,good prices,they helped me to find a room where i can use wireless connection although the hotel was mostly full,i really appreciate what they did, and i recommend this hotel to everyone searching for nice time down town near islamic cairo :)

Our stay at Arabian Nights was truely excellent from start to finish. I really could not fault any part of the experience. The staff especially were friendly and extremely helpful with all the questions we had regarding the local area and Cairo in general as well as helping us practise our rusty Arabic. The bathroom facities were also very good with a powerful shower and we both looked forward to our included breakfast every morning. I would recommend the hostel to anyone coming to Cairo.

I wasn't sure what to expect when we got there, but the rooms, although basic, were clean and the staff were friendly and the location was awesome! Definitely a good choice if you're looking for a place to stay that is close to everything without wanting to spend too much money.

they added some changes to breakfast which made it very healthy .....also i enjoyed having SHISHA with reasonable price... it was good to have heater in my room ....they have drop off service to the airport which was good..... 24H hot water...the area is old but u can enjoy walking around it

As I travel a lot and have stayed in many hotels...I was hoping this would live up to exception..I was wrong..this hotel has everything and more.Staff..very helpful nothing is a bother day or night they want to help you with anything they can...

prices were good. This was not just a hostel, it was a home away from home. I could not have been looked after better. I couldn't recommend it more highly. A little out of the center"15 Min" but it is OK . Exceptional value.

everything was good..... i really enjoyed my time at this hotel

I really enjoyed my stay in this hotel. everything is calm and cool...... having healthy breakfast on the roof while enjoying fresh air and the sun is very good facility. they helped me on organizing my tours with reasonable prices. many thanks for the staff they were friendly and helpful:) .

The place is decent and well located. Staff is nice and trustworthy. Though, stay away from their tour operator, managed by this guy called Mohammed. He seems nice but tried to cheat us of money for the smallest of things. And quotes Really high for the tours. You are better off planning yourself.

excellent hotel.Everything you would expect from a youth hostel , only ten times better! Friendly , welcoming atmosphere and staff and spotless clean rooms.Definitely, recommended! .near islamic area.

The staff were brilliant, very quick in responding to any queries or problems and had great advice on sightseeing, transport and eating.Excellent cost/benefit.

I only stayed one night at the hotel, but it was amazingly nice. on my return i stayed therefore again. the stuff is helpful, dorms are nice and clean.also excellent for interested travelers they have organized get together. the location is top and the main sights in walking distance (anyway the best form to see the city).it was just a great stay! i will come back!!

I have got what I paid for 100%. It is very close to Islamic Cairo which is one of the most beautiful district of Cairo. The hostel was clean and the staff were very friendly.

The hotel is clean and friendly. The staff always recommended me where to eat the best (and safest) food. This is an area of astounding historical importance with ancient murals from the Fatimid and ‘Abbasid dynasties and intertwining market streets like El-Moez al Din Allah al-Fatimi near the Khan el Khalili market. The tenants as a whole were a great mix: students from abroad like me, adventurous backpackers looking for a local experience and even Arabs from the ME.

I had a wonderful time at this hotel. The area is full of culture, I feel like I experienced so much more than if I had stayed in Downtown Cairo. There are so many fascinating places to visit near the hotel. The hotel itself looks brand new. My room had tile floors and was very clean. The colors were bright and cheerful, it was nice to return to it every night. They have a large welcoming common room downstairs. It was easy to spend hours there chilling out and chatting with other guests.

Receptionist was very friendly, service was very good, the staff makes all its possible to help! Hotel is also very close to the bazar zone, hotel drivers are very kind and helpful. One point: it must be better known by the taxi drivers, they have a lot of difficulties to find the hotel. Advertising to the taxi drivers based at the airport and at the train station would be useful... Internet by WIFI is working fine.

Avoid. It's the only hotel that refused to refund a cancelled night, despite telling them the day before. They also tried to charge me 130 for the room, not the 75 booked through HostelWorld, and pay for the 'free' airport picked up. Beware of shared bathrooms - either being refurbished, don't lock, don't flush or flood. However, the free cups of tea were very welcome.

Nice hostel, nice staff, well organised, good breakfast, cheap price, peaceful and beatiful location
